Jesus /adv/, I am so lost and mindfucked right now. Green text time:

>We meet up, hang out, have fun
>I'm just used as a distraction though
>Her Job demands 70+ hours a week regularly
>She's Going through a divorce
>Ex still argues constantly on the phone to her
>Moved back in with parents
>Stress and shitty time for her
>I ask her out months later
>She says its too complicated
>Month later she kisses me
>I think I'm finally going to date her
>Suddenly, no contact for a month
>She does this sometimes
>Finally she responds
>She had a nervous breakdown.
>Her step-dad hit her
>She was being stalked by some PIs
>She needs to get out
>Spend all of yesterday helping her, calming her, doing my best
>She's got a friend who works for mental health with a spare room
>She's got the plan to go live with him, 3 hours away.
>Help her, but worry she'll get settled down there not here
I just feel so drained from the whole experience. It was scary seeing her so nervous and on-edge. She's always been so confident. I still live with my parents, so I can't move her in here. And I'm planning on moving out asap, but it might be too late if she gets settled down there.
I'm just so tired and drained.
I will support her in everyway I can. Visit her, let her come stay here, talk on the phone, whatever.
I guess I just needed to get this off my chest. She's sworn me to secrecy and I can't discuss it with my friends.
I'd go into a full length heartfelt dialogue here, but seeing as I can't get any responses on whether or not I'm dying or just experiencing some regular constipation I can't do it. /adv/ is a lot like the predicament you're in now. It's a one-way road where you give and others take. I'm really feeling like a kindred spirit to you right now. I'm supportive to the point in which it hurts, but I'm helpless to change my own situation and improve it because the other half isn't putting forth what they should. Goddamn I wish I could just shit.
>caring about someone this much
you're just being selfish through your 'selflessness' from what it seems
so forget about her
>being friends with someone you want to love
you're setting yourself up for disappointment

She likes me as more than a friend, that I know.
But it doesn't matter. I'm there for her as a person. Not as someone to get my dick wet in. I'm not asking how I can make sure we date or whatever.
I just need to talk about it. It was a scary and draining day. To see your friend who is normally so confident and happy, be such a scared and anxious girl.
There is obviously what I would want to happen. But greater than that, I want my friend to be better.

go to a fucking hospital mate.
Enjoy being her therapist while another guy comes along and fucks her.
