You still
dont get it. You CANNOT make her happy... no matter how much energy you put into it.
You tried to make her happy and she still never was. You don't make other people happy. Period.
Best you can do is be true to yourself... and if the other person finds that attractive, fine. You still aren't making yourself attractive. The other person is doing all of that work.
She makes herself unhappy.
Look.. ill cut really deep to the chase here concerning suicide... its been a long, long time but I've been in a place of absolute emotional despair... I was diagnosed as clinically, chronically depressed once. Suicidal. And it wasn't a mind game to get attention. I felt like absolute crap and I felt like there was really no place else to turn.
I could spent HOURS finding ways to blame anyone and everyone around me for all the bad things I felt. Blame sticks easily to anything you want to throw it at... at least it seems to...
So... you are not responsible for her happiness or her unhappiness. Stop bearing that burden. It isn't yours. As long as you do that, she will continue to control you.
So... best you can do is let her family know that this is over and that she is lashing out. If they wish to blame you... well, that explains a lot about why she is where she is.
So... we can keep talking about this... but the answer is still that you need to step away and you need to let her own her behavior. Period.
