Thank you for your responses so far. It is really difficult to see clearly right now because I feel that I have no real aptitude to handle this situation – for several reasons… I cannot be impartial.
I have told him that this very young girl needs therapy and he agrees. He has told her that she needs therapy. There are times that he has admitted he is not comfortable with the position he is in because he knows his family comes first but right now… because he literally feels responsible for her life – he is putting her first. He also admitted loving feelings towards her… he cares for her deeply. He is so very defensive of the situation he is in with her. I don’t think he can see clearly and if something were to happen to her – he would blame himself no matter what. I would rather not have him blame me if I were to tell him to end the friendship. Besides, he seems to be on a crusade to “do what is right.”
It hurts knowing he is closer to her emotionally. It is driving me crazy… I literally want to check his phone all the time to see what they talk about or put a listening device of some sort in his vehicle because I am just so lost as to what to do about this.
It is so difficult to know what to do without pushing him further away.
