Does she want cupcakes, though? Or acai bowls? Or poems? Is that what a good therapeutic relationship is based on?
If you're going to stay with her, why not stop doing all the things you usually do and live for yourself, not someone else? Easier said than done, but if she doesn't like that either, then she's a bad choice all around.
You know that Seinfeld episode where George acts the opposite of his instincts and suddenly everything goes awesome for him? There's something to that.
