I was in love with a girl until she told me that she is still in love with her Ex. BOOHOO cry me a river.

This is serious! She is in love with a guy that had 2 girl friends already. They are dead now from suicide. I don't care if I ever get her back as a lover...she didn't love me in the first place. He broke up with her in December and she is still hung up on him.

She's manic, and then she faints. She talkative and then...not a word. She proclaims that she has abandonment issues. I think she's obsessed.

I need some ideas on how to bring this to her attention and break the cycle.

1- Locate your girl's position, face yourself to her location.
2- Turn 180 degrees and run.

I could imagine us going on a platonic trip to Suriname together :D

Trinidad is nice, too, especially away from the highly-populated western part.

I hate to have to be blunt and maybe have to crush your dreams, but as the Face of Boo says

Stay away from this woman, she is trouble.

While you may well be a nice person, it may not be healthy for you to try and rescue this woman from herself.

sounds awful and terrible just to walk away. 180 degrees it is.

I don't have the power to reverse someone's obsession.

It is not your job to bring it to her attention, and you can't break the cycle. You do not have the ability to control other people.
