To make you feel guilty? Is there a term for that or for a person who does that?

19. Passive aggressive.
By extending the "favor" to you, a passive aggressive type then has the perfect setup for blaming you for any/all consequences.....



"__A__ wouldn't have happened to me if I hadn't done __B__ for you. But that's okay, I don't mind. My life already sucks. I forgive you (or not)."
