To delute (dilute) in someone's life

I'd say not. I don't know an English verb 'to delute'.
I agree with TT - it does not exist in any of the usual online dictionaries. And I can't think of a single word which means what you describe.
From another (now-deleted) thread you posted asking an identical question, it appears you meant to ask about the word "dilute." If so, please give us the complete sentence in which you would use the word, with some context.
We still need the sentence and context, Yaroslava.
In that context, "dilute" isn't the word you want. "Dilute" means to reduce the strength of something. For example, you dilute coffee - reduce its strength - by adding more water.
Is the word or expression you're looking for a negative? That it's not a good thing to be so heavily involved in her life?

Are you sure you don't mean "dissolve"?
Dissolve doesn't really fit. If we're working with the sentences in #8. You can't dissolve into someone's life. They could be "losing himself/herself" in the person's life.
That's how the text starts. Which seems to call for something with a pejorative feel.
Maybe: you are getting too involved in her life.
How about 'invading'? That has the pejorative ring.
It has a pejorative ring, but doesn't convey the original meaning of "to devote yourself to a person and forget about your personal interests."
No, I couldn't agree with you more. To pervade might be better.
You're drowning (yourself) in her life.
(P.S.: It's either "In Russian..." or "In the Russian language..." ) 
I would assume it meant to rid yourself of your stringed instruments, but having read further I would suggest "obsessed" in its various forms. It seems to fit most closely.
You are obsessing so much over that girl you've forgotten all your friends.
You are obsessed; she's not worth throwing your life away like this.
