Usage of 'confused'

I'm confused that you've changed your mind so suddenly.
I am confused that she loves me.

I have seen both sentences and I was wondering if meaning of that clause is a cause like I am happy that I met you or an object like I I am sure that she will come.

I think that that you've changed your mind so suddenly is a cause and that she loves me is an object or 'confused that S + V' is not okay to use?

What do you native English speakers think? Thank you so much as usual in advance.

Consider this. I am confused by something. Your two sentences are 'casually' worded.

Thank you so much and then in 'I am confused that she loves me, that she loves me does not function as an object like 'I am sure that she will come here'' although the sentence is casually worded, but it functions for the meaning of because she loves me, right?

That one makes no sense to me, sorry.
