It's been 6 mo. since my boyfriend and I began. During this time when good - VERY good, but the bad has gone from "we'll get through this" to him being a "depressed, out of work, semi homeless, indecisive bag of emotions". I have tried to be supportive and inspiring, listened to circles of emotions without judgement and only when asked have I offered my advice or opinion. I know that this is a good man who loves me and we want a future together. I'm just feeling latley that his turmoil is all consumming and he is only happiest when around HIS friend's or family. Even when it's just the two of us - he just seems to be "TRYING HARD" & not even faking it well.
Before I can tell him this - I am asking for your advice - 1) Does it sound like the right thing to do & 2) how do I tell him without shattering him - that because of all this, I now need space? I know that I am going to be near death to do this to myself let alone him in his vulnerable state. I do not want to break up...
