It is important to recognize that you cannot control or fix others' emotional struggles. Supporting someone means being present and offering help when asked, but ultimately their healing is their responsibility. Taking care of your own well-being is essential while allowing others to work through their issues independently.

I feel sorry that you are having to deal with this,,, and I have always in the past thought that I could help other people get through their hard times, or issues. But now I have come to learn (the hard way) that I cannot do this anymore, and I dont even believe that anyone can. It seems like we have reached a stage where we have to stand back and let others go through their 'stuff'. We can be there for them if they need be, in support , and help (if they ask for it),,, but the hard yards have to be done by them.
Sitting idle doesnt sound like a good alternative, but I feel it is probably for the best. It sounds like he really really cares about you, and I really hope that he works himself out, and starts dealing with his emotions, or he will be the loser. It horrible having to wait around, I know,,, but perhaps he may come good and get through this hard stage in his life. You sound like a really nice person, and as selfish as it seems, I think it would be good if you concentrated all your energy on yourself. You are obviously the strongest one.
