You did great, NF!
I agree with NF. It really does sound like he could be depressed. He sounds just like me when I'm depressed. My husband is more than willing to make all the decisions and he does when my depression sets in. It's really frustrating for him, I am well aware it is but am helpless to do anything about it if the depression is bad.
Could you have a calm, compassionate, gentle talk with him? Maybe let him know that you are concerned about him and think that maybe he needs to see someone? I would almost bet money that he's depressed.
He will need some gentle but consistent support to help him cope with this. Offer to start those walks again. Instead of or maybe between your aerobic visits, go on some extended strolls with him. Have some long talks. Maybe he'll open up more when there is no television to distract. Good luck to you and him.
