I was seeing someone long distance for about six months until he recently moved here in January. I felt like things were going great and I was so excited about him moving since that meant he would be closer to me. Lately, everything has been falling apart...He took a position with a company and he really hates it. He told me that he feels terrible about himself and that he is a "loser" and he is "stupid". He complains that he has negative thoughts "racing through his mind." I offered to help him but he said "this is just something that I have to do on my own." He has completely stopped talking to me for the last three weeks. The last time I spoke to him he said, "I'm sorry I haven't been spending as much time with you as I would like, but it has absolutely nothing to do with you!". He once asked me not to give up on him and that a relationship with him was going to be hard. I have tried to text or call him once a week for the past three weeks. I don't want to be pushy and stress him out even more. Typically, no contact would make me assume that he has lost interest but it just seems too complicated to be that. Would he ignore me because of depression and/or stress?
