Well after a reasonably positive meeting with my depressed partner over the weekend, a fairly positive outcome, and me left feeling that perhaps there was some improvement in him, I haven't heard from him again.
This is fairly concerning considering his current state of mind, living in motels, and, or so he sees it, no prospects of a job or future.
I move into my new apartment on Friday, which was the whole reason his depression is as severe as it is. I suggested he move into my apartment with me, pay half the rent, and surely it would be cheaper than motels??? Is reply was for me to please stop asking, that he doesn't want to become pathetic, as he would feel like the deadbeat boyfriend watching me go to work, with him having no work to go to. He then told me I was backing the wrong horse and for me to walk away. This was after us only being back less than a week after spend ten glorious weeks touring America together.
I emailed him today suggesting he just spends the weekend with me in my new apartment to help me put my bed together and connect up my electrical equipment again. I think he needs to feel needed as well as loved and wanted....so here's hoping I hear from him and that there is additive outcome.
