Nah, not really. He says he wants to go back to college again rather than work; the fact that he dropped out in the first place was the reason his dad cut him off and passed him over to me, like "He's your problem now, handle it." - while also telling my fiance behind my back that "Now you're broke and penniless, she'll break up with you, just you wait."
The problem is, I don't trust he will graduate this time, either. The last time he gave up because he wanted to be a unique snowflake and expected everyone to be in awe of his talent - which is indisputable, but still raw (he doesn't think hard work is worth "wasting time" with.)
Anyway, yes, he did try to help, but the problem is he knew full well his suggestions were BS. He wanted me to watch Lion King so he could see me cry harder (it's not the first time he brings it up even though he KNOWS that scene with Simba's dad in the beginning is a very VERY strong trigger for me). That doesn't seem helpful to me. At all.
