This is definitely the case. I mean for a while there, i was really hoping that I just needed to get to know this girl of his to see why he was with her. But it's hard to get to know someone who never shows up to anything and has never put an ounce of effort into getting to know our family. It's been 5 years of her just disregarding us and trying harder to push us out of his life.

From what I hear about her, she has a lot of the same issues as my brother (plus a lot more). So in that regard they are just enabling each other.

. By her staying with him and telling him constantly that she can't live without him he is drawing confidence and feeling loved and needed from it. Whereas unlike her, he is absolutely doing his very best to make sure she could never possibly want for anything, or be upset about everything.

So their relationship is toxic for both of them. She has trapped herself in a little bubble and she is never going to learn independence or the joys of first becoming an adult. My brother will never realise that it's not his job to rescue or take care of people all the time. That he can get his worthiness from inside himself instead.

I wish there was anything that I could say or do to subtly spark some realisation inside of him...
