So, he is going home to America tomorrow and we are meeting for lunch at the airport. His father who lives here is recovering from surgery and is doing ok he says. I believe he is telling me the truth about his father. I don't know for sure though. I'm not going to confront him about his drinking and will wish him well and good bye for now. I watched a documentary about alcoholism and realize when he seeks help, he may turn to people he can trust. I feel sad about this whole situation but am happy he wants to meet before he goes home. I as I said expected nothing but hope for the best. I will continue to talk with him as usual and see if he will open up about his drinking. He seems to be open about his drinking to me so I am hoping he will seek help one day and become sober. In the meanwhile, I need to survive myself and take care of myself. I was wondering the reason he was so nice to me but realize he could be as lonely as I am. We all need to be loved and cared for. He may on the surface be holding in his problems and drinking them away with alcohol. I will always remember these past two months as special and not forget about him. I will keep in the back of my mind though he has a problem and may need help one day. I will try to be there for him. At least, when we meet tomorrow, I will not bring up his drinking and just enjoy his company. I will try to comfort him and show him true kindness. That is all I wanted also. I want to be loved and cared for. I will remain strong as long as I can. I also hope I can be of true help one day for him. I will write him and tell him this.
