How to support DS?

I’ve posted about DS and his gf before. Now me and exh are becoming increasingly worried about his behaviour,

im not sure what, if anything we can do as at 21 he’s an adult.

since they met in March they have spent about 2 nights apart.
he was due to join the forces (which he was obsessed with doing) then didn’t go
he doesn’t see his friends anymore
he doesn’t want a permanent job as wants to travel with her
he gets up early in the morning takes her home, she goes to work then he picks her up every day and they sit in his bedroom
he turned down a family holiday at Xmas (his brother & step brother are both coming)
he doesn’t turn up to family events or meals
he won’t help anyone with lifts or anything because he’s picking her up or dropping her off

i think he’s got some ND issues as he becomes obsessed with things then it just ends and he’s onto the next (gaming, army, now gf)

im worried and don’t know what to do without pushing him (them) further away

What’s he doing while she’s at work? Who would be funding their imaginary travels?
