I started a relationship 6 years ago. There were many ups and downs (mainly downs). We were off and on. It couldn't continue and I ended it. Due to the fact he is all alone (maybe not because he doesn't tell me much),he says he doesn't do anything or see anybody, I kept in touch as a friend. I have had to remind him that I am just there as a friend. Wouldn't see him very often but it has become less often. He was quite I'll at one point but seemed much better of late.
He has a heart problem, COPD, doesn't exercise, doesn't eat well and drinks too much.
The last time I saw him he'd invited me for dinner but when I got there he hadn't prepared anything. He did do a bacon and egg bap.
I haven't heard off him since. I have texted if he is OK and if he needed to go shopping. I was taking him shopping since he lost his licence for drink driving.
He is 65.
To be honest I find him difficult and annoying (why the relationship didn't work).
Although I am happy not too see him I find it difficult to abandon someone who doesn't appear to have anyone else.
He may have found someone else. He may just not want to be in n contact with me any more or my worry is he got n such a bad way and needs help. How on earth do I approach this?
