Guys i really need your help. Here is what's going on. My boyfriend just came back from visiting his family in cuba. he is extremely depressed and now he wants to go live over there. my biyfriend and i , dont live together we lie seperate. everytime i call he is sad and barely wants to talk, sometimes he hurts my feelings in the way. I need help. how can i help him. I think that his idea of goin back to cuab is transitory, its only because he is depressed but maybe am wrong. can anyone please help me to help him.if he leaves he cant come come back. no he doesnt have anybody in cuba. we already talk about it nd he told me he didnt it. i do think am pushing him but is just because i dont like seeing him sad i want to get all that sadness away from him. i have tried getting him happy but its like he wants to be drepressed... i've told him dat he needs to be strong and going back to cuba is really no help for his family. also his mom called me nd she wants me to help her.

Talk with him about what is on his mind and let him do most of the talking.

Dear Something happened while he was there. If he will not talk to you and is being mean to you, you probably should just be there when he needs you. Just don't push him to hard. You are right he probably will get over it in time. Good luck and god bless he insist on going back be supportive and understanding. It is all you can do. Good luck and God bless you and him. Sugar

Hello, I can't help but wonder if there is more to this story. Like WHY is he so depressed? Is his family not doing well, do they need his help, or does he just miss them? In any case, I have to ask you - Why not let him go and figure out if being home is where he really wants to be? He can always come back. Sometimes when you don't take the steps to quell your wondering.... he may be like this for a while.On another note.... he may just need to be left alone to figure this out for himself. Perhaps he isnt looking for your help. Didnt want to be harsh.... but real.Hope this helps!
