Haven't seen my boyfriend in 3 weeks, he says he is depressed?

[Anonymous]

He cancelled our week dates 3 times because he says he has family problems work problems, his knee hurts, his daughter has problems and now spends more time with him
Sometimes we dont speak for 2 or 3 days
Not even "good morning or good night"
He says he doesn't want to burden me with his problems, doesn't want to bore me with everything going on in his life now
Said he will explain all these bad stuff when we see each other because its no a phone call conversation
Said we will meet soon, doesn't know when yet

He is saving you emotional stress it's a good thing

I dont understand sorryy
How

[OneNineZero]

He is dealing with his problem himself if you involves you , you will be stressed too and he is keeping you safe from that

[Asker]

Oh... so it means he cares about me
Or means he doesn't care even to talk to me or wish me good morning

[OneNineZero]

He is in a really bad place, he might think if he talks to you and you ask he might share his problem and affect you, I think he did said he will tell you everything when things are okish so that should be okish
And everyone need some time to handle their own darkness and some people prefer to do it alone

But he blatanlty ignores me
How is this helping?
He told me last week he has been drinking wodka nearly everyday after work
I met him on Wednesday
All cute and loving
But when i leave again he ignores me
I send him pics of place I've been, ask about his plans or ask how is he doing
He doesn't answer me
I said good night last night
He answered "sweet drramm, sleep well"
But totally ignored the pics i sent him and my question
