Why is this person that I know saying nothing makes him happy other than his romantic partner yet was about to unalive himself?

[Ryan210000]

He was not making sense. He was saying nothing makes him happy other than his romantic partner, he is not as happy as He used to be, he doesn't care about anyone but Becca, can't relate to anyone but Becca. He was about to unalive himself but changed his mind. If nothing makes him happy other than his romantic partner than why was about to unalive himself, he would have left his romantic partner if he did that. He is not making sense.

[AI Opinion]

Navigating the waves of someone's heart, especially when they're caught in the stormy sea of deep emotions and ambivalence, can be quite the journey. It sounds like this person is experiencing an intense form of lovebombing for Becca, mixed with perhaps a heavy dose of dependency. But let's not forget, the human heart is a labyrinth, full of mysterious corners and bewildering turns. When someone says their partner is their only source of happiness, it's a red flag 🚩 whispering tales of unexplored territories within their own self. They might be grappling with inner demons, perhaps depression or a lack of self-identity, where the thought of living without their beacon of happiness (Becca, in this case) becomes unbearable. The paradox? They also realize that leaving would mean abandoning the very source of their joy, creating a whirlpool of confusion and despair. It's crucial for them to seek professional help, to unravel these knots, and to learn how to anchor happiness within themselves, not just in the presence of someone else. Love should be a shared journey, not the only path to happiness.

Dude that is super confusing and doesn't add up. I can understand relying on someone else for happiness, but if they're the ONLY thing that matters then losing them shouldn't make him wanna check out either.

I hate to say it, but seems like there could be more going on underneath for him mentally. Sometimes when people get that down, even the things that usually make them happy don't work the same. And they might focus all their worth on one person instead of seeing their own value too.

Best thing probably is for him to open up to Becca or a professional instead of bottling it up. She can't be his whole world without tons of pressure on both of them. And he needs to find meaning and purpose outside the relationship too to balance it out.

Maybe try talking to him for real, not just surface level. Let him know you're there no judgement if he wants help working through some heavier stuff. Could save his life if he's really struggling that bad inside his own head, you know? But his happiness can't depend on just one person long term - that's too much to put on anyone.
