[ Friends ] Open Question : How can I support my boyfriend without being annoying?
My boyfriend`s older brother just left to go to Iraq today. They are extremely close and always have been and now he is going to be gone for a whole year and may not have the best connection to keep in touch all the time. I can tell he is very upset about this and I do not know exactly what to do to help him out. I don`t want to be annoying and baby him but I want to be there for him. I told him I would give him space and that I`m here whenever you need me. Just feel kinda lost in this situation, I am very upset too so I can`t imagine how he is. Please give me some advice on how to handle this one. How to be supportive but not overbearing (if that makes sense).
Thank you so much.
