cupidus agony auntYou don't have to do anything.

If he is taking abuse from the ex, that has little if nothing to do with you. If he gives her money, again, zero to do with you.

She's gone blind, which is more terrifying than being blind from birth. He is helping her, I would too.

You've been with him for one month. That is a very short time.

You say you can offer love and trust, but you don't trust him around her or her around him? If it's love you want than you will have to love the fact that he is helping his ex. I do think that's admirable.

Concentrate on your RS with him, not his ex. Whatever challenges he has with his ex our not yours leave those out of the conversation and out or the arena.
