We were supposed to spend the day together that weekend but he had to cancel to work all weekend on a proposal to try and save his job. I'm very concerned about him through all of this and I have been supportive by staying out of his way, but yet texting or calling to tell him that i'm thinking about him and offering to help out wherever I can.My fear is that due to this additional stress he will start to back away from the relationship because he can't handle everything that is being thrown his way. Am I just being paranoid? Or would have have done or said something by now? I really am trying to give him his space, but yet still let him know that I care about him. Should I be doing anything else?
