I kind of did that a few weeks ago. Sent an e-mail telling him that if leaving was going to make him happy that was what he needed to do and that I would obviously, have to live with his decision. Actually, asked him last night during R talk why he doesn't leave if he is so attached to ow... I truly believe he is afraid to move and make the "wrong" decision. Unfortunately, every day living a lie is a "wrong" decision in and of itself..
