Farm, I don't consider myself an "expert" from whom you're looking for advice, but from your blip, sems to me he's looking to talk to ( or should I say he's looking for someone that can "listen to") someone so he can verbalize what he's going through. He may be attempting to sort out by vocalizing, and you're the sounding board or perhaps the safe harbor. Forget about the D for now. He's going through or attempting to go through some changes and needs to express to someone his thoughts. For whatever reason, he feels safe in "talking it out" with you. Don't attempt to make anything more of it. Just help him along as best you can when he contacts and go on with your own life.
