Guys...help.... what do I do now? What do I make of this ?? (I;m sorry to be so helpless all the time !) He texted back saying..
"Hiya. Gone to *hometown*, was feeling bit low. Will be watching rugby later I expect though. You ok?"
so...um...what on earth??? I didnt ask him in my text anything, I didnt say are you ok, I dont know why hes asking me, I dont know what to reply, other than I;m really sorry to hear that, do you want to talk sometime later? Or not that??
Feel horrible him admitting to me he feels low...thats the first time he has said that (other than saying it in context of feeling bad for hurting me, back before christmas).
Feel wierd about this. And frustrated with him !!! Why did he do this to us? I would have been there for him, no matter what. Now we're both "low" !!!

What to make of it? Hmmmmm, well he has gone back to *hometown*, probably to recharge, since he was feeling a little bit low. He will probably watch the rugby there. And he wonders how you are doing.
He might be asking you how you are because he'd like to know. Or because it is the polite thing to do. Answering is a little tricky, I think. I would go with telling him that you are doing ok, and will be going to a bike ride tomorrow, or you are practicing the guitar, something like that. Make it something that he would have done with you. I think that might get him to think that you would be there to support him, without you even coming close to saying it. You don't want to tell him you are low, it would just feed his guilt.
