Hey all looking for help here. I have a new friend that I met through family. He invited me out and we had a great time. We texted and talked on the phone a good deal after and we have lots in common. Invited him for the holiday and he seemed excited to come but then a few days before he stopped replying and didn't show up. His friend says he gets depressed around the holidays due to losing all his family an that he sometimes withdraws when he gets too close to people. His friend hasn't been able to talk to him either and hasn't seen him at work around the time he stopped messaging me. I have since tried reaching out but no response. Not sure what to do from here. Any advice would be helpful!
There is nothing more you can do. You can't force him to respond to you if he doesn't want to.
Just leave it for now and if he is depressed he may get in touch again when he feels better.
