I want to offer him help or like a place to stay if he ever needs it but I don’t know how to approach the topic or if I should. We never rly talk about feelings or anything and every time I’ve tried to bring something like that up he changes the conversation or doesn’t get involved.

Try maybe just sending a text. Start the text by saying he doesn’t have to respond or commit to anything but you just want to let him know you’re there for him

Plus since you guys aren’t used to talking feelings, writing it all out could give you a chance to review what you want to say
