[quote=Anonymous] The fact that his parents are gone might mean that he's very lonely and thus the drinking. Since he is long distance, maybe you could start by establishing more frequent contact with him. Maybe start calling him weekly or biweekly just to check in; then maybe he will feel more comfortable staying in touch with you. Once you have a more comfortable relationship going, then you could find out if there are ways to provide job or relationship guidance or even a little financial help or small furnishings for his apartment, etc. (without him becoming a financial burden and yes this is tricky). You are right to care. Some people feel alone and just need someone to care and motivate them a little.[/quote]
