[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hoping to get advice in how to maintain good relationship, which we have, on their  terms of course, which involves as little communication as possible outside of texts, but-it is painful to watch. I realize they are an adult and will make their own decisions regardless of how  ill advised they are, and constantly leaving friendships that, at least,  provided community. I don't give advice at all any more, this person is pushing 40,  but I do realize they are, despite  very intelligent on paper,  is very insecure and immature, too, which won't end really.  About to leave yet another job which was going well and a group of friends.  [/quote]

Are they happy with their life? Maybe they don't need friends or long term jobs to feel content.

Its only a problem if they're always complaining about their situation and placing blame on the employers and the friends. That indicates they have poor insight and should seek counseling. [/quote]

They have arranged it so that they don’t have to take direction from anyone in a job, operates own business but yet probably got married as an income and insurance back up. Relationships are fairly transactional, and have been that way since childhood.  [/quote]

I thought you said they were about to leave another job? Or do they run their own business?

Your op asked how to manage YOUR relationship with him. What are you have a hard time with?

If they're content, don't worry about jobs and friends. [/quote]
