Seriously though, support him the best you can, build his confidence, and hopefully he climbs out of the co dependent hole he is in.

I had some thoughts on this but when I read the co-dependent part, my thinking shifted. What I was thinking (likely erroneously) was that he cared for another human being. Easy to walk away from someone, harder to want to help.
Yeah, if possible he needs to talk to someone that is a professional, if possible. IDK a thing about the relationship, but there is tiny chance she will see something knowing he is seeking help to turn around and help her.
A tiny chance. I too believe people are like the spots on a leopard quote. Sometimes they can be rearranged, but not often. And I have a similar situation pretty close to home.
