Sounds like he's got compelling reasons to quit right now, with the loss of his job, the CDing drain on the bank account, having to relocate, and missing his male workout body.

But, he will likely return to it at some point in the future when his life and finances are stable again, after which he'll maybe prioritize finding a GG life parter (when he might quit again), but when that relationship settles, he'll likely start up again. There is a reason why so many people get into the CDing more seriously when they approach middle age. It's a time of life that is generally more stable, with more time to CD - maybe the kids are older - more secure finances, the primary relationship is established, etc.

People think that CDers always quit due to shame but this blogger's experiences shows this isn't true. He simply has different priorities than the CDing right now, which makes sense to me. But, the CDing can indeed be a strong pull, so as mentioned, he might get back to it. Or, maybe not. We've had tens of thousands of members who participated here in the past but who no longer do.
