Thoughts on my (23F) relationship with an Indian guy (27M)?

Relationships

I'm from the Philippines.

It all started 6 months ago, we met online through common interests.

We started talking, and we came to love each other, but we're long-distance. BUT he's been saying we can't be together due to his circumstances. His parents have been arguing with him about marriage, but he says he'll die alone and disappear off to another country. Meanwhile, he's still talking to me everyday, showing concern, sending me reels, and everything.

He works almost 12 hours a day, then goes to the gym after. He has been depressed, and so have I. He texts me, but doesn't call. I am having difficulties with university, and he keeps telling me to go back. I told him I needed a break. I say I'm not having expectations, but whenever he says he doesn't believe in anything anymore and keeps on hinting that he's going to die alone- it weighs heavily on me. Especially when he said he almost offed himself and didn't because of me, but that confuses me.

He keeps me around, but I fear I won't be able to ever be with him the way I want to.

I'm always anxious that he'll disappear.

The truth is, I love him, and I want to be with him... but it looks like he won't allow it. I even dreamed of being married and having kids with him.

Should I just end this?
