It's like you took away the literal opposite meaning of what OP wrote. The entire post is him sharing his personal crisis and total lack of purpose and motivation. He is literally saying he does not know what he needs to find his way out of that.

But he decided he needed to not be in a relationship (or in that specific relationship) at this time. How does that make him a shitty person?

Surely you're not suggesting he should stick with her so she can partake in the financial gains.
