I was in love with a nuke.

Ok, like the story says; I was in love (or should I say "in lust") with a nuke.  We met at a concert one day several months ago, and well, we had a brief, but intense romance full of wild nights, lots of Cheech and Chong movies, and lots musical creativity.  A surface nuke and an airdale IT;  Pretty, isn't it?

Well, that's not really why I'm posting this, but is the base of why I'm venting in here. I still care about him (the same way I would care for any other shipmate, despite we're not in the same command), and while I was with him, I discovered he has all sorts of mental dissorders (he takes like four different medications), and I think he was also trying stuff that's not really legal for us (unformed services members), like spice and things like that.  I even saw a letter that says "you're in risk of losing your security clearance due to possible mental illness", "you're in the risk of losing your NEC and getting reclassified", and tons of DoN letters with similar messages.

I'm worried about what could happen to him.  I want to help him, but I don't want to sound like I'm a snitcher either.

What can I do?

Execute a Williamson turn (good look up for SW quals) and make Flank bell away from the wreckage. He needs professional help, but the longer you stay in close proximity the greater likelihood your career will also take damage!

Sounds like trouble. Run!

Good advice here from HD and BZ.

You should be concerned for your proximity to the IMPLOSION ... and you being a 'surface airdale' let me explain it in my SS (submarine service) humor ...

Run deep, run fast, run like your life / career depended on it ... because it does.

Well, (in response to McGyver) in the aviation world that would be translated to "run like the wind", and even if I don't see him as often as we were together, I still see him around base every now and then, and he looks rather sad.  I don't talk to him that much anymore (he may think I want him back, which is not the case), but still...I guess I should stop all my ties with him.

Anyways, thanks for reading my post and for the pointers.
