Hes been gone 2weeks and says he doesnt know what he wants but that with how things were at home he was unhappy,,,so unhappy that he took off to his nephews house where he has to sleep on the couch, ride a bus to work and hardly see his kids.

Here's your previous post for others to catch up on your situation:
hes unhappy says its my fault and leaves
Have you read Five Love Languages, by Gary Chapman?
If you do love him, show him. Show him the way that means something to him. Sometimes we think we're showing our love, but it doesn't mean anything to the other person. The first step in showing love, is finding out what's important to him, what he needs to feel loved. Then do that. Each person needs something else to feel loved and cared for. It's important to know what and respect that.

You make a good point Dr. Shoshanna.
Hi hms0983, The book Five Love Languages, by Gary Chapman will help with your question.
My suggestion would be to ask him. If he can't explain, or perhaps doesn't know what he needs, then try different things and see what he responds to. Someone else recommended the Five Love Languages - here's a link which explains more

I suggest that if you can't ask him or he can't clearly explain his needs, you try each of the Languages and gauge his responses.
