There isn't much you can do. Chances are any attempt to interfere (this includes doing an intervention) or argue with him will just make him double down and cling to this woman even harder, because he'll be even more isolated than he is now. I'd say do what you have to do (without reason) to maintain some sort of connection with him, at least enough of one where he knows he can depend on you guys if the shit hits the fan.

And try not to be too harsh or judgy to him when it does.

OP

Yeah, I totally agree with that. My parents were saying how even if he wasn't planning on marrying her before he definitely will now out of spite, which I think seems very likely.

It's crazy because he told my dad last night that now he's finally "part of a normal family" which is just so ridiculous it's kind of hilarious. His gf's two older siblings are both married with kids and all five of the nieces/nephews (they're pretty young) are on a bunch of depression/anxiety medication, the gf's mom is on 17 different medications for various things (and multiple times has tried to get my mom to take her (gf's mom's) hydrocodones for no reason), and the gf is on some but we're not sure how many or what for. My brother's also the kind of person who think all problems can be solved with pills, and he and the gf are both pretty much alchoholics. So you've got a family full of drug addicts, and whatever weird dynamic is going on with the gf and her mom...it's just a massively fucked up, dysfunctional situation. But they're a "normal family" in my brother's opinion so...whatever.

At this point he's made it clear that he doesn't want any sort of connection with us, but my mom said she was going to make sure he knows that we're not cutting him out of our lives and that we're here for him whenever he comes to his senses (although maybe not worded exactly that way).
