How To Be Supportive Despite Fear

Hi everyone!

So, I love my boyfriend and we have a very supportive and healthy relationship. But recently he told me that he may be traveling to historically dangerous part of the world and although I’m trying to be supportive of him getting in touch with his roots, I’m terrified that something going to happen to him, especially because his background makes it more likely. (Sorry for being kind of vague, just don’t want to get political or anything!)

Any suggestions for being supportive even when you’re afraid? Any advice would be appreciated, I don’t know what to do but I want to support him despite the valid anxieties. Thank you!
