<human>: I live in Canada and my friend lives in my home country of Denmark. He called me the other day to tell me him and his wife are splitting up (after 1 year), they have been together for more than 10 years before getting married.

He is clearly confused and upset, there doesn't seem to be any cheating or abuse involved just the classic "I don't think this is working anymore" from her. She seems clear and resolved about this decision while he is heartbroken and destroyed. No kids involved (just a dog).

I want to help him the best I can, but being a 9-hour flight away I can't exactly go to his house with beers or invite him over for dinner.

Any suggestions of how I can be there for him. (I'm already texting/calling whenever he needs it, and check in daily).

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: Friend is splitting with his wife, I live on the other side of the world, how can I be there for him during this difficult time?
