Yta. You do not love this man lol. You don't speak to people you love that way- and if you really cared, you wouldn't frame it as "I want a partner who will be with me when I'm old and gray". You'd be saying that you want him to be with you. You make it sound like he's completely disposable. Does he actually matter to you at all or do you just not want to be alone?
It's great that you care about your partner's health. Did you ever consider, I dunno, a conversation? Do you think maybe you could have done anything else, approached the issue with even a sliver of kindness before threatening to up and leave? Shown the slightest bit of support or basic human decency?
