Dishonest from the start?

Hi all.....I dont think my husband of 4 years is going through a mid-life crisis...but there is something that is up with him. He has a really good job but he complains that he isn't happy and he doesn't know what he wants to do, then he comes up with these outrageous fantasies of becoming a singer when he doesn't sing and the latest was to go Hollywood and start an acting career when he never did any kind of acting. I really don't know what is going on with him but he gets reaally depressed and I can't seem to help him with these dreams that he is having....It feels to me that all the while he was trying to be someone he wasn't and now its all these things with the entertainment industry...I have no problem with the industry but he has these dreams of becoming a star or something when he never even tried a class in acting or singing...It seems that the marriage is very rocky because I think things are going alright and bam he hits me with these dreams and does all sorts of research to go and give up everything. He says he loves me and can't do anything without my support and needs me to be with him...We live in Europe and Hollywood is in USA...I feel that I dont think I can support him and I feel like I don't know who this person is anymore....He says he will drop it and not bother me with it again but I know in a couple months it will be the same thing or something bogus like that...It is hard to go on with the marriage with this hanging over my head it is constantly bothering me because it keeps happening with something out of the blue that I don't think I could deal with. I feel like I am wasting time with this person because we have lots of little problems and these fantasies makes everything much worse.....I need help before I go insane.
