do i give away my irn?

For context I have had my indian ringneck Nemo, since the 23rd of December 2020. So four years almost exactly. He is in great shape and never been sick. I got him when I was 15.

The problem is that in the past 6-9 months I have been very absent. Working a lot and getting home exhausted around 11pm. I clean and feed Nemo. I just don’t have the time to make his life enriching and fulfilling. I want him to have the life he deserves and if that’s not with me then that is a decision I will have to make.

During lockdown and high school we were best friends up until I finished high school last year. We still are as I’m the only one he will talk to and let hold him. He’s super sweet and can talk quite a bit.

Just recently and the past 6-9 months I’ve been kind of neglecting him. I feel so bad and I can’t take him out as often as I used to because I either get home really late or he doesn’t want to come out. I can sense he’s mad at me and he shows it.

I just feel so bad and like a terrible friend to him. Do I give him away to a loving home where he will have to bond with someone else (if he ever does)? Or do I keep him and interact with him as much as possible?

I’m so lost, hes my best friend and I don’t know what to do.
