I'm with you on that one. I get the feeling that Jake was good for Moz. He seems to have helped him become more comfortable with intimacy and sensuality and his own body. But it also seems clear that Moz outgrew him and no longer needed him. Haven't we all met someone like that in our lives?
But didn't Moz say that he was in a relationship with someone and they had "stopped loving me". I always assumed Jake left Moz. Hence Moz having a near suicidal nervous breakdown during the Bowie Outside tour. Moz escaped to Japan for some concerts afterwards I think.

I thought this too (minus the suicide bit) but he describes it differently in Autobio - basically saying he knew it was ending and had already made plans to "pack up my NW1 life" and move to a new flat in Dublin. It's strange, that relationship always sounded dysfunctional, it didn't last very long and Jake is now married (?) to a woman who is a Moz super-fan - just odd. I wondered if Moz began to think he was being used (cf. 'Best Friend on the Payroll'), which I guess must be a common thing for celebrities. You must get to the point where everyone around you is on the payroll.

What...? That actually quite sad 😞
 
I'm not sure, when you look at 'Jake' songs like Best Friend on the Payroll, I think you could already see problems brewing - Moz was forecasting doom early on ("I turn the music down, and I don't know why - this is my house") The Operation ("Everyone I know is sick to the back teeth of you"), etc. I can't imagine a romantic Moz album.

ROTT is the closest Morrissey ever came to a romantic album, with song titles such as "Dear God, please help me", "To me you're a work of art", "At last I am born", "You have killed me".

Best friend on the payroll was almost certainly written with the later and less glorious moments of their relationship in mind. I always interpreted "I'd love tp" (B-side to The more yur ognore me...) as a love song, and it more likely coincides with the better days of their relationship.
