Mickey wasn't just distant with Ian to protect him from Terry. He was protecting Ian from himself. Mickey grew up think he made everything worse, he's fucked for life. He has no plans for his future or ambitions. He probably doesn't even see himself getting past 25 so why would he have goals??
Ian is the complete opposite. He's in ROTC, tested out of English, has a legal job, and has clear plans for his future. Ian thinks he can become more than just southside trash, and he's determined to prove that.
Mickey doesn't want to bring Ian down with him. If he lets Ian in, he's letting him get caught up in the violence and the crime and the homelessness. To mickey Ian will always be better. Ian doesn't deserve to be dragged down by a 'burden' like mickey.
This is why I think mickey blames himself for Ian getting ill and for ruining his army dreams. Its mickey getting married, that makes Ian 'go crazy'. It was mickey inviting Ian over that makes him have to get married and it was mickey letting Ian in by kissing him that gave him the confidence to invite him over.
Even tho mickey knew he was bad for Ian from the start, he still keeps going back to him. The fact that Ian isn't perfect will always be something that mickey feels is his fault.
