Dear melissax, you should know that a lot of people put on masks when exposed to the public. I myself am one of them. I'm this happy person with a bright, face, witty remarks, charm and smiles. But as you can see I've been on this forum and usually post about depression and stress. You can continue your friendship with him as the coolest person ever, or be the love of his life. Although be prepared to have either of two things to happen. You'll be the love of his life and the source of is joy, or, you'll get dragged down with him and find him to be a very different person. To be safe, you two should make a pact to stay the bestest of friends no matter what. Swear on it and do a little something special to remind each other. I'm sure you'll make the right decision. Goodluck Mel.

Well he probably has alot of problems in his life that you are not aware of because you guys have drifted apart. He confessed the way he feels about you and you have to make sure to be sensitive to his feelings because he is going through difficult times. I think you should first try to help him with things in his life and let him talk to you about them, because it seems like he had no one he can trust to talk to. Just don't make yourself "like" him more than a friend unless you are comfortable with it,and you truly feel love for him in that way. You guys should also promise to stay best friends whatever happens.
