Talking about his feelings make him feel worse?

Question

My fwb who is also my best guy friend, isn't in a great place at the moment and he's type that suppresses his feelings and doesn't talk to anyone about anything personal so when he does open up and let me in (once a year if I'm lucky), it always makes him feel worse and I'm not sure what to do about that?

Answer

Just let him know that you are there for him. It's not your burden to carry. Give him his space and when he comes around then talk. But whatever he's going through it doesn't help to keep things bottled up. It eventually causes sickness and disease. Nothing is ever that deep that you can't talk about it. All about perspective and unless he gets over his fears  and trust issues there's really nothing you can do except be there for him. Pressing him about it is only going to make him push you away. Watch a movie or something.
