My ex is depressed and he has a low self esteem. He is giving me mixed signals.. he opens up to me, watches my stories but keeps distance. Why?

Its weird that you can't understand that. Low self esteem mixed signals, doesn't that explain it?

What does it mean.. I just don' t understand he wants to be with me or not he said he cares about me , still attracted to me.. but he " can' t have a normal life" so he is not trying
