Crush said he doesn't wanna tell me what's wrong because he doesn't want to drag me into it?

I asked my crush what's wrong today because he seemed sad and he said he appreciates me caring but he doesn't want to drag me into it. I told him that he can vent to me and we can find a solution to his issue. He said he doesn't want to tell me because he cares so much about me.. what could it be?

Hmm from what you described, it sounds like your crush must be going through something pretty personal or serious if he doesn't want to share the details with you. Here are a few possibilities:

- Family issues - could be problems at home that he feels are private matters and doesn't want to worry you with

- Legal/money trouble - like if he's dealing with the police or financial stress, he may want to spare you those details

- Mental health struggles - things like depression or anxiety are tough to open up about, especially to someone you care about

- Relationship drama - could be stuff with an ex or another girl that would be messy to drag you into

- Health problems - maybe something private he's concerned about and doesn't feel comfortable venting yet

My guess is he really cares about you and your feelings, which is why he doesn't want to burden you. At the same time, reassure him you're here for support no matter what. Give him space, but let him know the offer stands whenever he's ready to share. With time and care, hopefully he'll open up♥️

Who knows, but you need to respect his situation.
