Search Results: guys afraid to show feelings

Me & this guy hit it off as soon as we met at work Became very strong friends Ended up sleeping together multiple times He found a job in his field an hour away.
We still keep in touch Texting every day, all day & night sometimes
I realized my feelings were stronger & my gut is telling me he feels the same & he’s just scared He told me straight out he was afraid I would hurt him At his new place He video chats & shows me around Still texting everyday
One day we’re talking & Out of the blue he says “Can’t talk long. I have a date tonight” I give him kudos & say “okay I’ll let you go” but he says “it’s okay she’s not here yet We can still talk”
the very next day he does it again “Got another date tonight. She’s on her way over”
I’m trying to be happy/supportive but it kinda hurt. The next morning he ask if I was okay & said I sounded upset
A couple days later, we planned to meet up for his bday The morning of he said I’m awake :) & I said see ya soon. half an hour later he says “hey some people want to take me out for a birthday thing. Let’s meet up later”
I say “okay. Fine. Just let me know”
He says “Don’t be mad”
he didn’t text me later letting me know anything. So I just left it alone
the next week he posts a snap story saying how his favorite show can’t even distract him
I ask what the matter. He says long story tell you later.
The next day he tells me
“You know those dates I’ve been having. Well, she’s in the hospital & I have no way to communicate w/ her. I’ve been trying not to cry for the past 2 days. I’m worried I never felt like this about a girl
But then when I Told him to go see her. He says she told him she doesn’t want him to see her like that.
How would she tell him this if he had no way to communicate with her
Now keep in mind He moved to this new place on the 28th, been on 2 dates (w 2 different girls he said), then this girl (no name was mentioned), & now she’s in the hospital. And this all happened by the 10th.

Be honest, what do you think?
