youre gona have to take it really slow, suggest a trip to a public place in case its intimacy hes afraid of!.

i know you dont want to hear this but maybe he genuinely doesnt want to meet you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

tell him to relax, calm down, ask him to book an appointment a GP to see what there advice is, tell him you will go and see him at his house, and tell him not to be nervous you adore the bloke and think his the best thing thats come into his life, that will raise his spirits a little bit, things like thatWww@Answer-Health@Com

Force yourself upon him!. Either force it or lose him because hes to afraid to meet up with you!. You may have to force it a little to get him more comfertable with your company!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Have you ever seen him, he might be ashamed of his looks or have issues with the way he looks and fear rejection!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

have you tried having a night in with him!? that might just give him the confidence he needs because it sounds like a confidence problemWww@Answer-Health@Com

i think you should surprise him, hes just too shy =)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Try to think of going somewhere to meet that is not to much like a date so there isn't as much pressure!. Ask him if he would like to go ice-skating or something like that!. I am sure there must be something that he is interested in that will not seem like a date and relieve the pressure a little!. I hope you do manage to get together!. There are so many people that are together that are not suited to each other it is a shame when two people who seem to be well matched are not together!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wow, I was that way when I met my husband !. When we were dating, i would get panic attachs so bad and not be able to function!. But i loved him and wanted the relationship but was sending mixed messages!. We do want the relationship but hurts from our past have been so painful its a way of us not trusting we wont get hurt again!. I went on meds for depression an anxiety lexapro a great drug!. I am married now and its a miracle!. My husband was like you so patient he knew i was a great person and liked him but had problems!. You are a plus in this persons life and they will remember you for that patience!. Its a hard place to be but with meds and counceling i came thru!. Blessings to you and you friend!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

why don't you write to him!. and tell how you really feel!. then he can keep on reading!. over and over again!. that way he wont have panic attacks!. the maybe he will open up to you!. good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Maybe Im an old cynic but I had to reply & warn you there may be some other reason this guy doesnt want to meet!.!.!.!.!.!.its easy to believe what you want to but I think you should consider is he being honest !?!?!?!?
I dont want to worry you & if he is genuine I wish you luck as I suffer from depression but I suggest you check him out for your own sake!.!.!.good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
