well this is my problem... there's a guy and I have liked him for about a year now. At first we weren't that close but this year we have gotten a lot closer.

A while ago I was talking to him on msn and when I asked him how he was he said he was depressed. He started to tell me about a lot of very dark stuff in his life. He also told me that he asked out this girl that he really loves but she turned him down and now she won't talk to him.

He flirts with me a lot but my question is should I tell him how I feel or just be there for him as a friend?

okay here's a bit of an update...

he called me yesterday and he was pretty upset. he was crying and he just kept saying "i can't do it anymore"

i got really worried so i went around to his house, his parents were out and he was just sitting in his room crying. i got him to calm down and he started to tell me what happened:

his dad got really drunk and started shouting and screaming at him. he tried to go upstairs but he was blocking the way. his dad whacked him across the face. after that he couldn't tell me much more.

what worries me the most is that he was having a shower to try and calm down and i went into his cloakroom to hang up my jacket and i found a rope hanging from the roof... it was tied like a hangmans noose

i dont know what to do im really worried about him. i know going out with him isn't an option anymore-he wouldn't be able to cope but how should i best support him? i think i should tell his mam-she needs to know-but how am i ment to bring it up? i haven't really talked to her before and he usually is there when i do.

anyway thanks for reading
