My boyfriend.. I don't know what I can say!

    My boyfriend who I will call Bob is having some trouble. He loves me very much and I love him very much and this is a relationship I want to stick with not a joke or anything I am serious about him. Ok now that that is clear to the actual problem.

    My boyfriend bob has been crying almost non-stop for the last 3 days. He keeps getting upset that if he ever changed and broke up with me how hurt I would be. I don't know what to say to that and I don't know how to get him to stop crying. He isnt a little boy or anything he is 17 years old and he has never been like this before (we have been together for 6 months already). I love him but I can't help getting the feeling that unconsciously we both think that we are going to break up or something and just don't want to admit it. Anyone have any advise? I haven't seen him once since he started crying, but last i saw him we were happy together, we both cried talking about how much we want to stay together and don't want to break up. We are not fighting or anything like that but we can't help but get scared, we are in high school and its hard with parental influence and friends and stuff. Bob has been sick with a tummy ache for awhile and now him being depressed so much is making him loose even more appetite. Can anyone help me? What can I say to encourage him or help him get out of his depression? What is wrong with him? Any guys go through something like this before?

    Ooh . I`ve only had this happen once, but you don`t really hear about it often . But the guy I knew didn`t cry THAT much . Honestly, I think he`s just over emotional and thinks about things way too much . I mean, I don`t know the guy, so I can`t really say, but I`m working with the details you`ve given . Just assure him that that will never happen . If he keeps thinking about him ever changing, maybe he`s looking for himself inside ? I don`t know, guys I know do that xD Just let him know that no matter what you guys go through or what people say, or what happens, you`ll love him . Tell him how you`r feeling about him being like this . Let him know that you`re not going anywhere, and that seeing him like this is hurting you [isn`t it ?] . I don`t know . I didn`t handle this situation well when it was happening to me T-T
    All I can do is wish you the best of luck .

    Hate to say it... but this is the way I got when I realised the person I thought I was going to be with forever was gone and things would never be the same. I felt like a huge pussy being a dude and all but for the first time in my life I lost the will to live. I didnt try to commit suicide or anything, I tried to ignore it for her and believe all the things she was telling me... like how we'd be together... and how we'd love eachother forever if we weren't, but things eventually turned out the way I prayed they wouldnt. She never understood why I got so upset but then she never saw how much she was changing. I swore I'd love her forever, even if she was with someone else... but we drifted apart and the last time we actually talked we both agreed we never loved eachother, even though I do with all my heart... it just seems like things are better off this way. Now its almost like the butterfly effect if you've seen that movie... we just pass by eachother like strangers and I hold my tongue because I dont want to hurt her anymore or drag her down.

    Anyways, sorry, enough about me... but it sounds like thats what your boyfriends going through from my experience. Above all be honest with him and give him your love and support, sounds like he needs it more then ever, but whatever u do dont fill him with false hope. Let him know your going to help him through this and that you're going to be there with him when its over, if thats what u really want.

    Yah, I know how he feels. Basically, he either feels you will leave him or he will leave you (well duh), but that is important - the chances are it is you, I would blindly suppose. You need to really find the root of this problem. Clearly he's not going to randomly cry for so long. Something triggered this sudden change - you need to talk to him about it - not just a general fear of separation, but what happenend and what is it? Attention to detail.
