Does he like me?

...See more I have a crush on a good friend of mine. We talk regularly, almost every day. He has helped me through hard times in my life when I was struggling, he would be really comforting and give great advice. Now I'm trying to see if he likes me too. A few days ago, I had sent him a picture of myself and he said "cuteee!" And then he did the heart eyes emoji. He also said that I looked like a real woman, which I don't know what that means XD Once when I told him I was there to support him, he said that I made his day. He has told me that I'm a really nice person several times. When our text conversations come to a stop, and there's not much else to say, he still finds something else to ask me about and keep the conversation going. He always makes sure I know that he's there if he needs me. If I'm sad, he offers to listen and help out however he cane. He compliments me on my art, and he said that it was some of the best art he's ever seen (which my art isn't even that good). But am I exaggerating things? Does he like me?

...See more My depression and anxiety have gotten so much worse in this year. I am constantly moving because of my parents' job and I keep getting ripped away from my best friends. It's so hard and horrible to make new friends and settle down every year. I have social anxiety disorder and making new friends for me is like facing a hurricane. I thought that I had a good friend, but it turns out she doesn't even want to talk to me. I feel so hopeless. Everyone is so much better than me at everything. No one truly cares about me and no one ever will. I'm just not good enough. I just don't see a point in me being alive.

...See more So I have this friend online. I've known him for almost 6 months now, and he's really nice. He's helped me through a really tough place I was in. I consider him a really good friend. I want to be able to call or FaceTime him, because I've never gotten to see his face or hear his voice. Thing is, I don't know how to ask him without sounding creepy. And I'm afraid he'll say no. How do I ask a question like that in a way that doesn't sound weird?

...See more A friend that I consider very close to me has severe depression. He is pretty much constantly suicidal. His parents don't care that he feels this way and claims he'll get over it. I've tried to tell him that he can go to a therapist by himself since he's almost 18, but he refuses. I've asked him what I can do to help, but he says there is nothing for me to do. Then, the other day, a popular singer committed suicide. A friend that knew him released a statement that said "I could help him sometimes, but I was just delaying the inevitable." That really struck me to my core. What if I'm just delaying the inevitable? How am I supposed to stop him? If he dies, then what am I going to do? I have depressive episodes myself and I'm not sure I could take it. Any advice would be appreciated. I just want him to live. Thank you.
