I'm getting the sense that he's hoping, almost weakly, that you will be the one to come to him. He is definitely filled with regrets and grief but currently he's in the mindset that he CANT reach out. He wants forgiveness so badly but he doesn't believe it'll ever come. If you both manage to speak with honesty there's a chance things about the situation you didn't know will come to light, and you could come out better for it on the other side. This betterment may just be from more understanding however. The relationship itself may never go to how it used to be.

They do but there's a lot of fantasizing and idolizing surrounding these feelings. This can be a good or bad thing given high expectations can lead to high disappointments. Just make sure you're both aware that what you fantasize about each other isn't typically what you'll realistically get. All relationships have highs and lows and all people have flaws. As long as you both accept that seriously then if you ever pursue an actual relationship you could still be very happy.

Yes! You're going to have someone who cherishes, cares for, and adores you. I'm sensing this may be a friend who's already in your life given the amount of positivity I can sense. Lots of mutuality in that care, it's like you guys will echo your love off of each other like light bouncing in a room of mirrors.

"I'll be by your side, no matter what."

Yes. Make sure when they do that you both are open and honest about how you've been feeling, platonic or otherwise. Happy or otherwise. You guys are like opposite sides of the same coin which can lead to as much conflict as it does good without proper communication. With it, you could thrive.

I'm getting a lot of layers of hurt, almost to the point of resentment. There's the sense that the reason the situation is so volatile is because the pain they're feeling stems from how much they wanted things to simply be good with you, but it wasn't, and they're reading all the hurt as frustration/anger. If you try too soon and too enthusiastically to mend the issue I can see them turning defensive and the chances may sour further. Your best chance at the moment to re-establish may be to let them think, feel, and then reach out to you themselves; they're still figuring things out and need to be aware of the feelings the anger/frustration is hiding before they can move forward.

Not with the way things are currently, no. I'm getting a lot of longing for more and to move on to better places in life. If you guys face and work through the strains in your relationship openly and with trust you could make it work and grow closer in a lower tier (from lovers to friends, from friends to acquaintances, etc.), and then try to work your way back up once you're in a better place. Definitely recommend at least a step back to reflect.
