Depression?
So u get to know this person online who says all the right things and seems like a true angel then when u meet in person u find him cold and incapable of any human empathy and when u wonder why he says he's obviously depressed and didnot lie to u , it was easy to express feelings from a distance but in real life he was afraid of rejection .
And he mentions he loves u deeply and will seek therapy to make u happy.
I'm very confused and would appreciate someone's thoughts on:
Was he conscious all along of what he was saying from a distance and pretending to be something that he's not?
Can a depressed person be in love?
And please explain his behavior in real life,
the cold, disconnected person.
Thank you.

He really seems to be depressed and his behaviour in person proves that to some extent. Often such people speak with their heart when chatting online, writing letters, etc. but are losers when it comes to socializing with people in real life. He seems to be such kind of person from what you said about him. And if that's the case, then better stay away from him, it's better not to get involved with such a complicated person.

yes a depressed person can be in love. sometimes that's what helps and motivates them to get better.
Often depressed people online with seem much happier, because they are online and not actually in person with the person that they are taking to and tend to forget about there problems.
He was not pretending, i don't think he was. i just think that he was so caught up on you that while he was talking to you he may have forgotten all his problems for a while.
if he said that he will get better for you, i think he does love you. because if he didn't he wouldn't have said that he'd try to get better for YOU.
but also for him.
i hope i helped a bit.

You should show her support and try to compensate that negative feeling she has from that sorry excuse for s mother.
Have you considered your custody options ?
