Anyway, he's almost always struggles with show he cares whether saying or showing.
You need a sympathetic, compassionate and understanding person.
He's not a bad guy, however, based on what you've written, it's unlikely he'll ever be able to fully give you what you need and you two will continue to clash and rub each other the wrong way.
Sometimes you just get tired of people bishing about their problems. I don’t know you so cannot judge but this could be the case. We all know people that are constantly involved in drama or problems. The whoa is me crowd where there are always multiple problems that are somebody else’s fault. Just reading your post that is what came to my mind.
Actually through out most of this relationship (we've known each other for 4-5 months), he has had pretty much all the drama, so much so that he often apologizes for being "too much." Very rarely have I needed him for emotional support like this, so I was surprised at how little he seemed to cared.
Like I said, not a bad guy, but this has shown me I just don't think he's that interested in me.

d My first reaction was to wonder if he's on the autism spectrum, since we get cases like that on here not infrequently. But you would have noticed that something was "off" about him, if that were the case.
Now I'm thinking, maybe he feels awkward about other people's emotional situations, and is inhibited about responding. Some people just aren't comfortable with that, even as they're the recipients of concern and comfort from others. The last possibility, of course, is what others have mentioned; he's narcissistic, and needs everything to be about him, and consistently fails to respond to the distress of others. I'm not sure if a narcissist would put themselves in a position to be caregiver or rescuer to others, like he has, though. That part of it doesn't fit.

hmm then yes a very strange response from him indeed.
Does he have a very morbid or overly dark sense of humor?
