Please help, advice or comforting words...?

he said 'the better it gets the more i push it away' and that it had been like this with his last serious girlfriend (2 1/2 yrs ago). i told him i wanted to be the one he gets past that with. 'maybe i will get over this with you'. the way things have been, he had been holding this back for a couple of weeks for my sake (I've had a bunch of issues, depressed, diagnosed with hypothyroidism, failing finance, and ended up in the hospital because of stress related chest pains) but I half jokingly half serious said ';you never kiss me anymore'; so that brought about the whole thing. I ended up staying with him and his family last night at beach b/c I didn't trust myself to drive back alone yesterday and he invited me to stay on after what happened. Last night we even slept together (not sex) like nothing had happened. I really do love him and I really do think he's the one. But if he can't get past this then there's no hope... I'm really confused, he even kissed my forehead when I was leaving.Please help, advice or comforting words...?
From a persons perspective who is a victim of depression, I was in a relationship like this...I dont want to blame depression 100% but when i was going through the darkest or darkest stages of depression.. i had my really bad days in which im sure you know but there were days when i didnt even realise how much i pushed my boyfriend away and then i aspect a hug and he'd be like ';Oh now you want a hug'; ! It sounds like he doesnt understand what your going through and that you need your space when you need to deal with your issues! I have body dysmorphic disorder so there were more days when he'd want sex but i couldnt give it due to my body paranoia issues..this is a really difficult time to go through and he needs to realise that, he should be holding your hand and supporting them really bad days !! you need a urget talk.. get everything out in the open , its not fair for you to stay confused on top of everything elese your going through
