Online friend doesn't want to talk on the phone?

I met this guy on a chat site just fooling around. Months passed by and I only thought of him as a friend then we exchanged twitter accounts and I talk to him on there mostly. Then during a twitter conversation he said I love you. I said back but didn't mean it.
Later I found out he only said it to sext... He didn't have to tell me.
He then fell in love with a girl at his school and I had a major crush on this guy at my school. Sadly I was a wimp to talk to the guy and he got declined.
He said he didn't want to talk. So we didn't for a couple of weeks. I thought that was the end of our friendship. I tried moving on but he hit me up weeks after saying he was going through things. Depression, stress and anxiety.
We talk again and this time I had feelings for him. He didn't. I want to talk to him we talked once during our 3+ years of friendship. I asked to Skype but he said he felt weird to call and Skype. Shy maybe? I am too.
I was watching catfish and they mentioned if they don't want to Skype they're fake but he sends pictures that are legit.
I think he's legit.
We planned to meet but I called it official because he made me angry.
I dated this other guy online and he want so nice to him.
To be honest he confuses me.
I don't want to meet him and I doubt he want to but idk why I can't stop talking to him everyday. Maybe because of how depressed he is.
What do you think about the whole situation or anything?
