Capricorn an depression

I wanted to ask you fine Cappys about something. Okay so I have this friend who is a Scorp-Sag cusp with a moon in Sag and Ascendant Cap. He and I dated for a while but he had to move back home after he graduated so we broke up. We still talk all the time and we still have strong feelings for each other. The other night he and I were talking I could sense something was wrong and when I tried to talk to him about it he kept dodging it. He has in the past helped me through some very difficult situations in my life and I just want to be there for him the way he was and still is for me. The problem is he absolutely hates getting help and just doesn't want to talk about his problems with me. I honestly feel kind of hurt that he won't share what's going on in his life with me after everything we have been through together and how loving and supportive we have been of each other. He gets depressed a lot and I am pretty sure the reason he gets that way is because he doesn't feel like he is good enough. When we dated he would absolutely give me his all but the problem was he is simply not as intense as I am and it would wear him out trying to match me. I'm frustrated as every time I bring it up he gets sensitive and doesn't want to talk and when I try yo cheer him up he's like: "I don't like compliments!".
Do you have any insight as to why he might be feeling this way? It really bothers me that he won't tell me what is bothering him.
