<human>: Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?

EDIT: How do I convince him that I am WORTH dating?

So he and I have been hanging out a LOT recently with our group of friends [19-24m/f] and even more recently its been just the two of us hanging out alone. Basically its like he and I are always together, and if we find something to do with the group, then we do it, if no one else can then we do it by ourselves. 

I know he likes me because I've been told by someone who is close to both of us that he has told her that he does like me. It's not so easy to just like ask him out on a date or ask him to be my boyfriend and I'll explain why next. 

He's found himself refusing to date because he went through a couple bad relationships and now he's convinced everyone is the same. 

I know I'm not the same as his other relationships, and I REALLY like him, I just want to be able to love him openly and receive that love back. 

My efforts so far include jogging with him almost every night but really its every other night, going to his football games that he plays with the local league, playing volleyball with him and his group of friends, and the biggest thing I've done is try to help him cope with his depression. 

He confided in me by telling me that his last ex brushed it off like it was a joke and that depression isn't serious. He's told me when he has and hasn't taken his meds and I have been actively trying to keep him occupied and busy so he doesn't have the opportunity to think depressing thoughts. 

I really love him and want to be able to show him more and more. 

I want to make him mine. I've honestly never cared about anyone as much as I do him. 

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
<bot>: I like him,he likes me, I'm trying to make him my boyfriend but he refuses to date due to bad experiences with exes. How do I convince him I'm not like the others?
