Or could he be just be telling me the truth? I just find it all a little too surreal, that he could be still in love with this woman after three years (no relationship since), going to tell her about his feelings, doing what I have just done to him (only one week apart).
I wanted this to work, in fact, a couple of times he did said how “deep” our friendship is, and the best couples usually come from best friends, that he never had this with anyone in his life.
I am puzzled because I liked him but assumed that when I declared my feelings, at last, he would take the next step.
He is a 43-year-old adult; he shouldn’t be playing with my feelings! He is a beautiful person that I don’t want out of my life, but I am struggling to move on with my personal life because I am in love with him and hope that he is also in love with me but taking his time due to his depression or whatever reason.
I might be overthinking this, but I’m a woman, so that’s natural, ha, ha.
Any comments about his feelings towards me are very welcome!

I don't think he is making up stories. It is common to have feelings for someone after even a decade or two. Times does not really matters. So, I doubt that he is making up a story about talking to her.
It seems like his feelings towards you remain the same, meaning he does not have romantic feelings. Besides, he has been aware that you like him so if he wanted to make a move he probably would done so. I just don't think that he is into you. I might be wrong. I hope that I am.
If this friendship is causing you emotional pain, you may want to consider cutting it off for good (no back and forth). If in fact he has romantic feelings for you, he would eventually miss you and be with you.
