Not sure what do to with my BF of 7 months

So Me(23F) and this guy(27M) have been together for 7 months now. I am finding things are getting more difficult.

He gets really depressed and he won’t leave his apartment. So I usually go over to his house. Since we have been seeing each other, he has yet to come to my house. He has not met my family or friends. I have invited him over several times but he always says “When im in the right space”

But it’s at the point where I feel upset. And my family and friends think it’s weird he hasn’t come around. I also feel like I put more effort into the relationship as a whole. I discussed that with him. I drive to him every time. I literally buy him groceries and we just sit there together. I try to be there for him emotionally. But It’s starting to affect me because he won’t even come to my house. He won’t even answer my phone calls because he’d rather text. He won’t go to restaurants with me because he is having a bad day. But it seems like it’s everyday. He has been close to suicide twice. and he said that both times “Idk what I’d do without you”

And let’s add in that he and I have never had sex. He says it’s because if his medications but every time I try to talk about it, he shuts it down. And I am starting to feel very sad and like hidden in a way. Like I can’t express myself because he “has it worse”

My sister died 6 months ago and when I told him he didn’t speak to me for over a day because he said he was overwhelmed and didn’t know how to reply. Since then, he has been there for me but like I said it’s only if I go over to his house.

I’ve tried to be kind and understanding but I don’t think I can any longer. I’ve spoken to him multiple times about my issues and nothing has changed. He makes me feel like a burden sometimes. Not sure what to do from here.
