I think HmmmmIdk has the right general idea, but for me, I think it's a guy who, yes, is not used to feeling and confessing this stuff, but I also think he was turned down and is now trying to recover.
There's something really difficult about spilling your guts to someone, especially if they're close to you, and they just don't feel the same way. I think this song is about rising above that feeling and trying to move forward. It's really beautiful.
