I've known him for 7 years, dated him for 1 of those years. There's no need to impress me. And out of that whole conversation, he asked me something about me once, and didn't even respond to what i said)  I'm worried that the Hollywood scene is going to ruin him, and i'll end up being interviewed for an E! true Hollywood story on him in a few years)

Give him time Dani. This happens to a lot of people when they first get some success in Hollywood, especially when it happens fast. Give him a year out here to figure out that its all an illusion and that what he is doing is just a job like any other. If he doesn't get it by then, well... actually, I've never known anyone who didn't figure it out eventually and revert back to their normal self.
