> I think it might be some guilt on my part, or shame or something, that I may be nicer online than in person, because in person I can't maintain the same level of engagement for extended periods of time.

:-(
I worry about that too.
I think I'm a much nicer / better person online than I am IRL (So I hate to think what people who don't like me online would make of me IRL!).
But... Well, I know in my case I vary a bit online too. When I am in a good space I feel more able to be supportive, and when I am in a bad place I have trouble doing much aside from venting and soaking up support. But it comes in roundabouts so I guess thats ok. I am like that IRL too.

It sounds like he wants to feel more emotionally connected to you.
Maybe do something you both enjoy together?
I don't know.
