well, most of it... i know at the end it says i love you... but i tried translating the whole thing myself and all i got was something like this.(i dont think it is right) "i had feelings for you but you changed because of me and keep your emotions on the inside, so i love you..."

or something like that.... i just want a translation from someone who knows japanese alot better than i do..

(btw, this sentence has nothing to do with me... i am reading a story that a friend wrote on the net.)

He may have been looking for ga, the subject marker, but anyway it isn't necessary at all and doesn't fit grammatically into most sentences.

No problem. You could also think of a translation with my "deep and unchanging feelings." There are a lot of particular phrasings that are hard to write without laughing too much in English.

This being the "Learning Japanese" subsection, I was sort of hoping to walk him through figuring the thing out rather than handing it to him on a platter.

It's a translation that seems to be very removed from where the OP is right now. I hope the next set of questions are ones that he can more realistically learn from.
