tell him to check his spam folder, sometime they end there, if he deleted everything there accidentally, try to send it again

They should check all of their email accounts and in spam folders to see if they received the password reset email.  If they didn't then they should try again to reset it.
If they still don't get an email then try to get into the account using the possible passwords, assuming they either have them logged somewhere or have a set of passwords they use.

If that doesn't work, then it looks like they have lost the account and should start a new one, it's only really bad if they had positive trust or it was an high activity account.

I believe You can PM Theymos for it!
If it was a High Ranked Account , you should get it back.
And if it belongs to you , Provide a proper proof like signing a message

Can you tell me which email provider is your friend uing? Some of them have problem with Hotmail*. I think your friend is also using it? If not, check every folder or click unread(if it supports), Gmail supports this.

If your friend can't see it, probably, you entered a wrong or a different email address. Your friend may have to proove the ownership of the account to recover it. See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0

Can you please answer to my above question(s)?

and I tried to PM theymos he never responded to me, even though I've been a few times makes the PM to theymos

One PM might not do anything as his inbox is flooded with PMs most of the time. Try to send PM once in a week or two. Don't forget to include proofs.
