This is a very complicated situation. First of all I'd like you to consider wether or not your feelings for him are truely genuine. As much as people would like to disagree, the fact of the matter is that relationships between friends sometimes do not end up the way we like them to. Before you decide to do anythin irrational you might want to determine what exactly about him makes you feel that way and if you do truely have feelings for him you may also want to consider wether or not your willing to risk your friendship with him. Unfortunatly more times than not when one person reveals that they have certain feelings for that person and that person does not return those feelings the mutual friendship they once shared can never be the same. Even if you tell him and he does not feel the same way and he still says that its ok and nothing will change between you that is not always the case. There will always be that underlying, subconscience awkwardness. So if you decide your truely in love and would rather spill your heart and risk your friendship with him then you are destined to do so. If you are not truely in love then my advice for you would to be cool with him untill you find out how he truely feels about you otherwise you may be risking the lose of an incredible friendship. i hope that I have been of some assistance to you and good luck !!
