I have knowen my friend for a year and half now and recently got feelings for him I told him in a stupid text which i've regreted, I tried denying it when he said he just wants to stay mates and I had to agree with it as I didnt want the friendship ruiend!.
Anyway just lately the feelings are getting stronger and hurts like hell, he doesn't feel same way yet everytime I try and argue with him so I can end the friendship cause of these feelings I have, when i'm in a mood and text him saying I want the friendship over with he texts saying "i'd still like to be friends but its up to you"
He obviously knows I have some sort of feelings for him when I denied it the first time, so why does he still want to be friends with me, can I keep the feelings in and remain friends? Or best to end the friendship quietly and not tell him friendship is over which I don't want but has to be done so I can get over him
