Dear Sona:

What will happen do you think if  you tell him about your feelings as a friend, taking responsibility for these  feelings, that is not suggesting  that he led  you on or made any suggestions that he  didn’t make, telling him that you appreciate his help, and listen to what he  thinks and feels on the matter.

I don’t know if it is a good  idea. Maybe it is, maybe this kind of conversation will make it possible for a friendship to continue while pretending you don’t  feel what you feel for him will be too difficult and make  it  impossible for a friendship to continue in this new circumstance, you being single.
