I'm willing to entertain this possibility, even though it makes me feel a little self-aggrandizing.

Thank you, Bob.

My opinion is that this guy is hurting/deluding himself and is in for a great deal more hurt unless Rococo really puts the brakes on even being close friends with him. Infatuations don't dissipate without distance.

Okay, but if it's true and he really does have these feelings about me, how do I put the brakes on? It seems awful to say to your best friend, "we can't hang out anymore because I suspect you might be interested in me romantically." And what if I ask him and he says, no he doesn't feel that way about me? Do I still have to "put the brakes on" to be safe? The last thing I want to do is hurt him. I really, really love him. But more like in the way that Rev Jen loves Faceboy (minus the past sex) than in the way that Keith loves Kat.
