How do I get over him?

Me and my guy friend had been off and on last year in a relationship (mainly due to my reasonings) but we decided to stay friends. Over the past few months, after we both came to some realizations after an argument (where I realized how much I didn’t want to lose him, and I don’t know what he realized but he’s more attentive and engaged in the friendship) we’ve grown a lot closer in our friendship. I’ve started to become comfortable around him, too comfortable in fact but I can’t go back, and I can’t help but imagine him in these relationship contexts when he does things like suggesting activities together and we have serious discussions. While I do have guy friends, I don’t have a friend as close as him or that mean as much to me, which makes seeing him in a friend way more difficult at times. I understand where we’re at right now is a good friendship, and we both went to online school so after talking with him I’ve disclaimed any hints or clues at something more as lack of social awareness in those senses. Because of this it’s really important that my mindset stays in the place of a friend. Has anyone had a situation like this? How did you stop these thoughts or brief feelings from resurfacing?
