Flirting

Guys, Guy Bestfriend, fooling around and his intentions?

My guy best friend went through a break up with this girl he really loved about 10 months ago. He’s been healing but occasionally he still thinks about her and gets sad. I helped him through his break up as he helped me through a difficult one of mine. We’re really close. I know almost everything about him and he knows almost everything about me. In the past few months we’ve crossed some lines and started talking sexually. We sext a lot (pics but everything is covered up), if we’re alone I’m not afraid to rub his dick through his pants, we spoon, we cuddle, we say I love you, he kisses my neck, forehead, hands, shoulders, he gives me back rubs, I play with his hair, he grabs my butt and boobs (tho very hesistently). we do all these things yet we are “just friends”. We don’t kiss. Or makeout. I love our relationship but also, I do have feelings for him, and I don’t know if he does for me. If somehow he’s managed to keep all that seperated. I kissed him once, and he didn’t really react, we just continued cuddling like nothing had happened. And later we were texting and he said he liked it and he wanted to kiss me. Since then he hasn’t tried to kiss me and I haven’t tried to kiss him. Am I crazy for thinking he’s not interested bc he hasn’t tried to kiss me? Is it possible he doesn’t have feelings for me at all? Or maybe he is holding back because he’s still not completely over his past girlfriend? I just want to know what is most likely. I’d like to add we have a very deep friendship, this isn’t like some guy i started fooling around with and now I’m hung up over, he truly is my bestfriend in the whole world. He understands me and knows me in a way no one else does, and he’s said the same about me. Even if all the sexy stuff and cute things went away, we would still be solid. I know I could just ask him about his feelings, but I’m afraid to tell him I have feelings for him.
