Unfortunately he caught feelings that you didn't and wants more out of the relationship than you are prepared to give. It's likely that, at least until he finds someone who does want the same relationship as he's looking for, those feelings aren't going to go completely away.
He's definitely being the jerk by not respecting your boundaries and accepting your wishes, especially while you're going through a tough time. But while you don't owe him a relationship, he doesn't owe you a friendship if it's going to hurt him knowing you don't feel the same way he does.
This is something that's going to have grown over the whole time you've known each other, so it's going to take time or someone else showing him what he's looking for, for that to shift back down to just being friends.

I don't have some long opinion regarding this, but I can say your situation is little bit tricky. It seems that he doesn't "understand" and keep pushing in that direction which you are not obligated to take. Just leave as it is, don't have contact with him and you will help him more like that instead keeping him close and giving fake hope. I know it is hard but I think its only right way in this situation.

I don't see what losing your father has to do with having a relationship. Your father would want you to move forward with your life. Why would this guy (who you know very well) not be as good for you as a stranger? Is there something wrong with him, or he is just not somebody you are attracted to?
That's not a long story short, that's long as hell. Could you summarize it?
