20f in a desperate need of friend right now I really have no one to talk to, even though the post maybe long but please read it and give me some advice and if you can talk to me

Never in my life have I dated anyone, started college in 2024 and made a big friend group and one of them became very close friend of mine, I'm actually kind of reserved person, had two friends in my life, and suddenly he also became my one of the closest friends. He used to joke about how he was gonna find a girlfriend if I made someone my

boyfriend, and he liked it when everyone spread rumours about us dating, and he also used to send me reels that sometimes felt like he was dropping hints about him liking me, he even started calling me regularly for 5 months continuously daily not once a day but multiple times and we talked for more than 1 hours everyday.

He also got close to my family and I talked with his mother and sisters too, after seeing i got that much close with someone even my mom dad was happy as I never had dating planned in my bucket list. whenever my brother was around when he called me and joked that we were talking on video calls (even if we weren't, just talking on normal call) he joked with my brother that we were talking on video calls, and when I got embarassed he used to its very easy to ragebait you.

Never had feelings for him even with rumours going on, but talking on calls with him was something else, I grew on phone calls, then recently 4 weeks earlier he went home (he stays away from home for college) and stopped calling me, at first it was nothing then I told my other two friends and they told me maybe I've fallen for him and I should tell him aboutit, he's not gonna reject me they said the worst that can happen would be he asking for some time (those two friends of mine also got close to him through me).

I grew the courage and told him about it on message on 16th May and he says everything he has done to me was nothing but his normal behaviour, and he didn't like me that way, now he says that if I want to continue our friendship the way it previously was we can, and I said yes, I'm not gonna ruin what we had for the stupid feelings i got.

Currently I have no one to talk to about this as my closest two friends who had told me to confess to him are feeling too guilty and the one to whom I shared everything about became my reason for heartbreak.

I really need someone to talk to and need your opinion on this matter, was it really my fault to confess to him? Should I have waited a little longer the answer may have changed?Or what I did was correct?

Even though I'm still talking to him now I have just pushed my feelings away, I don't wanna lose him, lose the friendship we had.

He says he never thought of me that way, if he wanted to date me he would have approached me with that in his mind, but he never wanted anything like this.

He also says we can always stay as we were like before he can forget all I said to him, and now we are talking like we used to but no phone calls.

Please pleaseeee don't ignore this post, I really need some advice some help some motivation even some scolding maybe

This thing has now started to affect my health too, so please don't ignore this
