hmm a tricky one, i dont know what ametropia wrote, so i cant really agree or disagree, however i think its wrong to keep it bottled, otherwise itll just get worse... so give it a go, if he really is as good a friend as you make out he will either have feelings for you too or understand...
whichever way you go ill be praying for you too :)

That doesnt sound good to feel empty when he is not around. You dont need anyone else to make you feel whole. If I were you I would tell him how I feel, just go for it. If things do not work out life still goes on and we've still got alot of years before we need to get real seious about relationships. I dont really understand girls. The ones who talk to me alot just like me as a friend and the ones who avoid me tell me later on they like me more than a friend. If someone likes me more than a friend why would they avoid me? I thought it would be the other way around, they want to be around me more. Sometimes girls wont eat in front of me. That bugs me. What is it with girls and being weird with food? I think the ones with some meat on their bones look way better than the tiny little waifs that look like they are going to break if you hug them. I know they eat, they must so why not eat a big chili burger or some sausage pizza with me? just my 2cents. I hope things work out for you and that guy.

You know, God's Word doesn't say to follow your heart, it says to follow His Word. If he doesn't like you, and you tell him you do, oh well... i guarantee you will get over it quicker this way than any other. I've done this so often, and the one thing that gets you over "liking" someone is to find out that they don't like you...
On the other hand... if he does like you, don't rush it, if you really like him, you'll like him in a few weeks. Don't stress over becoming bf/gf. God's in control, He'll guide you in what to do. Just listen and obey.

It sounds like, from what you said about feeling empty, you are placing him in God's place, or making him JUST AS important as God. This isn't good... God is a jealous God, and if place this degree of value on something other than Him, He could very easily take away that other thing completely (to protect you from stranding away from Him). You need to wait until you can make God your fullness, then when a guy comes by, he will not determine whether you are empty or not.
Feeling empty when something leaves is the one surefire way to know that your worship is going to that thing. Don't make the mistake of removing God's blessing from your friendship with this guy because you aren't keeping God in higher position.

You won't do anything but hurt yourself if you put your worship and trust in this guy instead of in God. Believe it or not, this guy has a 0.00001% chance of being the guy that you will live with until you die. He will (very) probably leave, and if your emptiness is determined on his presence, you will feel empty.
