Please Help!! 😓

RiRi

I've known this guy since May, and he's absolutely great, he helped me after a traumatic break-up and became sorta a best friend in such a short amount of time, lately we've been kinda sexting and I'm starting to have feelings for him but I'm too afraid to tell because of the possibility of being friend zoned or worse, he was abandoned by his ex girlfriend and is afraid to date, can someone please give me some advice?? 😔😔
