In that case, if your feelings are that strong and deeply rooted, than it doesn't serve either of you to continue the friendship. In fact it's not really a friendship at all if you think about it. Let it go. If it seems appropriate, then explain why, otherwise he will hopefully get the hint, the friendship will wane as Aggie said, and you can both get on with your lives.
