tried to unlove and be friends

Im a girl in uni, known a friend (guy) for 2 yrs. I like him, he probably likes me back, but this never came up/we never talked about it, were both not the outgoing type.
due to different religions we have theres no chance it’ll ever work. I managed to accept that fact and tried to unlove, and see him as friend only. course it hurts. I see him everyday and we’re in same classes/course and we’re good friends, get along very well.
He’s very 'gentleman' in his attitude. havent seen many like that before. Very polite, ethical, everythin, example when walking together he always lets me in/out the door first and holds the doors n such.
The annoying thing is that I sometimes wonder if I’ll see someone else like that. Uni is the place were u meet many people and I cannot like someone else nowadays, until I graduate and we both go our separate way.

I know this isn’t usual case, but anyone else familiar with it?
Any comments in general… tnx

It's true what they say we love\desire\want the ones we can't have.

I am sure this relationship and your feelings for this guy development almost out of the blue like all things love comes and goes along with people. I don't know what advice I can really give I have been in a situation myself where we knew a relationship wouldn't work as we had been friends for to long and other factors but besides that I don't know. You meet one guy like that and I know for a fact his attitude isn't selective so I am sure you will meet more.

if you keep thinking you'll never meet anyone else you wont!
i understand how it will be hard to love someone else now, but you will one day, maybe you'll always remember him, but you'll get over him.

thats if theres absolutely no way for you two to get together, which will obviously be the better option
