I think I’ve fallen for my friend

I’ve realised today that all this time I may have fallen for a close friend- I’m supposed to see them soon. I don’t think they like me back though. Should I say I have feelings when I seen them? I’m worried they’ll be freaked but I never take risks. I know we care about each other a lot so I don’t know if my feelings are just confused with a healthy friendship? I feel a deep gut wrenching feeling about the friend right now and can’t stop thinking about them..I’ve not felt like this for a long time. I’ve never been in love/ no one’s ever had that strong feelings for me so I have nothing to compare it to. The sad thing about this is I’ve moved away and this friend is 500 miles away.

Pretend there's nothing. Interact as usual.

Well there's no right or wrong thing to do in this case. Let me recommend a great song by Daft punk. It's called instant crush. I always think of it whenever such a situation arises. It goes like

Kinda counted on you being a friend
Can I give it up or give it away?
Now I thought about what I wanna say
But I never really know where to go
So I chained myself to a friend

I think of it as you can chain yourself (keep a friend) to a friend by not letting them know about your feelings or you can take a risk and see what happens (unchain and be vulnerable).
