I Think My Step Brother (Kinda) Loves Me As More Than A Step Brother

[Essex47]

hes 3 years older that me and i've known him for just over 3 years. we used to hate eachother but recently hes been really nice.
main story: hes was going out with this girl that im close with (also 3 years younger) but he was kinda cheating on her with my bestfriend so i told her. but i had a boyfriend and were also kinda going out and ever since they broke up we've been really close and he keeps sending messages saying i love you but i only love him back as a brother. what should i do?? xx

I would kinda tell him exactly that you only kinda love him as a brother and it kinda won't ever go any further than that. Kinda sounds an unreliable fellow if he cheats on his girlfriend.
