Answer
I don't want to say for you to not overreact because this is serious but I think you're scaring yourself into having nightmares. Talk to the guy and tell him that you can't talk to him anymore until you don't feel this way and he doesn't feel like he does toward you. Then don't talk to him. Let the feelings go away. Or you can stay in contact but just check on each other and talk about his fiance sometimes. It will keep you in check. Don't kiss him anymore. Don't hold hands. Don't go anywhere with him where you are alone. Talk to a minister if you feel it comes to that. At works, make sure you are professional and don't spend a lot of extra time together.

I can answer things that have to do with any sort of question about religion. I am a Mormon and I have been through my entire life so if you ask me questions about that religion I can give you facts and I might be able to explain things a little better than people that aren't of that faith. If you have a question on whether or not something is okay to do I can look at it through my "Mormon eyes" or if you would like me to I can just look at it on a plain religious level. I will do my best to anwer your question. Please include you age with your question.

Experience

I have been a youth leader in my church since I was twelve. My neighborhood is very religious so I have gained knowledge from them as well.
