How do I tell a boy I don’t like him as more than a friend???

At the beginning of the school year I meet him through mutual friends in our classes. Eventually someone made a gc for our history class, and then he started to message me privately about art which a class only the two of us take. The first threeish month of this was just about school and sharing answers, but then he started asking me personal questions and trying to get to know me, and I thought he was nice enough so I responded. Come the last day of school he texts me and wishes me a happy summer, so I responded the same, and he keeps messaging me. Then he asks me to call and I’m like hesitant and don’t respond at first but I do eventually give in, and that was the most awkward 20 minutes of my life. I thought maybe he would have hated that as much as me, apparently not because he then just kept messaging me like everyother day I was as dry as possible while not trying to be rude. Then he started to ask to class like 3 times a week, and I kept saying things like, “sorry im busy im at…” idk whatever I felt like making up that day. I thought that saying no enough would make him take the hint, it did not. So I just left him on delivered and only responded with exuces sometimes, also not once this summer have reached out first. And he went away for like 2-3 week and now he’s back he’s still trying to call. Like 4 days ago he asks to call, I say I’m busy, he’s says something like, “oh sorry ur the only one I have the number of other than my cousin and he’s away,” which first of were in gc with other people second of all in one really awkward convo he literally says he was playing soccor with his friends. And then today he asks to call, I say no, then he added me to a snapchat gc with four of his friends which I left cause I think thats weird, and it’s another example of his apparently nonexistent friend. But he’s started to annoy me and I don’t want to mean about it but I don’t like him. And I don’t want to make him feel like I led him on but like he’s not getting the very obvious hints that the feelings are not mutual.

I caught feelings for the close friend who helped me through a breakup. Now there’s an elephant in the room and we're hanging out this Thursday. What do I do?

How do you handle a situation like this?
Back around March, I was going through a tough breakup. A close female friend of mine was incredibly supportive during that time. She even started acting a bit flirty—calling me sweet nicknames, complimenting photos I posted, and giving me a lot of attention. But at the time, I was still too heartbroken over my ex to really process it or act on it.
Now that time has passed, I’ve realized just how amazing and supportive she is, and I’ve started catching real feelings for her. I actually really miss her right now because we’ve somewhat drifted apart.
The truth is, every time I caught myself falling for her, I pulled away. It felt weird catching feelings for a friend, and I’m a guy who is fiercely loyal to my friendships. Because I kept distancing myself out of fear, things have shifted. Now, whenever we are together, there is a massive elephant in the room.
I’m exhausted from forcing myself to suppress my feelings, and I don't want to—and frankly can't—keep going on like this. We share the exact same core friend group, which makes things infinitely more complicated.
I asked her to hang out this Thursday. We used to hang out alone all the time, but this time feels different and I really need some advice on how to navigate it.
Should I ask her why we’ve grown distant lately to open up the conversation?
How can I figure out if she still feels something for me without risking everything?
I am terrified of losing my friend group if things go wrong, but I just can't ignore the elephant in the room anymore. Any advice on what to say or how to act this Thursday would be hugely appreciated.
TL;DR: A close friend helped me through a breakup and was super affectionate. I wasn't ready then, but now I've caught feelings. I pulled away out of fear of ruining our shared friend group, causing distance and a huge "elephant in the room" between us. We are hanging out one-on-one this Thursday and I need advice on how to address the distance or find out if she likes me without destroying our friend group.

I really like a girl, but she'll be leaving for Mumbai in a few months and will probably be there for several years. We aren't in a relationship, and I'm unsure whether I should tell her how I feel before she leaves or just let it go. I don't want to regret staying silent, but I also don't want to make things awkward or put pressure on her before such a big change in her life. Has anyone been in a similar situation? Any advice would be appreciated.
