[20F] How to get over drunken hookups with my close friend [19M]?

We've been friends for 4+ years now, in the same friendship group of 8 people - we're all really close and hang out a lot. On holiday a few weeks ago we were all drunk and this guy and I were the last ones hanging out on the sofa so we started making out.

We completely ignored what had happened the next day, didn't mention anything, didn't tell our other friends. Then it happened again on another night, and this time we kept kissing for like an hour pretty intimately... We all drove home the next morning and I messaged him about it that night, he said it "probably wasn't the smartest decision" and I asked him not to tell our friends what had happened because it would make things awkward...

Fast forward to last weekend, I went to his house with some others on the night before my birthday so naturally i got very drunk haha. I remember verryyy little past 1am but I woke up in his bed naked and I remember parts of us kissing and other stuff... so when I got home I messaged him asking what happened and he said we didn't have sex but "did other stuff".

The next day I realised I was starting to get feelings for him (i catch them so easily for guys I hook up with) - we saw each other at a bar with the rest of our friends so i messaged him afterwards asking if he wanted to hang out sometime this week and he said we should probably give it some time because "it could get weird" and "then that would be bad".

Soooo now I have to try and forget about this guy who I see pretty frequently in my friend group.... help! We also message each other every day anyway so that makes things more difficult.
