Replace him with a suitable substitute on some dating platform. If you're in a major city, that shouldn't be difficult. If you're out in the sticks like I am, alcohol may be your only friend. Maybe get a job or attend a college in a place where gays can be gay.

i’d certainly like to go to a college where gays can be gay, but i live in oklahoma… i doubt there’s anything like that here. i also live in the country so online dating wouldn’t work
University of Oklahoma has an organization and there are probably more at other colleges in the state. I can attest to the difficulties of online dating. There may also be LGBTQ resources in your town or nearby, like a social gathering at a community center or something.
The friend that spooned you and was slightly physical and affectionate is homophobic? I was not expecting that..
i haven’t actually asked him yet, but one of his friends said he was. i also don’t wanna make things awkward between us. at the same time though… i’m also curious what would happen if i did ask him. i’m not 100% sure he’s actually straight
Oh man.. When our crush gets even hotter.. Ya, that is though. I know the feeling bro :((
Look into meditation. Learn to meditate properly, there are good books on that. Learn to acknowledge that things are impermanente and unsatisfactory. Try different ways of viewing experience and see which one decreases suffering. When you are feeling badly because of him, look into your thoughts and notice how they dissappear. Does that help? If not, try to widen your experience. Use your sensory doors, hearing, sight, taste, contact. Listen to the sounds and notice what you notice. Same for sight, etc. (Sorry for the rambling, I am into meditation, if that's not obvious)
Other than that, just keep busy. Find a hobby. Be with your other friends. Make new friends. Join a gym, etc..
