This person does not want to date but their friends want them to.
Hi,
First of all, I want you to know even if he's your closest friend in the world, you still have the rights to say no or reject them when someone asks if you want to go out with them. You should never feel that you're obligated to like them or date them just because they've been nice to you. So I don't want you to feel scared because you haven't done anything wrong for not wanting to date him. I would say that one of the reasons you might feel scared because you feel alone because even your friends are shipping you with him.
Shipping has always been something that I have watched my friends do to our other friends and I do join them too but if my friends tell us that they feel uncomfortable with the shipping, I would understand and stop doing it. Shipping for me, is more of a joke because at the end of the day, if they don't like each other (or in your case, the feelings are unrequited); who am I to force them to be together just because I think they'll make a cute pair? At the end of the day, it's your choice that is the most important because you know your feelings and yourself best. So what should you do about your friends? You should directly tell them you don't have any interest in dating him, or even anyone at the moment so it would be better if they stop shipping him with you. You should also tell them what them shipping you with him makes you feel because your feelings matter the most here.
You should also properly tell him that you are not interested in being in a relationship at the moment. I know that you feel afraid of his feelings for you because you have only gotten to know him recently but he still did like you and his feelings do matter as he is still a person just like you. You should properly give him a response to his feelings and if you want, you can tell him that you guys can still remain friends but you should make it clear to him that you don't promise him anything like a romantic relationship in the future.

Braza the Architect - Magical Crafter, Builder, and Adventurer!
This is the story of an older man who lived a hard but full life, being reincarnated into a fantasy world as a human-lizard hybrid. The new world is violent, magic is real, a game-like development system crushes physics and natural law under its ambivalent thumb, and myth and legend don't just meet, they chase you down to eat you.Follow Braza as he tries to make a very different life for himself in a familiar but ultimately alien world. In this story the protaginist will not just be a muscle bound monster. He is not a proper hero, willing to sacrifice himself for the good of a stranger, but neither is he a maniacal villain. He is trying to survive, and he is trying to give himself and those he deems himself responsible for a seat at the table of the"goodly", the "civilized" races. He is trying to create a secure home for his people, to arrange beneficial trade agreements, explore ancient ruins, decipher ancient runes, push the boundaries of magic to create a better life for everyone around him, to learn about the history of the world and the multiverse, and ultimately attempt to become powerful enough to take on a being that even the gods themselves fear. This is my first story and it blends many different elements and styles. It's a bit darker than most of what I have read on Royal Road, but even with that, I hope you give it a try, and I hope you like it!
