If you keep quiet, it will keep hurting you. Try to tell him in any possible way you can find, but expect two possible answers, "YES or NO".
You may get hurt when he says he doesn't feel the same way, but that's another chance to go on, you would surely find someone rightly made for you if you don't give up or breakdown.
A lot of people have had such issues lately, but over time, those who believed encountered someone who saw the irresistable beauty in them and whom they also find irresistable and together have built beautiful and happy homes for themselves and their kids.
We have to stay strong to overcome things in this world, or they would conquer us and we're alive for a purpose.
Best of Luck.
