I see him more as a friend, a good friend but there's a spark there, but not that much of a spark?

Look you told him straight out that you don't want anything serious, so you where honest with him. Your head is all over the place at the moment, and you need your friends at a time like this to support you. As long as you are honest with him then just go with the flow and see what happens. You may develop sexual feelings for him down the line. Don't put to much pressure on things. Just take it the way it is and see what happens.

But if you are just friends, you should not get drunk and flirt with him. There is nothing wrong with just being friends forever - but be true and honest - don't send mixed messages. You should keep everything "just friends" until you are absolutely sure you want to move to "intimate friendship". And it would be OK if that never happened...

I think you are messing this poor guy about as you aren't being clear. He probably thinks he has a chance. I think you should do the slow let down. Gradually stop texting and back off the meetings.
You are going to lean on him more and more through your dad's illness and it's just not fair. If he's a decent guy then treat him fairly.
