“I really like this guy… I have genuinely never liked someone this much before, and sometimes I think it’s just me telling myself that I like him. But I feel so genuinely happy even thinking about him. He is a little older, and currently in like a “boss” position, his family owns a restaurant I work at, and he is the most gentle, considerate, sweet guy ever. I have worked there a long time, and we love really close and I wanna leave that job, and I really wanna tell him how I feel cuz if I don’t, I think I will regret it for a long time, but I don’t know what he will think of me after that, I don’t know if I can ever face him. And my parents don’t allow me to date, but I can’t get him out of my head and I don’t want complications but I want him to know”

Someone answered with kindness...
If you really love the guy , and as you said you both are close. Considering your words that he's considerate and sweet I wanna say that telling him about how you feel will be a wise decision.
He'll understand, and what reaction he gives how he takes and talks about this will eventually help you to move forward in life.
If he accepts , many many congratulations.
And if he doesn't you'll be free from your mind and will not atleast regret about how you wanted to say and you didn't.
Life is short.
So just speak , love , live.
I wish you a good future ahead.
Be happy.
