Should Donnie just move on from April?

Even though its obvious that Donnie is attracted to her, he never made it explicitly clear to her that he is interested in her AND wants to do something with that interest.

Anyway. I just hope by next season this question will be obsolete.

Because he feels he can't.

With everything that has happened to April's dad and April herself, you know just based on Donnie's character that if he told her now during everything that has happened to her would be like he was taking advantage of her when she's vulnerable. Which you know he wouldn't do, which is why we still have what we have.

Casey can get away with this because he wasn't there for any of that stuff that happened and doesn't anything about April's past.

Donnie knows everything that's happened and feels he can't tell her until he resolves everything, which of course by then, Casey and April will be together and it will be too late.
