I remember when my crush and I went to a dance together. Unknowingly, she had feelings for me too, and her friend kept telling us "Ohh you should be together! You'd be so cute!" And she kept just looking awkward and stepping away from me. I thought it meant she wasn't interested.
I'm happy to say we're dating now! She explained that she was having a hard time deciding if she should get into a relationship, and her friend goading her on embarrassed her.
You guys can do it! You have a chance!
So the crush isn't reciprocated. That's fine, but the "ew" is rude and uncalled for.
If you are so inclined, here's how you respond to that:
Breath a fake big sigh of relief and say something to the effect of, "My goodness, that's a relief. I'm glad *you* said something about it because I didn't want to. It would never work... it would be an absolute mess."
Look them over and give an expression of faint and thinly veiled revulsion. Give them the feeling that you might think something's wrong with them. Double down and throw a more articulate "ew" right back at them.
Saw ew, thought of you

Mean? Yes. So is "ew."
