Rome wasn't built in a day, and love is no different. Your friendship is blossoming and obviously you two are very close.
Your still young and to you things will always seem as going to slow. Just put the breaks on your feelings for the moment and cherish the time you are spending together now. Given time, his feelings will develop.
He's just come out of a Long Term Relationship and this will automatically make his feelings slower to grow as the hurt from the split isn't always easy to take. Give him time and be there for him. Don't rush anything otherwise you could just push him away which is something I'm sure you dont want
Take care and hope my advice helps. Would love to receive updates on your progress

Sounds like you have a friends with benefits relationship. Nothing wrong with that if that's what you want, but it seems like you want more and he doesn't.If I was OK with being in a FWB, I would stay...but if I really wanted more I would leave because I wouldn't want my heart broken. At least he was honest with you.Good luck.
