It sounds to me like neither of you are ready for a relationship. You still are working through your ex issues. No harm in spending time with someone you like though, just take it really slowly. Make sure you aren't eachother's rebounds.
Are you with him because you like him, or because you don't like being alone?
The answer to that question will tell you a lot about your relationship.
