 Sounds sort of back burner to me. Really, a lot of guys aren't big texters. I know I'm not. To me, texting should be about sending a quick message with a confirmation then done. Not an extended back and forth. If you want to talk with me, call me. See, men are pretty simple.
Now, here's the thing. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER admit feelings via text, email, etc, unless you have absolutely zero way to talk to them. Confessions of feelings are best done in person so you can gauge their reaction. Their body language as well as their reply will be a huge indication. The phone can be ok, but is less ideal.
Most people resort to texts, notes, etc when they are too scared of rejection. The problem is that many people will be left hanging. It's pretty safe to assume he doesn't have the same feeling for you that you do for him. If he did he would have at least mentioned the fact you admitted feelings, unless you were subtle about it.
Really, you didn't give us much to go on, so I've given you all I can, and probably more than I should have. Good luck, but remember, he's away, so any sort of "relationship" isn't going to be much for a while anyway.
