Is there still hope for us to be together? or should I leave it alone?

My ex broke up with me a year ago cause we both were immature and needed growing to do and understand eachother more. He works in oilfield, so it was hard to get use to him being gone.
We never cheated or been abusive towards eachother either.
Months after the breakup, he said he tried to reach out to me but he couldn’t cause I’ve blocked him. I had to so I can get over the breakup
I’ve unblocked him a month ago and not reached out to him, BUT HE REACHED OUT TO ME
I was shock cause I was excited to hear from him again, but I had to keep my cool and not tell him how I feel.. just incase he didn’t feel the same way.
He wanted to know how I was doing, what I have going on in my life, and to tell me he still cares, thinking of me and still have feelings for me.
I’ve told him the same, however, we can’t be together right now cause he lives long distance now and he can’t move to the city I live it due to his kids.
He kept saying he still cares about me, I’m always in the back of his mind, and he still has feelings for me.
Is there still hope for a relationship in the future or am I getting the wrong idea?
