Guy's Behavior

My guy friend makes me so happy and confused. I don't know what he's thinking half the time. We can talk for hours on the phone. What should I do?

So I've been hanging out with my guy friend for some time now. We've known each other for a little bit over a year. We help each other out. He takes me out for lunch and dinners. We workout together. We go to the same school and are in the same career program together. He is very indifferent and doesn't show a lot of affection, because he says he doesn't like anyone knowing how he feels and what he's thinking. He took me out for my birthday as a thank you for helping him study. He's very playful. We talk about everything from relationship problems to sex to bowel movements lol. He is single. Just recently I told him I liked him and his response was "woah, what are you doing", then I said " I guess ruining our friendship. I'm sorry." And he said it's okay, your just not thinking clearly, you're just in a vulnerable state." I guess now I'm more confused. I never thought he liked me, but everyone else around me said he does. He even introduced me to his friends and invites me to go out drinking with them. But now I'm embarrassed to even say anything to him. I mean how would I know he does or did like me? Side notes he's 38 and I'm 27. He even said hugging me felt weird and didn't want to be awkward 😞
He calls and texts all the time. He will be at work and we can talk up to 2-3 hours at time and I won't notice the time going by. I feel like I might have overestimated him liking me. Now we haven't talked for a day. I feel like I pushed him away and lost a friend
