What next?

Hi everyone, think its my first time posting on this board.
Basically about six months ago i met a friends friend and instantly clicked with him, I thought he was a bit flirty but was assured my his friend and my friends that it was all in my head... He's quite a "straight acting", country guy and I think my friends assumed that meant he couldn't be gay. But about 2 weeks ago i drunkenly told him i liked him and he told me I was in luck cause he's gay, he then told a few of our mutual friends that he thinks he's gay.

Since that everything seems to be on pause...
I texted him the day after alright just asking if he remembered the night before and he said he remembered the important bits...
Other than this no one has talked about it and I've been told that asking him about it is putting pressure on him. I've met him a good few times since and everything has been great, if anything we get on better now.

My question is where do I go from here?
should I wait for him to bring it up? (if he ever does)
or talk to him about it? (which could be putting pressure on him)

In my eyes he's done the hard bit and said it and is now waiting for someone to talk to him about it... but that could be my own wishful thinking.

I'm aware that what he's going threw now is tough and want to be there for him in the most positive way i can.

Comments/suggestions/stories much appreciated!

The person who's in the best position to make a decision is yourself.
If you felt he was flirty with you, you clicked with each other and then you hear that he thinks he's gay, it seems to me that there may be something there.
Don't sweat it. Keep chatting with him, but don't come on too strongly until he's ready. In time, you can take the plunge and ask him out or whatever, but wait until he's ready. (But don't wait forever :pac:).

This is only my opinion though and probably doesn't make too much sense :pac:.
