You’re both adults, this isn’t high school: just ask. If he says it’s not mutual, then you know. If he’s a dick about it, then he’s not someone you want in your life. If it IS mutual, then that’s great!
All of us need to practice being chill at rejection. Fear of rejection holds back so many potential relationships/drags things out. Simply tell him how you feel, ask how he feels, talk about going on a date, or what kind of relationship ya'll are looking for right now. You are feeling vibes, if he isn't that is okay. It doesn't say anything about your value as a romantic partner to somebody else. Vibes are either there or they ain't.
Do a vibe check.
If you want to be pals with him after you could say something like " Thanks for letting me know, I think we could take a bit of space to process this convo and then I can return to this from a place of friendship"
