Relationship advice

. I just got out of a 2 year relationship. Ive know this guy for about 9 years i had a huge crush on him for years & so did he . But besides that we never dated. I guess what he wants is a relationship. But he knows im not ready for one . But im not sure if hes being completely honest , he has had a few girlfriends & he does have a lot of girls after him ... Maybe later on i do want to give him a chance but for now im not sure maybe just hangout and see where that leads us to. I just need help on what to say please!!!
