Dear Hemaingway1:
Good to read from you again!
You can tell him that you are interested but that you don’t want to do all the pursuing, that you hope he does some of it himself. Then wait. If he makes one pursuing move within a reasonable amount of time, within a week, make the next. Then wait again. If he doesn’t make the next move, don’t make yours. I don’t see any other way.
I hope you post again with an update about the situation, hopes it goes well.
