I stand by conversation as the best way of sorting these things out. If you're honest and forthright (and it sounds like you're like that in most respects) then there's no reason not to just ask him up front if he feels anything more.
The best mate for you is someone who you feel physically attracted to and who is attracted to you, but who can also be a great friend. If you can have that, then I say go for it. If he doesn't want it he'll let you know.
