Confused about ex

So me and my ex were together just over a year. We were like best friends and got on really well but used to argue over him wanting to go round to his friends' a lot and I didn't feel like a priority in his life so he ended it about 5 weeks ago.
I was upset at first then did a few weeks NC until he reached out to me and we chatted for a bit before he suggested meeting up which we did. I got quite emotional as I felt like he would never want to get back together and I had to accept that was it, so sent him the 'you need time alone to work out what's important to you and I'm going to work on myself, if you ever want to contact me in the future feel free' thinking i wouldn't hear from him for around 2 months and would be over it by then.
He texted me 2 days later asking how I am and was upset when I didn't reply for most of the day. I called him to tell him I wasn't trying to argue or upset him and he asked me to hang out again. We met up for breakfast today and went for a nice walk and we're holding hands kissed etc. But didn't say when we were going to meet up again and I haven't heard from him for a good few hours.
I want to get back together but not sure he does, I know I need to talk to him but worried about his answer so I'm putting it off thinking if we meet up a few more times he will change his mind and want to try again.
Anyone been in a situation like this before or have any advice? I know I'm probably just dragging it out as I don't want to lose him from my life but can't see us being friends either.

Do you think things would chang e if you got back together?

Nothing seems to have changed regarding the issues you had with him.

The best thing would be letting him know that being friends isn't working for you and unless he can change in regards to the issues you raised...you need to both move on individually.

I'm not sure how old you both are. If you're quite young...then him being with friends a lot would be normal.

Thank you for your replies :)

TBH I'm not sure if anything would change..

We're both 26, spoke to him last night to tell him how I'm feeling but he tries to ignore it as he's happy when we're together and we didn't get anywhere. I don't know whether to keep going as we are and see if it progresses back into something or just end it so save myself the stress
