<human>: Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?

original: 

So I texted him earlier today, this is what I said;
Hey. I hope work doesn't super suck right now. Whenever you get a chance I'd like to hear what you thought of last night. And hey, if any of that was a dumb intoxicated mistake on your part, I understand. Please just tell me, I can take it.

He didn't respond till this evening after he got off of work;
Sorry, been running around all day! 
Work sucked for a bit! 
I was definitely intoxicated, but did what I did and knew what I was doing! I felt at that moment I wanted to kiss you, I just don't want to mess up our friendship!

So I responded with;
So, that's what you want for us? To stay friends? And I'm sorry work sucked for a bit. Hopefully it was only a bit.

And now I'm waiting to hear back from him again. I'd like to talk to him face to face about it, but our schedules make that sort of thing hard to do with short notice.

What do you think he means? Does this mean he wants to just be my friend, or he doesn't want to risk losing our friendship by attempting a relationship, or what?
<bot>: I'm still confused and riding the knives edge between giddy and reliving everything, and dreading that I'm going to go through the pain of being rejected by him again.
