Its ok to feel something for a gay friend who wont seem to talk to me?

OK, im bisexual, still completely in the closet, and had never told anyone except one gay friend. We are not so close, but he kind of came out to me more accidentally than on purpose. Well, for not making it long, he said he trusted me so he told me he was gay and how he realized he liked boys, so i really felt like i trusted him (besides I always found him very attractive) i decided to trust him and i told him i liked boys to, but i never had a sexual encounter with one before. He told me that i had to experiment before i decided if I was gay or not and then asked me if i liked someone, and i told i liked him. Told him i felt great being with him and i wanted to be with him more time and he said he felt really great being with me to and that he felt like a conection between the two of us besides we rarely saw each other. From that day i havent seen or even crossed a word with him. I don't wanna text him or something about the situation because Ithink i'll look to desperate, but i always see his facebook pictures and feel something for him even though I feel like he is avoiding me, is that normal?
