Anyway, I moved away when I was 12, and didn't talk to him until recently when we got back in contact. I think that I now actually like him quite a lot and I don't know if he likes me. Also, I don't know how much of me likes him now, and how much its the 11 year old me still grasping onto the past. That probably made no sense, but any advice or anything would be appreciated.

 Well let me be the first to tell you that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE! I would take time in getting to know him once again. If you were best friends then perhaps it's the love of a rekindled friendship. Sometimes people change and they are no longer the person you remember. Even if they are it's not a sure sign that you should fall for them.
I imagine you are reliving some old feelings about this young man, it is possible that things can grow from that. Only time will truely tell. Have fun reconnecting and let things happen naturally. Take it slow and make sure that what you are feeling is more than a friendship before you try taking it to another level. After all hon you both are much older and matured now and the old friendship you had probably has outgrown you both. It perhaps will give way to a serious relationship in time.
Try dating him as a friend, letting the dates and friendship evolve into whatever it needs to be. I am sure that either way you will have gained alot of good times together even if you only wind up as BEST FRIENDS.
My best to you and your friend. May your times apart though seperated by the years, always bring you the best of memories. May you find new memories that will make the years ahead all that you both desire.
God bless,
Blue_Angel
