When he all but says I love you, but does nothing about it

I started seeing this guy a few months ago. We hit it off right away and saw each other all the time. He got along with my friends, I got along with his friends, everything seemed to be going great. Then literally overnight he starts acting cold, no answering calls/texts, and showing little interest in hanging out. We went from seeing each other multiple times a week to maybe twice a month until it just stopped. We never stopped being friendly and this weekend he calls saying he needs to talk. When he comes over (after having a few drinks) he tells me how much he's missed me and that he's never been in "this situation before" and when he moved to the city all he wanted to do was focus on his job and family. He said how I was the first girl he met here and "wasn't looking to meet anyone and didn't expect to meet someone like me, but he did." He went on to say how it's not easy to find someone like me that I'm "one in a million" yadda yadda. A little while into the conversation he says something about how he's never said this to anyone but since he and his ex broke up (about 2 or 3 years ago) he hasn't wanted to dedicate himself to anyone but that he LOVES (emphasized the word love) hanging out with me, LOVES talking to me, LOVES everything about me. During the whole conversation I just kept asking what it was he wanted and how having this conversation would make our situation any different this week than the previous one but he couldn't really say. Right before he fell asleep (seemed half asleep already) he said i love you, we'd never said this before, and I took it with many grains of salt. I don't know what to do, I don't know if he just said these things but plans on not doing anything about them or what. So far nothing has changed and I just don't know how I'm supposed to take anything he said. ANY thoughts/comments would be appreciated

Jeezy peezy... its unclear to me what you're worried about exactly. He obviously cares about you and apparently loves you. But he needs to know that if that's true, he just can't leave you hanging like he did. If y'all truly have something special, y'all will make it through anything. In my opinion, y'all just need to sit down face to face and have a good long conversation about what both of y'all want out of this relationship, and how each of y'all would like to be treated
