Hey Gracie,
I can only say please be careful.
Be careful that he's not simply trying to re-kindle the friendship because it suits him now, for whatever reason. Don't let yourself be the convenient fall-back friend. You deserve better than that. You deserve to know that he wants your friendship for what you and it bring to his life, not because the novelty of whatever has separated you for a year has worn off. You deserve nothing less than total honesty. You also need to be totally honest with yourself. BTW, if you tried to maintain the friendship before this, how did he respond to you?
Don't want to see you hurt again Gracie. Setting and maintaining your boundaries are really important.
