Emotions make us all pathetic. I wouldn't worry about it. It's worth it so long as they make you happy, though. I think, anyway.
I wasn't asking what he felt so much as what you felt. Is he just a friend that you care for and are attracted to, or is it something more? As to just being another toy... Have you ever seen him be involved with a friend or work colleague before? It might be different in that case. He does very clearly have an attachment to you already, so maybe he would be less hesitant to deepen that than he would be to allow himself form an attachment to someone new in the first place...
Does being with him help you, when you're unhappy? Or have you never been in that situation with him, and it's just a feeling that you have? Do you think he would want to do that for you?
...Maybe things between the two of you wouldn't have to be the great grand romance of you life. Maybe you just need someone to be affectionate with as you're still grieving, and that might be enough for him if he's not interested in anything long-term. It might be worth considering, if you don't think his... inability to get involved in something... more wouldn't end up hurting you worse than you are now.
