Lots of long term relationships grow out of friendships to start with, so all is definitely not lost.
The question however is whether you are going to go on dating and looking at other guys, or are you going to wait around for him to get more in the relationship zone.
The issue is of course that you could be waiting a long time. The "just want to be friends" part often arises after you have had a few face to face meetings, and one party or the other decide its not quite what they're looking for. I would take some consolation that he has indicated a willingness to remain friends. Lots of guys would just walk away and cut off all contact.
A good friend where you can just meet, have a coffee and talk sh!t is better than no friend at all.
Either way I hope you find what your looking for
