What do I do?

First off, you'll have to brace yourself for what may come of it. There are many things that could happen, he could not be into that leading to him being uncomfortable being in the same house as you or he could be okay with it. I would never suggest trying to get into something like that with a roomate. Same sex or not. My honest opinion.

Good luck,

Err on the side of prudence and assume he has no interest in you. For one thing best never assume his feelings are the same as yours, or that he is bi, or gay as you yourself are.

Since no one knows about your sexuality, don't act on it until you do, or somebody(S) could well be looking for a place to stay. He probably has no clue as to your attraction, so don't assume any advances you make are welcome, or wanted, since he has ignored them any way, out of disinterest, or ignorance.

I suggest staying on the side of good behavior for room mates. The last thing you need is to complicate your living space.
