I'm sorry that you are regretting the change in relationship from therapist to friend.

Unfortunately this is why most professional bodies don't recommend - some even forbid - any kind of personal relationship between ex-clients and therapists to develop once therapy has ended, there is too much of a power imbalance; especially so soon, they normally recommend a break of at least 2 years, if allowed at all.

I would be quite concerned about your ex-T's motives here because he most definitely should know better. The first rule of therapy is to do no harm to the client, and his behaviour is doing exactly the opposite of that.

No one can tell you what to do here, as it's your life and your decision, but for your own sanity, peace of mind and protection, it would be better if you brought a halt to this friendship straight away. You have already said you wish he was still your T, but now there is no going back.

I hope you can make the right decision for you.
