Normally I'd just think he did but I've been hurt too many times to take the risk.we met at a university event, he added me on facebook, we talk on facebook chat almost everyday.its generally mildly flirtatious, more so from his side than mine (I like to be quite reserved about this sort of thing at times) he will say things like "hello beautiful" but im not sure if he's just being friendly.We get on really well, we seem to like the same things but as we've only really spoken properly on the internet I'm not sure how sincere he is or how to take these flirtatious advances.Any ideas?We havent swapped numbers yet, i'm tempted to give him mine but I'm also reluctant to make the first move.Any way I can work out whats going on in his head without making a total fool of myself? Thanks

It seems as though he does have an interest in you, but the internet is a dangerous place. I suggest you meet him in real life, and like you like him, plan some friendly dates with a few of your friends. Take things slowly is all I would say, and don't be easily tempted to start anything instantly.

Right offhand, I'd say he probably does like you - otherwise why would he talk to you on facebook as often as he does? Oh yes, and flirt?
I don't see anything wrong with letting him know you'd like to have a phone conversation with him. Just say it, and see how he responds (hopefully with, yes, that's a good idea, or I'd like that too) and then you'll swap numbers. When you speak on the phone, and better yet, arrange to meet for coffee or lunch and begin spending time together, you'll see how it goes and begin to get better acquainted....take it slow, though! What's the rush, after all?
Good luck!
