Hi! I (18F) and he (19M). So I’ve been hanging out with this guy once a week, for the past two weeks. He reached out to me first as friends and we had a good time together. I really enjoy his company. He is nice and sweet. Everyday, he texts me first. He already stated that it wasn’t a date the first time. For the second time, he simply mentioned he know a place and we should go there. That was all. However, he offered to pay but I declined. I don’t really know what our relationship is and he doesn’t clarify it as well. But then, he asked me if we could hold hands next time, over text lol. He’s really shy and new to this kind of stuff as well. But I’ve only seen him twice and prefer to take things slowly. So I said no and he gave an excuse for it. Nothing has been clarified. He stopped texting me now and it’s been a day. I don’t know if I should text him or not, just to see how’s he doing. I don’t really know if I like him or just like the attention. I’ve never dated anyone and still new to this stuff. What should I do? I don’t want to lead him on and I’m not sure if he actually like me or not.
TLDR: Do I really like him? Should I text him?

If you aren’t physically attracted to him at all and aren’t really like looking forward to his texts or to hanging out with him I would say you don’t like him in a romantic way…but if thinking of him in a relationship with someone else makes you jealous and feel bad that might be a good indicator that you would like to date him, just let him know you want to take things slowly and careful.
Answering your first question answers the second, and only you can answer your first question.
If you do decide you like him, text him back, because you just gave him a clear sign that you don’t want to move forward with a relationship.
