Does he like me, and is he worth it?

wow, you're slow.......it seems that you need to realize that a "friend" can also become your partner. I mean, who gets into a serious relationship with a complete stranger??? It has to be someone you know and more than likely, a friend. so I would advise you to go with the flow and get with him because if you wait too long you'll see him "snuggle" up with YOUR best friend!!!
