<human>: So, me and this guy have known each other years, however, we weren't always that close and sort of lost contact whilst we were both away at college.

So now we have both moved back to our hometowns where I learnt from a friend that he used to really like me, before we both went to college. We had always hungout when their were other friends present (he's never brought a +one girl with him and never from what i'm aware of had a girlfriend). 

Recently he asked me out for a drink, which i really enjoyed his company for.

So whilst that indicates he is interested, since we've hung out alone quite a few times now as he took me to a gig, more drinks, etc. 
HOWEVER, He gives me mixed signals since he's never made a move, kissing wise etc.

He seems a bit useless at text messaging as well, but he's always been that way from what I remember! there isn't much flirting from what I would expect from someone who is interested in me romantically either! :(

Up until this point I thought he was really into me, but his lack of texts / flirting / no indication of making a move makes me think he just see's me as a friend.

To make it even more confusing, he invited me carol singing on christmas eve, but then his messages just sounded like it was event in his village which he was telling me about but wasn't actually attending himself!

But then, on new years eve he asked me what I had planned, but i'd already made plans with other friends! 

I am finding the situation really confusing and him difficult to read!

Is he interested in me romantically or does he just want someone to chill /  hangout with!

Condense the text into a few key points
<bot>: Mixed signals from him [22/M] to [22/F], hasn't made a move but is he just shy, is he interested in me romantically?
