<human>: Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?

I've had a friend for nearly ten years now who has always had romantic chemistry with me. Timing has never been in our favor, but our friendship has weathered the storms. We recently, both single, started hanging out again. (We sometimes wouldn't talk for a few months, normal for us.)

The tricky part is that I now have a daughter, which is wonderful. However he has mentioned he would have a hard time dating someone with a kid, and fuck buddy is about as far as he would go in that situation.

But now that we are hanging out again he has mentioned more than once that he wants to meet my daughter but I'm also getting some of those romance vibes that we have waltzed around with for nearly a decade. 

He knows I'm not interested in the whole FWB situation. So I really want some clarity but I fear sounding like I'm pushing a relationship or one of those crazy ladies who push their kids onto men too early. Because I'm ok staying friends and prefer to push off him being around my kid if he wants to date. I'm just torturing myself about not knowing his intentions.
<bot>: How to ask a guy early on about his intentions without sounding like I'm taking everything too seriously and have our lives planned out together with a shrine in my closet?
