How can a guy like some one so easily?

We all gotta like something-
It might be that he finds you attractive and has made up (whatever) about you based on his short life thus far and his perception. Ask him why he likes you and he will probably say he finds you pretty, nice, smart, and fun. Even without spending time with you this is what he has made up about you. Or he is simply a stalker and you should be armed-That was a joke. ASK him what it is about you and be honest with your friend about the whole and complete deal. Or not-your choice. Good luck and if guys seems goofy- it is because we are.

One More Thing
Some of us fall "in-Love" VERY quickly and it is mostly due to the fact that we are missing something in our lives that would help to fill that longing for anothers affection etc.

The heart wants what the heart wants. Guys always point out girls they find appealing (meaning that they only see these girls physically, so they say "hot").

But when they are attracted to a girl (meaning they like her physically and intelectually), they pretty much figure it out immediately.

They see you physically, and that gets decided, but as soon as they hear you putting words together, and again it doesn't take much, it clicks together. Each guy has a different threshold regarding this, but it's a natural reaction, it's not manufactured.

I believe this guy is genuine, but there is always the chance that he's not. That's where you come into play. You have intuition, you have to decide for yourself what is going on.

Well, maybe he thinks you are hot. He probably finds you more appealing then your cousin. Did you guys get along pretty well during the first meet? Because if you did, then he just felt some sort of connection and figured that he likes you. I don't think he's desperate, just into you. However, you can go ahead and ask him about it. I am not sure if that's what you feel alright in doing but it will get you a straight forward answer.
