A guy sent me a selfie of himself - what does it mean?

Anonymous
I met this guy from tinder few weeks back, haven't met him before but really friendly. We haven't talked much, but we texted back and forth several times, friends on Facebook (with an ongoing 'poke' war between each other) - we talked about to finally meet each other after the Christmas holidays. A few days ago, (after not texting each other for a while) he randomly sent me a picture of himself (a selfie of himself being cute and all - not nude). I sent him back a similar selfie of myself in attempt to be "cute" in the attempt to play along, but only got a smile as a reply. Maybe I am overthinking this, but I'm really wondering what does this mean? I know this is just a way of flirting but, should I start "steering" the "relationship" somewhere, somehow? How do you text a guy without giving the impression of being desperate? I have to be honest, I am quite curious about where this could go, since he seems to be a really nice guy. Thoughts and advice are greatly appreciated.
