What does this guy friend mean when he called me special?

[Anonymous]

I was texting with this guy friend and he told me that I am special and that I proved it a lot to him since we met. What does he want to say by this and what does it mean?

It's as straight forward as it gets, so what don't you understand?

Pretty self explanatory.

I bet he wants to me more than just friends.
