General thoughts?

This guy I contacted l know he was hurt before but lm not sure of his interest. In person he smiles at me and is near me and looks at me. But over text He doesn’t text unless l text him first. His replies are not dry, very expressive with emojis. Im not sure if l should continue talking as it’s mainly me leading the conversation he doesn't ask much about me but just replies to me. He just asked once what l do for work out of the whole conversation.
Is he interested or just being nice replying?
