It takes about four drinks to make a man lose his
mind; about four kisses to make a woman lose hers?
Albeit it has been mentioned, to me, apart from being a potential
player, it is also equally possible for a man like him to be living
in a long 'deceased' relationship, seeking for someone else to fill
up his emotional void to restore himself.
If you dislike mind games, then avoid putting yourself as a
candidate into such a situation - which goes to say that you don't
have to understand his mindset to decipher his behavior.
Don't view this matter too complicated - if you are uncomfortable,
nothing will make you feel good in that awkward presence. You must
understand that being kissed and showered with SMS attention, which
left you feeling paradoxically 'good', does not mean that you might
have an interest in him. That surge of feeling could have spiraled
from your empty inner self, which give false emotional sense.
His appearance might actually be a signal,
spiritually/subconsciously telling you about your vulnerability you
have yet to be 'patched'?
Be mindful of yourself. 
Cheers
