What about long-distance "dating" ?

Here's the deal : I currently live in southern France where I study, but i'm from Geneva, switzerland (a 280 miles distance).

Everytime I go back, i hang out with my childhood friends of course, and their friends from college. That's how i met this wonderful guy. The first time I saw him 6 months ago, i instantly liked him. By the second time, we were flirting.

We have this obvious chemistry, he always makes me laugh and finds ways to compliment me. I saw him about 5 more times (i can go back usually a weekend a month), including my surprise birthday party which he helped planned and bought me a sweet gift.

In a week i'm going back 10 days for the holidays, and i am so dying to kiss him !! but the problem is that technically i don't know him that much, and i'm not sure what it could lead to.
Has anyone ever started long-distance "dating" with someone they were still getting to know? He's really not the player kind, and from what my friends told me, i know he's looking for a serious relationship.
What do you think about my situation ?
