How would you feel if you were repeatedly kissed on a first date?

I met this guy at a local show, we exchanged numbers and decided to go out for coffee. Before meeting up I warned him about my self-esteem issues, and how it would more than likely scare him away. I wasn’t nervous (which I suppose is a good thing) because I didn’t see it as a date, but as we were walking he repeatedly kissed me on the cheek and forehead telling me, “This is an indicator that I think you’re absolutely a cutie, so don’t worry” I then became nervous-I didn’t expect him to just do that out of nowhere. By him making that statement I automatically thought it was out of pity because he probably felt as if I needed some sort of a “boost” He also held my hand and kept placing his arm around my hips. I don’t know what to make of this, could it be that he just wants to jump in bed already? Or am I really like the ugly girl in the corner who needs to be petted every once in awhile?
