I think I would pick a city that is roughly half-way between his location and yours, look for a nice hotel in that city, and check what the rates are for a weekend.

Then message him and invite him to meet you there for a weekend.

Who knows, maybe he will come visit. Or maybe he has intentions to move.
He lived in the same state as me for college and moved a few states over after. He actually did mention in conversation how he wants to move back but with inflation he isn’t too sure when that would happen

They live in different states. How easy can it be to score if you're living in different states? But THAT said OP, are you really interested in trying to start something with someone who lives so far away?

That would be quite a leap to go from flirty Insta DMs to "hey, let's meet up and share a hotel room for a weekend". I feel like there should be some intermediate steps first.

So he does want to move closer to you, but he lacks motivation.

He is asking if you would be willing to date him if he did move closer.

It's a numbers game. He's probably playing a dozen chat buddies at once, not betting on any particular one panning out but just hoping one or two of them does.

I doubt he's looking for a "relationship". It doesn't sound to me like they ever were really friends so much as acquaintances who had common friends. Did they ever have a date? Or even spend an evening together as friends, just the two of them?

I’ve never tried it so I wouldn’t be against it

Haha not move in with me. The move wouldn’t be for me either it was just mentioned in conversation. I didn’t think much of it

We didn’t have a date but would we need to have a date in the past in order to have interest in one another now? People fall for people they meet online everyday who they don’t have any connection or mutual friends with let alone seen one another in person prior to wanting to date another
