Hi Laura,
I am going to go the other way on this one. If you like him and he has his life together, you should consider going for it. I mean you took a chance by putting yourself out there to find love. He is taking a huge chance by expressing that you swept him off his feet. He has a lot of courage and maybe is just a die hard romantic.
You could just be straight up with him. It would be a good indicator of his character to hear some true feelings about moving a little quick instead of just running to the hills.
From my story, I met my wife in person on a Monday and stayed with her until Friday that week. 9 days later she asked me to be her BF. 12 days later she proposed. We were married within 3 months. Now we have a child together and a wonderful marriage going on 5 years. I am glad we threw out some of the norms and took big chances.
Don't fault a guy for being a big romantic with courage. I mean didn't you want to sweep him off his feet? It worked! Just go for it.
