met him the very first time today after 1.9 yrs

so he said he has moved on but still kept on with the hot and cold signs.
So i was in his town and since we never met in person before(we were in a LDR) so we decided to meet
so he came to the hotel i stayed in
mom dad and i were waiting
so he reached in a cab
he got down from the cab
went to them,said hi to mom and shook hands with dad.Then we got on the cab and shook hands.
He used to always tell me that he wanted to go to barista with his special one and when we were in a relationship,he would tell me how much he wants to take me there.
So to my huge surprise he took me to barista.i asked him "are you sure about this?" he said "why wont i be? Its no big deal".He said i look much younger than my age and smilingly said i look like a baby and we giggled.He ordered a grand hot chocolate for me and a mocha coffee for himself and we kept talking about random things. He handed me his phone and asked me to go through his family photos.Then we went to dominos He ordered a huge size chicken dominator,lava cake and sprite. He was already full so he didnt eat much and asked me to pack it for me and it was already 10 pm so we had to leave too
i fed him the 1st bite of the cake with my hand,He ate it but he didnt reciprocate.Then we got out
i told him we should take some selfies.None of them came good since it was dark
Then we got on the cab and we got back to the hotel.He again got down and said bye to mom
and he drove back.Then he later texted saying "so it was nice to meet you " and i replied the same.

how does it sound like?
He said he has moved on but given the occasional hot and cold signs,i thought that maybe he just buried his feelings deep down .I thought that maybe once he sees me then those feelings would resurface.
I dont know if i was being too irrational with my hopes that maybe he'll fall in love with me all over again once we spend few hours together since we have never met before.
He did take me by a huge surprise by taking me to Barista.We both knew how much it meant to him because he would constantly say "i want to go there with my special one". So i wasnt expecting him to take me there but he did although he tried playing it cool.
I tried being affectionate by feeding him the 1st bite of the cake,poked him each time he made silly remarks and pulled his arms when he was walking almost in the middle of the road but he didnt reciprocate by trying to touch me or whatever. Also,the fact that he casually handed over his phone to me himself and asked me to check out his family pics surprised me because i dont think i could do that with someone unless i really love that person and feel close to that person and i have heard Cancerians are private people. But he played it cool throughout.
What are your opinions on this? Is there absolutely any scope for reconciliation? Do things look good or is it just a meet? Sometimes i feel he may not have made any effort to come meet me had he really moved on but he did meet up even though it was really late at night and he had to travel back 2 hrs for home.
