Casually long distance

How do you start re-dating someone you were never all that serious with, but now from afar? He lives two hours away from me, I live two hours away from him, he visited me twice in two weeks, I'm going to visit him in a few days, but how does this work? Usually long distance starts when you already feel pretty comfortable, right? We're literally still getting to know each other, unsure of what the other likes, not sure how to act, only having shared a few meals together. We text message. That is our main form of communication.

Not to say I'm not perfectly content with how it's gone thus far. Not to overanalyze it. Not to give it a name when maybe, right this second, it doesn't need a name. I just don't want to get in over my head, become concernedly attached to someone who doesn't live in the same city, stuck in the past because maybe he is Chicago to me too, I didn't choose him two years ago and maybe it was for a reason.

What can this really be? Does it have any chance? How can you get to know someone when you're also asking to borrow his toothpaste?
