Does this white guy like me?

Alright, so I am a black girl. I'm not ghetto, but I also am not white washed. I just act like a normal teen aged girl. There's this white guy who goes to my school and he's always touching my hair. Also, he will just randomly poke me and hug me. He also compliments my hair when I change it up, and tell me I'm pretty. Is he just being nice or does he like me? I think he's pretty attractive. But, I didn't think white guys really like black girls like that. What do you guys think? this may seem like a no brainer to you guys, but I honestly can't tell. Interracial dating just isn't common at my school.
