I'm curious I just started using instant message and everything But what does it mean when a guy calls you sweety and signs off with a ;***************

Is that kinda a kiss of death in the I like you as more than friends area? Or would you say (I read this online) That it's a fake kiss like haha. Yes I am technologically challenged and tend to over analyze. But girls, guys what do you think?

I read it as a kiss.

What it means probably depends on your relationship with whoever it is.
