Say I think we have great chemistry, but in reality I'm just boosting his ego.We have been flirting a lot and we've known each other for quite a few years. The main reason I'm asking is because he's an older man (around 50) and he's about twice my age and I hear guys at that age that are friends with a woman my age just use her to boost his ego and isn't really looking for a relationship. I hope I'm wrong that's why I'm wondering if there are any warning signs to look out for.

 I'd ask him if he's looking for a relationship, or just dating!
The ego boost thing goes both ways. An older man is obviously more experienced in how to treat a woman, etc... Some women enjoy the attention and all the other things that they don't get from the younger guys,but just want to explore things, and be spoiled and pampered while they're at it.
I've dated a few girls your age, and while I'm looking for quality relationship, they're looking to just date.
So,, the best thing to do is ask.

Well I would see what he does. If he was interested, I would think he would initiate something. In this situation I don't see any possible warning signs to help you in this. How long has the flirting been going on would answer that for you. Best of luck to you.
