"noble" means more or less the same as in English. Implying you not only have the looks, but you also have the character qualities he likes. "mamacita" is not disrespectful. A little familiar but not disrespectful. "novia" means "girlfriend". It also means "bride" depending on the context, but in this case it obviously means girl friend. "Would you like to go dancing with me?" I suggest, if you like him, you say "Claro que sí" (after he asks you to go dancing). No big commitment involved there. If he bursts out laughing, just laugh with him. If his face lights up, and he says he'll meet you at such an hour, such a day, then you've got a date, and you know there is a certain element of seriousness. EDIT: He might be a great guy. But since he is from another country, it would be wise to go very slowly. Get to know him bit by bit, taking your time between each level of relationship. Why? 1. Different cultures - level of understanding is different. 2. Some people can turn on the charm hoping for a green card, or permanent immigration status. (he might already have it though). 3. He might come from a background that considers women are for men's amusement, that they shouldn't use their brains too much. I say he MIGHT, but that is not necessarily the case.

It may mean:
He wants...
She wants...
It wants...
You (formal form, Usted) want
Él quiere ir a la casa de su amigo.
He wants to go to his friend's house.
No sé qué quiere usted.
I do not know what do you want (formal)
It also can mean:
He loves
She loves
It loves
or formal form of "you love"
Ella dice que quiere mucho a su mama.
She says she loves her mom very much.
¿Usted quiere a sus hijos?
Do you love your children? (formal)
Amar and Querer are not the same. Amar is stronger.

Means love if you are talking about a feeling toward a person or pet. Also means want (I want, he wants, she wants, we want, it wants, they want, which means "el quiere, ella quiere, nosotros queremos, ellos quieren") when you use it like "I want that car" which means "El quiere ese carro/auto" or "El quiere ese libro" which means He wants that book. Hope this help.

It means "want" but depends on how is it used... It can also mean LOVE but with a lesser impact, because the real meaning of I Love you is TE AMO
