I think the man I've fallen for is a player

There’s this guy I really like and we flirt quite a bit but my friend (who knows him quite well) has warned me about him. She says he’s really into playing the field and has read a book called The Game which apparently tells you how to pick up women. From my minimal research I think he seems to have used a few tricks from this book on me. Thing is, I really like him and I want to get to know him better but I don’t want to get caught up in his game playing. How do I get closer to him?
