I don't actually think they were romantically involved. I think it fits better with the theme of the album is the poor guy is just lonely and pulls every little thing he sees from the girl out of proportion. "She remembers my name" means "that's it. It's official. She loves me. From here on we're just gonna take it slow. I'm gonna love her like no man has ever loved a woman before."
In reality though, she's probably just being nice, and when he starts to realise that maybe he was mistaken, he's heart-broken. She's just living her life as she normally would, but being the guy so desperately in love, he yet again pulls it out of proportion and thinks she's doing it deliberately, I guess because he still thinks she might love him.
Finally, he lets loose about his feelings, and everything he's said up to that point. Of course, this is a mistake, because it's not only a complete shock to her that he's feeling this way, but most likely very weird for her because she's never seen or felt the things he's mentioning.
"But you remembered my name, and you gave me signals! I could tell you were looking for love. Don't you know I'm Mr Right for you?"
Aaaaaaand the guy gets ditched and is left feeling rather sorrowful about himself. This song is then followed by Music To Walk Home By, which is about him dreaming about the one he loves, and then Why Won't They Talk To Me, which is rather self-explanatory. I think it's much better in keeping with the theme of loneliness in the album if the two people never actually got together and have hanky-panky, as some people are suggesting, but simply had a lovely relationship in his head.
