Unfortunately there are no easy answers to a lot of these questions. Personally, I'm not one to take the word of others at face value. He treats you nice and you enjoy his attention, why worry so much about what others have said about him? You're the one that's dealing with him now, not anyone else.
Secondly, you have to decide what you're willing to sacrifice to make a long distance relationship work. If you feel that there wouldn't be enough contact, then there's no point in pursuing it. On the other hand, if you feel you can work and you want to invest the time and effort into it, part of the discussion will have to be about what will need to be done. We can't tell you what to expect, every relationship is different. You can set desires and goals with each other and meet them, and then you'll have defined your own expectations.
Lastly, if you're afraid that you're just going to be a conquest, then don't have sex. Be clear about it right from the beginning: no sex. Then you don't have to worry about being just a feat to be accomplished and it will serve as a catalyst for his true desires. If he sticks around then he's genuine, if not, then he never was and you've saved yourself and not let yourself be fooled. You can have a completely full relationship without having sex.
