What should I do about this guy I have a crush on?
Hey! So I started the fall semester a few weeks ago, and I found out on my first day that I have a class with this guy I know. We'd had a class together before a few years ago and remembered each other. Since then, we've casually talked to each other before class and worked on labs and other projects together. Although I still don't know much about him, I've noticed how genuinely funny and kind he is to me and others in our class. And so I've developed a bit of a crush on him.
But I'm not sure if I should do anything about this crush. Personally, I'm leaning more towards not doing anything yet because there's still so much I don't know about him and I want to get to know him more. At the same time, I think he might also be interested in me and it might be worth a shot just asking him on a date.
Just for context, here's why I think he might be interested in me too: He always starts conversations with me and is always asking questions or randomly saying something to me (he'll ask how I'm doing, what I've been up to, how's my family, etc). He's been sitting in the row in front of me since the semester began, and I've caught him glancing back at me multiple times each lecture. During one of the labs we were working on, each of us needed to upload pictures of our group's lab work and instead of letting me take pictures of the work he did with my phone, he took the pictures and asked for my number so he could send them to me. Then he made a joke, something about spreading my number around and telling people to call it for a good time, and thinking back on it now, it seems like he was flirting or teasing me. He also is always close by, like I said he sits in the row in front of me during lectures, sits across from me when we work on labs (even though there's another person in our group he could easily sit across from), and usually leans in when he talks to me. There was also one time after class he was lingering around me for a minute before leaving, which was pretty strange. It seemed like he was waiting for me or wanted to say something, but I'm not sure.
I know I'm probably just overthinking this because I tend to overthink everything. In any case, what do you think? Could he be interested in me too? Should I just wait and see where things go or take a chance on things now?
