What is up with this guy? I'm receiving conflicting signals?

Some of you may remember my shy guy question . I applied some of the suggestions that week…and he smiled without flushing for once. But during these last two weeks he has become distant – more distant than the South Pole.

I was ready to count my losses and move on. But today he reopened the proverbial can of worms. It all started in this morning’s class. You see, I sit in the second row from the front, right behind him. Everyone was assembled and the class had officially begun, the professor having already launched into his lecture. That’s when he turned around in his seat a 180 degrees with a strawberry red face. He asked me why I was so tired yesterday. Of course every eye in the classroom went to us…followed by background giggles.

At lunch break, I went by him as I headed for the door. He was chatting with another guy and suddenly switched the subject to marriage when I passed.

At the end of the day, I was departing, and he was going to basketball practice. He jerked to a halt and attempts casual chat with me, the typical “how were you today” questions. He stuttered through it and I was the one who finally ended it and said good bye (much to his relief).

Summary: What’s going on here? He ignores me for two weeks and than takes great pain to socialize with me. Is he interested or just trying to apologize in a strange way? I’m a bit belittled here.
