Should I reach out to him or do you feel it’s awkward and not appropriate?

Yesterday my mom was in town and we went out to a nice restaurant and our waiter was a nice guy who looks like he’s a tad younger than me but we are in our 20s.. he was very nice and he was a nice looking guy.

He was attentive and he told us some of his favorite things on the menu. He did a good job and maybe in the back of my mind I thought he was cute and maybe said it but didn’t really think anything of it.. just a guy doing his job..

He did make eye contact with me even when just talking to my mom.. He did ask questions and asked how I got here since I’m not from this state.. I told him I was an art teacher and I told him how I stopped teaching in December to pursue something else and he tells me he understands completely and he just changed his major in college… did a 180 from film media to production…

I could tell my mom was up to something.. but the conversation was nice and he said he could give us recommendations for things to do and he tried to see if there were any free art tickets to go to the art museum.

My mom embarrassed me and told him I need to meet people and hang out and she ask him for his number and she says “maybe you have friends you can hook her up with “

It’s awkward for me and I tell him that he doesn’t have to do that or feel obligated to and i apologized… it was kind of a pause maybe because it’s awkward but he does say sure and he writes his number down

But I don’t want to reach out because I don’t know if he really wanted to or felt obligated

Obviously it isn't right to cheat but that's what I did long ago and would do it again if I had to. I had already prepared and practiced for the exam with a tutor during summer school. I took all that time, all that month of preparation and really thought I was improving. All for nothing when I retook the state exam.

I had an overall good GPA, completed my community hours and there was nothing else lacking. Everything was good except that one standardized reading exam (many other students were failing it too) I was sick of failing. I had enough and cheated from another girl's (someone that was retaking the exam too but I felt like she knew the answers) scantron sheet. I passed on the 2nd retake (3rd time) in my junior year of HS and I never heard from that exam ever again.

I was desperate I guess. Honestly would you do what I did if you've tried everything, even got tutored and nothing works except cheating? To me, this seems like an exception and a good example of ''in love and war, everything is fair''. I wouldn't have gotten my HS diploma (never been able to even go to college, finish my major, etc) without passing that one exam.
