Why do I feel like time freezes when he looks at me? Is it mutual?

Anonymous
Anytime I interact with my crush at work, I get this feeling that he is attracted to me as well but it’s hard to decipher exactly what his behavior is telling me bc he’s in a higher position than me. He’s a couple years younger.
He acts very nervous & fidgety around me sometimes and other times he and I do some friendly banter, other times he’s very sweet and talks to me in a gentle voice, I feel very intense sexual tension when we’re alone in a room.
Yet Other times he acts very aloof and indifferent.
I’ve seen him stare at me, smile from across the room, etc but I wasn’t sure if it was all in my head.
Well there have been a few times I ask him to get me something from his desk and when he hands it to me, he just stares at my face with a lingering look, buti don’t stare back bc I’m trying to maintain my professionalism and he holds on to whatever he’s passing to me until I literally snatch it from him.
it feels like time freezes and snow motion but I can’t tell if this is all my head or one sided on my part.

i have had many moments where it feels this way, especially one time I walked into the room that he was in, he was standing directly on the other side of the room and he was staring at me intensely while I was walking in, it felt like slow motion and blurry background even though I didn’t really look back at him because I got nervous.

He watches my body movements/hand movements, etc.
seems to linger in my workspace anytime I’m alone and I feel this incredible tension..

any way to find out if this is mutual or all in my head?
