Does he like me if he acted cold towards me thinking I rejected him?

There's guy I've seen often over a year or so bus driver. There's times I don't see him for a while. Always felt there was some kind of attraction from our energy making a lot of eye contact more than usual. I always say Hi or thanks acting more interactive and he says hi morning or hi looking happy to see me. His voice always softer with me. He doesn't say as much to anyone else. It was raining I was getting off the bus he was like careful bye while watching me walk down the stairs he doesn't usually say that I thought it was cause it was raining. The next time it wasn't raining said thank you more smiley instead of thanks after he still said bye bye careful. He was starting to say more to me. The other day getting off he didn't say anything to anyone only me he said you welcome smiling I had eye lashes done at the time he seemed to notice. It was some time before I saw him again about 3 months. There were two buses I glanced in and I didn't look properly , walked off to one in front after I looked back at the other bus I noticed it was him right before getting on the other bus. Started looking at him he was looking my direction , took out phone to look busy avoiding eye contact felt awkward. It looks bad I looked at hm walked off rejected him. The next time I saw him he didn't acknowledge me avoided looking me cold vibe. He's never acted that way to me. I realised maybe it was because of last time. I've made extra effort to show him I like him with my actions paying him more attention , giving him good eye contact smiling etc. The last couple of days had him to and from work he's changed back to his usual way with me. He did a seat check and he came stand close to while looking at the back. We're in that small talk stage saying a little more each time. How can I get to know him more I keep getting shy?
