We went to this class together with others. We are part of a program and have been for months. I could see him always checking me out and getting nervous when talking to me. I could tell it was a crush but he was also not doing anything about it. He would get tongue tied often. Often expresses surprise at seeing me as if he didn't just see me there. The other way we went to this workout together with the rest of the program and he was being his social self with everyone but didn't come close to me. When I ended up getting close to keep a normal flow of conversation, he moved away. Then he was behind me. I made a quick comment and went about my way because he doesn't seem talkative to me around other people. One person in my program even started to get suspicious about our chemistry even though nothing happened. He just gets tongue tied and nervous when around me. Anyway, we are at this workout and when I am done, I am using a towel and I look up and he's staring - though he just earlier showed he wasn't going to chat too much and would rather hang with others. Then, I get back to the class and when it finishes, I am a bit pumped and smiling at the coach and I look in his direction and he's staring open mouthed.

He does the occasional breaking of the touch barrier with high fives and fist bumps and he did the same that evening along with others, but he does nothing beyond staring. He doesn't ask about me. He seems almost afraid. When I ask him or tell him something about me, he's all into it. Does this guy actually like me? Anyone been in his shoes? What is he thinking? The program just ended and I may never see him again. I am wondering if I should add him on social media to get in touch or if he's not worth the effort. The way he's been going, with sweet words and staring, I am rather hoping he gets in touch but I can't seem to rely on it given his nervousness. I don't want to pursue if he's not really into me.

I am pretty sure he has a crush, I don't know if his feelings run deep enough to pursue things with me or if he just likes the look of me. He had moments of clarity when he went all out to make me feel special, says I am special and I can bother him anytime I want, etc.
