Guys, A question for the men - why would you avoid eye contact with your crush?

Now im not for one minute trying to say that my crush likes me back, but i find his behaviour odd.

We only see each other at break times and when id look at him, he would be gazing at me and holding his gaze. Then he would smile at me and id reciprocate. I’d always be the first one to look away.

Recently, when we made eye contact and smiled at each other I said hi to him (for the first time) and he smiled even more. We smiled at each other again the week after, but since then, he has been avoiding eye contact.

When we are in close proximity, he will turn his head away from me and I find it a little awkward. He recently said hi again but he said it quietly and scurried off
