Search Results: why does he push me away

I like this guy who is a Sophomore in the grade above me. This is a great guy, he's won some big awards before for being such a good person. I know his whole family (sister, parents, aunt, cousins, etc.) and they all love me, I actually work at the same place as some them. We only briefly met 3 times before this school year at some summer parties thrown by a friend of ours. When school started, we didn't speak, but then one day he approached me and had a nice long conversation with me. Now we always smile and wave at each other in the halls, I walked him to his next class the other day, and basically catch up to him anytime I can in the hall just to have a quick 30 second conversation with him. We've been casually speaking daily. Last week, I had to go to calling hours/a wake for his Grandma who just passed away unexpectedly, and he gave me a huge smile when he saw me and we hugged for a long time. So he is going through a hard time at the moment. Today, I was at my locker and I saw him coming down the hall and just continued getting my things for next class. Suddenly, he gets pushed into me by one of his friends and he's smiling/laughing and says "Sorry" and keeps walking (I said sorry too I don't know why lol). But this confused me, as usually when kids get shoved into each other, it means one likes the other. But it could also not mean anything, maybe his friend was just being mean and pushing him around and it was a coincidence that he happened to get shoved into me. I just don't know, I think it may have meant something more, and if so, is it because he likes me or because I like him? Both? I just know that the guy I like 100% is not a jerk so even if he did know I liked him, he wouldn't tell all his friends and be mean about it. So the only way his friends would've found out I like him is if someone else told them, and I've only told a few close friends and half of them don't even go to the High School. So does he like me too? And what did the pushing thing mean?

Okay, so here's the deal. I'm fourteen and a freshman in highschool and this boy (I'll call him C) sits infront of me in Economics. He's fifteen and a sophmore in highschool. We have Economics every other day, so I only see him every other day. The first day of school we talked a lot and I could'nt help but notice him staring at me a lot when he didn't think I was looking. I would look at him and he'd smile a little and look away and look back to whatevr he was doing. So then class ends and he walked me to my next class, and Im not sure if it was out of his way or not. So every class he has been staring at me all the time when he thinks I don't notice. And last class we were working on a google doc together and i said "C is an idiot" he saw it and said oh is he then wrote "C looks good" an I said "Yes he does." and he was like "OOOh oh i see ooh." and smiled and laughed. Then today, in class we were all joking around and laughing and the teacher made him put his chromebook screen down and I was like "Wow I actually get to see your face when it's not blocked by a computer screen" and he says "why would you wanna see my face?" and I said "It's not that bad" and laughed. And he said oooh ohhhohh. (SOrry this is so long) anyway then after class was over he walked me to my class again and we were joking in the hallway and i was like "go away" and playfully pushed him and he was like "ok i'll just go in this classroom" and then he goes "damn its locked. do you have the key?" and I said Yea an he goes can you give it to me? and I said no and then he's like "know what i have the key for?" and I was like what and he motions up and down his body and goes "I have the key to all this" and i told him good swallow the key or throw it away. he laughed and playfully pushed me. Today in class aswell as in the hallway it seemed like he was using any excuse to touch me (NOT INAPROPRIATLY) so here's the question, does any of this count as a good response to my light flirting or does any o
