So, I have a crush. I really like him and I've never liked anyone more. My friend told him the other day that I like him he didn't really say anything. I'm hoping that we might start taking this year but he's really shy (so am i). I hope I didn't scare him off or anything like that. We have only talked once or twice in the last few years.

So my questions are:
1) how should I start taking to him?
2) Am I being too pushy?
3) how do I know if he likes me back?

Thank you to anyone who answers!!
