Do his actions mean something more?
In my school, there's this guy who I used to have classes with two years ago. During that time, we only really communicated when it was about school. The following year, we weren't in the same class anymore so the only time we really saw each other was in the hallway considering his room is adjacent to mine. I never really bothered much because I wasn't really thinking of him in any other way.
One day he sent me a message on facebook telling me I should smile more often and that I looked better smiling. He kept on telling me that through PM at random times and smile at him whenever we saw each other. Here I sorta developed a bigger interest in him, but I was probably too busy with school to really give much thought about it. Later on in the same year, he would often look in my classroom and sneak a smile and lock eyes for a while with me whenever he passed by.
Fast forward to summer this year, he sent me a message saying that I needed to rest for the summer. It was a kind thing to say really because even I thought I looked like a walking zombie, lol. But anyway, after that he told me that he believed that I could be "number 1" as if saying that he had no doubt I could graduate the valedictorian of our batch. I never expected such a comment and told him that I'd try knowing that such a thing was difficult even for me to imagine. He then told me that he'd help me considering he was really good with Math. I thanked him and eventually we let the conversation die, though inside, I felt really surprised.
Finally school had come again and now I barely see him at all since his room is quite far from mine, and it really seemed like it didn't matter much to him so I decided to just let it go and forget. It was working pretty well too until not long ago when I had to drop by his room to speak to someone who was there. I was with a friend and at the time I didn't really think much about him thinking that the things I've observed in the past were just my imagination. But I saw him and he saw me. He pretended to be looking for me or something since the friend I was with was pretty tall so I was sorta hidden, and as soon as he caught my eye he did a cute wave and grinned. I was surprised at his action seeing as he was with some friends and all, but at the same time I smiled.
That same day I went to his room again looking for that same person with the same friend. My friend never seemed to really take notice of what he was doing during the two times we stopped by, but I saw it crystal clear. Anyway, I saw him, but this time he was having some sort of discussion with a group, but as he saw me he diverted his attention to me and smiled with a little nod acknowledging me then continued with what he was doing previously as my friend and I left not finding the person we were looking for.. I don't even think he paid much attention to the friend I had been tagging along with.
I wish I understood what these signals mean. He's known to be a pretty nice person, so I don't know if I'm just imagining the special attention I'm getting or if he actually goes out of his way to do some small but kinda sweet things. Is he just being nice or something? I'm sorry for the long narration, but opinions are highly appreciated. :)
