~LONG READ~: Would you feel awkward if you were me? How should I act?

He could be just super friendly. I'd say let things go the way they are right now, get to know him more, find out if you're interested in him too as more than just a friend. And if you are, flirt with him, make him feel loved the way he's making you feel loved. ;) My suggestion to you is attempt to get to know people as much as possible before you start thinking about boyfriends.
