I've liked him since freshman year, but not a lot so I didn't even notice he was in my class! I figured out he was in my classes because he would always stare at me. When I catch him staring at me, he either smiles or turns away really fast. One time I caught him staring at me and he started to blush really bad and he looked down. Then another time I was walking to my class and he was right next to me and he looked at me and smiled and then looked down and walked away really fast. Then another time I was walking to my 3rd block and I was walking next to him and I went to talk to my friend and she was behind me so I turned to my right he was looking at me. So do you guys thinks he likes me? I think he thinks I'm like cute, but I don't think he likes me. :/ Reply to this Question

 You give us too little to work on :). Sure, if he keeps staring at you, he must like what he sees. So, from this point of view, he "likes " you.
But, you want to know if he really likes as in ..what? Having feelings for you ? Wanting to be your bf ?...
Then, maybe not. He might find you cute , and also personable,- but not have in mind to date you. He may already have a girlfriend. He may feel that he is too busy or too young for dating. So, maybe he stares because you are good to look at -or stares just because.
Then again, he MIGHT like you in "that" way and just be too shy or too unexperienced to make his move. If he was just a little older, I'd say he's not interested, even a shy guy can normally come up with a simple " Hi " or a " Can I check your notes ? "
But , at 16, we don't know if he is uninterested or just plain clueless. So, you need to help him out a bit. You need to have an encouraging body language, you need to smile ( nicely, not in a " gotcha " way ) when you see him staring at you. You need to say " Hi " first , or go up to him with some excuse, may I borrow this or that...., and then strike up a conversation.
Then, you'll take it from there. You signal your interest , you give him an opening... if he seizes tha chance , fine, if he does not , he is either not interested or... too passive for you to bother with him anyway.
In short, if you are interested, you have to give him the initial hint, and watch the developments. Normally I probably would not advise that, why saving men from doing their legwork :),... but, at 16, poor kid. Maybe he needs a nudge in the right direction.
