helpp!
i really like this guy. so lately i've been making more eye contact, and it TOTALLY seems like he's talking to me more! like we've never really talked before, but then one day i was like, "screw this i gotta talk to him" so i just like asked stupid things like can i borrow your pencil or do we have any homework? & it seems like now he's talking to me more. he seems to be making more eye contact. i think he knows that i like him cause like today, i was talking to my teacher about something, and a few other kids were lining up to talk to her and i was just glancing over each of their faces and i stopped at him and like made eye contact and then i quickly turned away. was that a flirt do-do or no-no?! cause i didnt wanna seem NERVOUS but i didn't wanna come on him like white on rice.. like stalking him all of a sudden. what should i do?! should i give it a rest tomorrow or continue what i'm doingg? thanks in advance! sorry it's so long!

What you're seeing could indeed be signs, but it's all so subtle that it's hard to tell. In any event, I think it's definitely time to turn up the flirting knob a bit and see how he responds.
What you really need here is an opportunity to actually engage him in real conversation, not just sound bytes about borrowing school supplies or commentary about your assignments. Finding that opening can be difficult, however. The best thing to do, if you can, is to somehow meet him in less familiar surroundings.
Right now, I assume you see each other only in school. Is there some activity he's involved in that you could somehow be a part of? The easiest thing is if he plays on a sports team - you can just start going to his games. If you overhear him saying that he's meeting friends at a local mall or Taco Bell or something, see if you can manage to be there too. Remember, stalking is UNWANTED attention; otherwise, it's flirting, and "coincidentally" showing up in the same place as the object of your affection is all part of the game of love!
But remember, just Being There isn't enough; you have to make an actual move, or it DOES start to seem like stalking. When you do find him somewhere outside of school, go up to him, say Hi, and try not to leave it at that! Take your conversational cues from your surroundings; if you're at the Mall, ask casually what brings him there. If you're at a movie theater, ask him what he's seeing (what a coincidence, you're there to see the same movie!).
What happens next depends on how he responds to that. If you begin to notice him looking at you more often and more intently, or if he starts acting nervous-in-a-good-way around you, going out of his way to be near you, etc. - then you've got him hooked and you can start reeling him in!
