Well you previously told me to ask him in person what's up but the thing is we've talked about it before and he tells me that he's just typically really shy and doesn't know what to say, but i don't know whether that's bad or not, but also he is a really emotional kid, and whenever I'm upset, he's always concerned I'm upset at him, and when I'm sad, he like gets really sad and upset. I don't want to make him sad by saying this cause my friends tell me I'm just making a big deal out of nothing. Should i still talk to him in person?

I know it sounds weird but that could be whats going on. If that is the case here's what I think you should do. Just accept the fact that he is shy in person, but don't let it control you. You can help him come out of his box if you take it slow and encourage him. If he doesn't know what to say to you, help him out by asking a ton of questions (questions that don't require one word answers, such as, "What did you do in practice today?" or "How was your day?") questions such as "How was your day" or "Did anything exciting happen to you today?" make it easy for him to respond and easier for him to ask you back (even if he asks you the same question you asked him). After awhile you won't need to set him up for a conversation, it will come to him more naturally, and he will begin to feel more comfortable around you. Tell me how it goes.
