I made a fool of myself
I'm not sure if I can fully express how much I want to hide under a rock and never come out. I attend college & have 2 classes together with a guy I might be interested in (first & last classes). I can see it in his eyes and actions that he is interested in me, I always catch him looking & he tries to initiate conversations, sadly I am not a very good conversationalist and don't give more than a couple of short word answers(however I can write a whole story online easily, so sorry this may be long). We don't talk that much with each other because of this, just occasional casual talk, being schoolwork or how we're doing.
Today we had a sub, we could leave whenever we were finished writing our essay. So I finished up early but for some reason thought I would wait for him to finish as well to leave, we both usually finish our work early. So I pretended I was still writing. Shortly after he finished up handed it in I gave mine in and we both packed up and left. I think he knew that I did that on purpose. We started walking together and had small talk (I think I stuttered!) and as we left the building I pushed the door open on a woman on the other side of it, appologized sheepishly. Out of nowhere I felt to just offer him a ride but was nervous, he said I have my car but its parked a little far away you can drop me off, and I said something stupid like yeah if you dont mind! He playishly asked how is your driving should I go and smiled. I chucked and said no its good you can trust me with it its alright. I look nothing like a so called "nerd" but guess I act like one. Well we got in and he remarked wow how do drive such big cars and I just cheesily said I like them better its easier(no its not everyone knows that its not) and he said lets see how you drive and I started going. He said my car is that way pointing beyond the barriers saying I guess you cant go that way. I told him I actually jump the curb if theres no campus security around when I'm late and could do it again now. He said no way how? So I did and he was amused thinking I was being sly but out of nowhere the security saw and pulled me over. He said uh-oh this is not going to be good. I told the security that I was in a rush appologizing and wouldnt do it again, and I stuttered! They said they would confiscate my tag if I did. Embarrassment! He said oh now theyre following you out. I said its ok I dont care. He said I hate these security, if it was me they wouldnt let me go. Then asked how do you get to park in here and I instead of playfully saying I have my ways I just bluntly told him how I got a note from the doctor saying "I have asthma" and to use something they can't prove.. (even though I do). He said oh interesting. Well meanwhile I passed the parking lot outside and asked him where is the enterance, he said we passed it. I said "oh you didn't tell me, I never entered it before so I dont know", he said "sorry about that I should have told you, I was just umm admiring your driving", but I was driving shabbily because I was nervous, and I smiled and said oh thanks its ok and made a sloppy U-turn, he said you can just drop me off here and I did, I was already so shocked at what had happened and my brain shut down, I wanted to tell him to have a nice weekend but was thinking of what other things to say and ended up saying have a nice time! And then tried cleaning it up with "and weekend" and stuttered again!He laughed and said you too thanks for the ride. I said no problem and then a take care as he was closing the door but he walked away and so I drove away :( I would never go back if I wasn't obligated to.. What should do/say, if anything? Anything to help me feel less horrible? Thanks in advance :(

It's understandable to be embarrassed but honestly, if he liked you, I don't think that would make him stop. He would most likely think it was cute and goofy.
Trust me, you're fine so don't worry about it.

Yeah. I know this FEELs like the end of the world, but it's really not. If he liked you, he probably still does.
Really. Relax. You acted like a goof 'cause you liked him. It sounds like he acted like a goof too (which might mean he likes you.)
Laugh it off. Admit it was dumb. Try to calm down. You are your own worst enemy right now.

Maybe this was a bit awkward but I am sure if he really likes you he won't hold it against you. Next time you talk to him try to relax, Ask him if he would be interested in going out for a coffee and you both could try from there. Trust me when U tell ya, You did a hell of a lot better then I could do. I can't talk to people to save my own ass! Ya did fine! Just for next time relax! Just be yourself.
