It sounds like he likes you! I would almost bet on it, but sometimes guys especially young ones (actually at any age) they can be confusing. He may just see you as a really good friend!
I think he is into you and you need to just tell him. If you don't have the confidence to tell him in person then do it in a note or text. Honestly though I don't think you have anything to worry about.
Next time you guys are alone tell him, maybe even on the phone. Don't do it in front of people because soemtimes people act different on the spot like that. Good Luck!
The easiest cop out is to write him a note. Not an e-mail or text, a note. Make it cute and tell him how much you appreciate those things he does for you.
Otherwise, catch him off guard and plant a wet one on him and see what he does. If he says "eww" you got the wrong guy =).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
