This may be a rather immature question to ask for help on, but fuck it.
I am 14-year-old girl. And, as the title would suggest, I have a crush on a boy in my grade (9th).
Generally, to show my interest in them subtly, I often spend time with them, throw out an occasional compliment, ask questions about them, and try to look them in the eyes when talking (I have a problem with that). I do my best to smile, which isn't a problem because I can't help smiling when I see them, and I'm trying to improve my posture.
I've actually found we have a lot of things in common with each other. We both draw, have watched some anime, have some type of OCD, are Hispanic (but that's irrelevant, I guess), generally enjoy chocolate as our favorite sweet, and often have a sarcastic attitude. Another thing, which I usually find important in somebody, is that he generally does well in his classes, and he even occasionally helps me with some math questions, since I'm a bit slow sometimes and never understand proofs.
Now that I've laid out the basic facts, here is where I need advice. How do you tell if somebody has an interest in you too? The only hint I have gotten is that he often sneaks glances at me during class or at the lunch table. Sometimes I catch him, but sometimes I notice out of the corner of my eye. I also remember saying how much I love South Park, and getting the reply that he doesn't watch it that much. A few days later he now knows about several episodes, and watches every new episode, even mentioning it in class the next day. The reason I got was that "he was bored and had nothing else to watch." That's a believable reason to me, though; I don't go out of my way to watch It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, but I've seen a lot of episodes.
That's the main thing I'd like advice on. If you're a guy, it may help more, so I could see the other gender's perspective on such things, and know how a guy acts/feels when they have a crush on a girl.
