👀 this kinda sounds like me but the guy is actually my best friend. its hard to not make eye contact and be akward around him but i dont push anyting because i want him to be comfortable. so yeah you could probaly ignore him and keep a cool envirinment with you two orrr you could make subtle advances that looks like you are being nice (which you should truly be) but make sure it is not fake cause thrn you blew your chance good luck. 😅
