softboi helP !

i’m f (19) and have known a guy “R” (m 20) since my first week of college from an orientation group. we bonded quickly and talked over snapchat for a long time (always sort of flirty) and i quickly became attached. we were both really supportive and interested in one another’s opinions/hobbies/etc. we hung out in large group settings a few times and when i had a guy being creepy and saying he was going to come hangout when i said no, R came to check in. he dropped off with communication after a while, then we talked again over our summer break, then he dropped off again. he has my number saved over snapchat but has never texted, and i offered quite a bit of emotional support at one point. i found out he transferred into my major and we have talked over snapchat infrequently this year (still flirty), but we both aren’t able to talk in person. we have two classes together and his friends are always a little too uninviting looking. i’ve also been told that i’ll get a stare from him here and there. i can’t tell if he is just shy or if there’s something wrong here. how do i get past this “not being able to talk”?
