Confused about love!?

Sigh, love is a complicated, sad and happy thing all rolled into one. The thing is that I'm in college and really want to focus all attention on school, but love had other plans, love doesn't wait, it comes out of nowhere and knocks you in the heart so quick you barely have time to breathe.So there is this one guy who likes me a lot, I can tell by the way he stares at me. And I like him too. But honestly my whole future rests on me getting good grades, am I missing out on life by choosing college>love.
Sometimes I take detours around the the campus just to avoid him. I heard a mutual friend tell him that when he doesn't see me he gets really depressed and sad, and that makes me sad. A part of him wants to comfort him, but my brain is telling my heart to shut up, focus on college and don't toy with other people's feelings. I really really do like him, I can't stress that enough. But my schedule is so hectic, job, bills, etc.
So my question is: should I "coincidently" show up where he is? It makes him happy to see me...
Sorry I know its a stupid question, but sometimes I wonder why such an intelligent person can be so stupid when it comes to love :(

Well u have to gotta balance it out , don't u? I mean come on , imagine your life 20 years from now , I am sure you will have had plenty of lovers and relationships. At that point you might be with someone or you might just be alone. Happy or unhappy. Look , here is the thing no man is ever worth missing out on being the best self that you can be. So do not in any way compromise yourself , but remember that not everyone is lucky enough to find love. This thing that you have with him might last a while , might end soon, u never know but u never will if u let the chance pass u by. Here is the deal, talk to him casually, be cool and see where it goes from there but if it comes between ur education then you will have to explain to him and I am sure if he is the right kinda person he will totally understand and besides u perform better in everything when your in love.
