A guy behaving strangely . . .?

Okay, so I got out of a long-term relationship and really wasn't looking for anyone for a while, but in my class (college) I met a very physically attractive guy (to my eyes.). Slightly overweight, nerdy, quiet, intelligent guy.

At any rate, he was always hanging out with a girl who was very negative, always badmouthing about everyone, you know the type. Things were getting very ugly between us and it looked very much like there was going to be some trouble but she finally dropped out.

Now, he is lab partners with my very good friend so we do talk, but he is quiet and rarely volunteers anything. He doesn't seem to be so reticent wround the other girls, and often talks freely with them. However, whenever he thinks I am not looking, I catch him watching me. When I look at him he quickly looks away.

Okay, I am certainly not a novice when it comes to the romance game, but I have to ask--should I just let this one go; perhaps his friend said things about me (which I am certain she did)--or should I still subtly try and let him know that I am interested in him without pushing things? I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable at all.

Update:

Sorry, I am not a person who looks for a fling or a quick screw. I have been out of my relationship I said I HAD NOT BEEN looking for one, however this gentleman has caught my eye and maybe I am ready to move on. However he is behaving in a way that I have not often seen men behave--either they areinto you or they aren't. Thank you very much for your time.

    Perhaps the girl did say something nasty about you, but she's gone now! Who needs her, right? I think that his behavior is a sign that he likes you more than anything else. I would definitely find the least intimidating way to get him alone for a chat or maybe ask your lab friends as a group to go get coffee. Is there somewhere on campus you could ask, "hey, would you walk over to so and so with me?" Then ask him to coffee or to get a drink. Something that isn't too intimidating (cuz he's shy, which is cute :) ) Give it a couple tries. Ask him questions about himself to let him know you're interested. However, if you feel there is no response, then I would let it go. I'm pretty sure he must like you, but no need to waste your time on someone who isn't going to jump on the chance to date you, especially when he has already acted like he likes you. GOOD LUCK!!
