Is it better to speak or to die

So I have had a crush on my classmate for a little over 3 months only and fort he record I am gay very fem presenting. And to make a long story short i heard from a friend that he actually knew what I liked him from the start. We keep having eye contact in class and I dont really know if that means anything I also heard that he doesn't really mind that I have a crush on him but I have not been onteracting with him for a long time now we practically became strange despite the fact we see eachother 5 times a day and stuck in a room for 8 hours. My question is should I ask him the question I've been dying to know. Is he weirded out by me🥲
