HELP!! I NEED ADVICE ABOUT THIS CANCER GUY! (IMMA ARIES)?

Okay hey there ppl.! Im gonna try && make a long story short.. I met this Cancer male that is like 1000000% my type physically =) Although on a mental status we are not quite where we could be,, being that we are both really are shy... But him even a little more ... I don't like making the first move & I heard that cancer men are afraid of rejection so they rarely do..I've known him since about april 2009 and we talked but never really made it official.. I've also read that they can be quite indirect with their feelings about yu so yu never really quite know just how into yu he is... Somethings that kinda show me he is interested Is how like he would just stare at me and not say nothin && just smile with his perfect white teeth.. then i'll Smile and get shy like "what is yu lookin at" then he would be like "what I can't stare" lol or we will be watchin a movie & he just holds my hand little things like that lol... ways that has me second guessing it is that ... he like never really complimented me... other than very seldom through a text... Or like he never tries to make moves on me,, && no guy i've been with has been that distant... anyhow I guess what im asking is do yu think he is into to me? && is it true that cancer men DO NOT flirt or is all up on a girl he really likes (due to his extreme shyness)... please help && leave whatever info. yu can thanks in advance! =) peace & love
