I'm too shy to talk to him because I really like him, but I might not be what he's looking. :/
I understand. Maybe it helps to think about what the worst thing is that could happen.
Just say something about uhm... that math is really hard (almost everyone agrees on that, so that makes it a more accessible topic). Worst thing that could happen at that moment is that he looks at you and after that ignores you. In that case you have the answer that he is not worth it, and everything goes back to normal.
What also could help in this case is talking with a friend about (again a general) topic and than just casually turn toward him and ask him what he thinks. This way he looks like an ass if he reacts in a mean or rejecting way, and you can continue the conversation with your friend like nothing happened.
Believe me (this coming from a shy person herself) it does get so much better in the future!
