well..u're afraid of rejection , that's normal..but think about it, he was sort of rejected by you b4 too right? so he's keeping a distance cuz he thought u aren't interested.
since u r now, probably you should just make the 1st move...if u just sit there and wait, he won't come..cuz once bitten,twice shy..

if u like him and want him, i say, go for it ~ there's always a risk of rejection but at least u tried!
all the best! update us ~~
