Honestly, before "making a move" I would just try and talk to him more. Build up that friendship and see where it goes for both of you. It's hard to flat-out make a move with someone you don't have much of a relationship with (currently); it would come out of the blue and you probably won't get the response you are hoping for. But there's nothing wrong with becoming more interested in talking to him. You could message him and ask how he's doing, or if a meme or something made you think of him you could share it and tag him.

About where y'all respectively are in life: it's okay not to have everything figured out. It can seem intimidating to approach a person who has all their stuff together (seemingly), but you're taking concrete steps to move forward and better yourself, and that definitely counts for something. It makes a difference.

Good luck and PM me if you need anything.
