I suggest just giving presents to him occasionally until fall, which is when you get the most money. Then give him his favorite items here's a list of what he likes, also remember his b-day is on the 6th of winter. I know for girls it takes never ending present giving for them to like you. It's normally my goal to get a mate up to yellow by the end of my first year, and to get married by spring of my second.

You have to trigger his blue heart event. I found mine on a Thursday, it was sunny and in spring on the 3rd floor of the regular ore mine at 1pm.
His heart wont go up to blue without the event. He will come to your house for the next heart event after that. Once you give him enough presents after that heart event, he will be waiting outside your house for you one morning with a necklace for you ^.^
Hope this helps!
