We had a great conversation and lots of flirting, but nothing more than a hug at the end of the date. He was a little shy, so I mentioned that we should get together again and he agreed, but didn't say when. I texted him the next day to say I had a great time and hope to see him soon, but his didn't mention getting together again in his response. I know I must sound needy, but I really like this guy a lot. I'm hoping for a second date. My fear is that he really does like me but may be too shy to ask. If he doesn't ask within a few days should I ask him?

Don't worry at all that there was no more than a hug at the end of the first date. My boyfriend didn't kiss me properly until the fourth date! It's these kinds of guys that are worth it. My boyfriend also didn't ask me out on a second date straight away or when he contacted me after the date. It took him a few days to do it. I asked him about this recently and he said he didn't want to come across as too eager.
I don't think there's anything wrong in you sending him a quick message and asking to catch up for a coffee or something...or better yet...did you talk about any restaurants, places, etc when you were on your date? If you did, you could casually suggest you two check it out?
You have nothing to lose by contacting him one more time...you will find out if he's keen or not. If he makes excuses, says he's busy, etc then let it go. If he's interested and you ask directly he'll take the bait.
Good luck!

Yes, ask him. He might be shy. Maybe he thought the same as you did. And at least he did respond to you. Ask him out again and see what happens.
