He is great, he's a gentleman, we have so much in common it's strange and my parents think he is wonderful. But I don't think I can stay with him much longer. He was the one that asked me out and yet he never arranges to do anything with me, I am always the one to ask. He doesn't hold my hand unless someone hints to him he should, I always take his hand but then holds it really lightly as if he doesn't really want to. He never hugs me. I always have to ask for one or hug him first. He doesn't kiss me. He doesn't normally sit next to me either unless someone reminds him that he should be with me and even then he still seems unsure...Although he never really shows it, I think he loves me alot more then I love him. He calls me his girlfriend but I'm not feeling it. It just feels like we are still close friends, only now we hold hands and put kisses at the end of our texts. As lovely as he is, the whole thing just seems really awkward and I don't know if I can carry on much longer. People are starting to notice that we don't act like a couple and he just seems sooo shy. I don't know what to do though. I know we can still be friends but I know how happy he was when I said yes to him and I can't bring myself to tell him that it is not going to work out.

 It does sound like he is shy. Maybe you should take the lead here and show him what you want.
