We speak virtually every night on the phone.The problem is this: while I feel like we have a great time when we are together, absolutely nothing physical has happened. And I mean not even a kiss. We just say goodbye awkwardly and go our separate way.I don't have much relationship experience myself and I'm pretty shy. But I am just totally baffled as to whether we're even dating or not. I'm not sure if I should just take the leap myself and kiss him. Or should I broach the subject another way?Any advice would be much appreciated.Thanks!

 I guess it could mean you are dating, you certainly see enough of each other. However i think that you are both to scared to proceed to the next level of the relationship.
Next time the two of you are together, and the mood is right, lean forward and give him a kiss and see what reaction you get. Or tell him how you feel, and ask him where he see this relationship heading.
Good luck x

 Haha I miss being twelve when you could just turn around and say "So, are we going out then?" Those days were so much less complicated. My guess is that if things feel awkward when you're saying goodbye then there's something there. Feel the way with a few gestures on your dates, like touching his arm, or resting your head on his shoulder in the cinema, stuff like that. If you're worried about an awkward end of date kiss, this is what I did when I was in your situation.... lean in and kiss him on the cheek but really close to his mouth and then draw back just a little and look into his eyes. There's something about it, they just can't help kissing you back.
