GUYS AND GIRLS! What do you think he wants?

As far as number 3, I can relate to that. The corny romantic hollywood lines are a bit harder to think of on the spot whereas post date, they come a whole lot easier. Words also seem to flow and feel better in writing. Some girls don't take compliments very well despite their appreciation which can turn the compliments into awkward silence. So yes, probably just shy. And the fact that he didn't try to eat your face on the first kiss speaks towards his self restraint and leads me to believe that you're not just "some girl he wants to bang". I know what you have on here isn't a full and detailed description of your young relationship, but if it is going in the right direction, you'll know soon. And if you really are a 9, then he may also feel intimidated. So take it easy. Good luck!
