Me and one of my best boy mates have recently got together, I mean very recently, only a few days ago.
And we're both really shy so it's not going anywhere. I mean, we don't really act like we're going out apart from the fact we generally walk around together and hug when we say goodbye.
If we were alone I'd be much more comfortable, but we havn't been alone since we started dating, and I feel really self-conscious in front of everyone else.
What should I do about it?

At your own house, you'd probably feel most comfortable, so maybe less shy/self-conscious. But anywhere will do. One of the cutest date ideas is a picnic in the park. But anyway, as for the shy part, since yall are both shy, you both probably are nervous and what not. Are you holding hands yet? If not, when your hands bump into his, just go for it once, and grab it. That will give him the go ahead to start holding your hand in the future (hopefully). Oh and if you have a mutual friend with him, it wouldn't hurt to mention to them whatever it is you would him to do/change, and say you wouldnt mind if they passed on that information to him.

You're in a realtionship with a guy you really like and who really likes you back. Don't be self conscious, who cares what anyone else thinks about you. You guys are in like and screw what anyone else has to say about it. [ unstrungbeads's advice column | Ask unstrungbeads A Question ]

The best way for you two to be alone is to go to one of your houses. If you don't wanna do that, you can go to the movies, the mall, or ANYTHING.
you shouldn't feel self conscious, theres no reason to! he obviously likes you if he asked you out, and you obviously like him if you said yes!you should also tell you boyfriend how you feel. he might feel the same way, but if he doesn't he'll help you gain confidence
