Usually nice guys are shy. I dated a really nice guy and he wouldn't even hug me or hold my hand at first because he was so shy and, like you, I don't make the first move. So, after hoping he would get comfortable enough and waiting forever, I just hugged him and it went from there. Give him a few hints and push him in the right direction. I don't think being shy is any reason to get rid of him. Talk to him. Hope I helped. [ squirrell's advice column | Ask squirrell A Question ]

Maybe a peck on the cheek, or even on the lips- just see how he reacts..even if you don't usually make the first move, it wouldn't hurt to try in this case (guys love it).
Also, the fact that he hasn't tried anything is not a good reason to end the relationship. If you like him and find him to be a nice guy, then it's worth waiting for him to become more comfortable. He might just be unsure of what you are expecting, or might be a bit shy..especially since you guys haven't been dating for long. Try giving him a couple of hints, or even ask him if he wants to start taking things a little further, as in starting to make out. Afterwards, it's up to the two of you to decide how you want things to progress. [ ciao77's advice column | Ask ciao77 A Question ]

And i mean you don't want to pressure the guy so yeah i would just talk to him and figure out his opinions on the situation.
hope i helped; katie. [ happybabe2's advice column | Ask happybabe2 A Question ]
