Dating for about a month, no kiss

Anonymous
I've been dating this guy for a little over a month. On our last few dates he's become more physically flirtatious: looking for excuses to pinch or hug me or generally get close to me.

In general, I tend to send out "signals" that I don't want to be touched. I kind of maintain a personal bubble, but I'm trying to break down that wall because I am attracted to this guy (and would like that kiss.)

I didn't start dating (in general, not just him) until relatively recently, so I'm still a bit uncomfortable being physically flirtatious. How can I initiate/ respond to touch while 1) still being personally comfortable and 2) without throwing myself at him?
