Why didn't he reciprocate the touch?

Anonymous
I went on the best first date ever recently. We hung out for a little over 6 hours. Had dinner went to the for drinks and then to the movies. He was a complete gentleman walked me to my car and even paid for me ( which had never happened to me before I've either paid my share or the whole amount). We never had a dull moment it was great conversations and it was great. He was a little shy in the beginning couldn't really look me in the eye and a little quiet but it soon picked up. I tried to show my interest by hitting his arm when laughing and bumping into him when laughing. Leavening my arm where he could put his next to it or hold my hand at the movies. But besides the initial hug at the beginning of the date he seemed terrified to go into my space. At the end of the date he said he had an amazing time but I had to initiate a the hug. He agreed to come to my friends birthday with me a couple days later. Am I being friend zone since he seems scared to break the touch barrier or am I over thinking it?
