Why do you think we're so awkward around each other?

Anonymous
My crush and I talk to each other basically the whole time we're together *if there are other people there.* Every time he jokes or tells a story it's basically to me - in general when he talks he focuses on me in some way. I do the same and we're super talkative, laugh a lot, etc. Yet when it's just the two of us we are... kind of awkward, like we can have a conversation about anything but it feels weird like neither of us knows what to do or say or something. Sometimes we just awkwardly glance at each other and then I'll throw in some topic so we have something to do haha.

I mean we can hang out for hours - like even go to Walmart and just wander - but especially when we're with people and they disappear, he suddenly goes all quiet and I kind of do too. Not always but enough that I've noticed. Its not like "oh I want to leave" quiet - I'm pretty sure he really really likes me, God willing - I like him a lot too. I think maybe more like nervous quiet.

It's like we want to be around each other but sometimes get super quiet and awkward and yet we don't make a move to go.
