Shy guy! Please help me♥️

So my friends boyfriends cousin is interested in me, he is a very shy guy and he is 20. He has never had a girlfriend and he doesn’t really talk to girls! We spoke months ago for only a day or so and he took 40 mins to reply to each message I sent even if it was just “ how are you?” I met him the other night and he was really quiet but really friendly and I felt something good about him! It was a good vibe. I added him & sent him a message yesterday and it’s been a full 24 hours but he hasn’t accepted or replied. My friend and her boyfriend have messaged him and his been saying “ she’s so cute and she’s so different from other girls but it’s hard to explain I don’t know how to reply I don’t know how to talk I’ve never done this before I will fuck up!” I don’t know what to do because I wanna get to know him but if he can’t even message me over social media it will be so hard to meet up face to face! 😬 someone please help!
