'My guy is not making the first move'

This guy claims he is in love with me and keeps calling me his muse. He has even painted pictures of me. I want him to do more than that. At the risk of sounding sexually perky, I want him to make love to me! He's not the shy type either so I don't understand what his problem is. Is he too much into art that he doesn't want the ‘action' we require to keep the relationship going?

Dear Huma,
You seem to be in a hurry dear girl while your guy is going slow. He is cautious and treading with care. If he had made his moves fast and swiftly, I am sure you would feel he is going too fast. He is playing safe as he does not want the relationship to go wrong. Why don't you drop a hint? Or dress up sexily for him? I am sure he will get the hint. But remember it is better to be safe than sorry.
