Dear grace0303:

Ask him to explain to you what he meant by being “nervous about getting into a relationship”

And, if he is nervous about getting into a relationship, why did he keep talking to you “about meeting his family, spending Christmas together, introducing me to his friends, taking me around his hometown, etc.”

Ask him what that night with you meant to him.

Ask these questions, and more, in as calm voice as you can muster, in a non threatening, non arguing way, so that he will be more likely to tell you his truth. Get the information so you can understand what is going on.
