How to calm myself down about this relationship?

When we are apart we really miss each other and can't wait to see each other again. At least that's how I feel but he says he feels that too. We talk a lot through phone msgs and on the msn and it seems like when we talk that way we have loads more stuff to say to each other rather than when we are together. When we are together we keep saying to each other things like "What can we talk about?", "Say something". Well he says them more to me than I do to him. I know I'm definately less talkative than he is and rather shy but is that the only reason for this? Even though he says he's not shy
I think he is. I mean he's told me "I love you" and calls me love, baby a lot through phone msgs and the msn but not when we are together. He said he doesn't call me those things when we are together because he's thinking of me because I had mentioned to take things slowly. But I wish he would. He said he's a little insecure but is trying to get over it. I believe I am to. How can I change that? For both of us this is our first relationship. I don't want to rush into things but I don't know if I wish things would move a little faster. Or am I just really happy and excited that's why I feel like this? If that's the case how can I calm myself down?

this is coming from a guy...it sounds a lot like my first relationship...I think it is because he doesnt have experience with women and is shy...also, it sounds like he is a virgin which is another reason I beleive he is very shy...it sounded a lot like me when I was younger until I met a girl that was very forward and pressed sex on me after being tired of me always never talkin and afraid to make moves. after that first time...we layed there and never talked so much in my life...it was great...that was 6 years ago...that girl is now my wife.
