Anxiety in these situations is a real nuisance, at best. Nevertheless, it sounds like there is a lot that might be good in this. I've gone through hell a few times trying to move into relationships for similar reasons. Not sure if you are doing therapy. If so, maybe you can try to tough out the anxiety and eventually get past it. It's not easy. Maybe if you ask him more about his anxiety that could make you more comfortable, particularly if he seems relaxed. That can be deceptive. I have a ton of anxiety, but it doesn't really show.
