I really would like to be friends, but he seems pressured to be intimate. What should...

...I do? I am a 19 year old girl with no friends and never dated. I began to talk to a really awesome yet terribly shy guy named "Tommy". He's 20 and very mature yet innocent. He still lives with his mother because of school, and still listens to her like he was nine. He's a really good kid.

He asked me out to the movies in January. We began hanging out alone and with his male friends once or twice a week.
He began to touch me each time we saw one another, like play a nudging game with my leg under the table, touch my hair, sit close Enough to be touching my thigh, side, arm, or all of it! He also began to tell his brother and friends to leave the room and house so we could be alone.
He cuddled me once and it lead to him being sexually aroused. He didn't talk to me for almost two weeks
Last time I was with him, he finally had the courage to hold my hand. He held it and squeezed it gently a few times, I responded by smiling and rubbing his knuckles. Everything seemed fine.

But now, he hasn't talked to me since. And he turned down two invites to hang out (one was that he was drinking at his home with his brother and he mom didn't want mento come over, and he had to work and had a lot of homework.)
It's been two very sad weeks.
I like him very much as a friend, and I like him as a boyfriend.
However, I'm more worried about staying friends and depressed that once again, someone came in my life and left me to wonder WTF I did wrong.
Does he feel pressured to be affectionate? Why is it so awkward?!
What should I do?
