I may not be the best one to ask as I have discarded the use of labels in my current relationship, but this is obviously important to you - how serious are you about this relationship?
If you have any hopes or inklings of a strong future in the works, being shy isn't going to cut it for being open and honest about your feelings and communicating those to him. Think of it this way - YOU are invested in this, you need to be assertive about making sure you take care of your own mental, physical, and spiritual/emotional health. One way you can do that is relieve yourself of the stress of playing the wondering game. If asking him outright isn't a solution, the only choice you may have left is to drop all worries, and just let this relationship progress naturally, and focus on WHO he is ... not the label you want to associate with him.
