First dates are often awkward. I guess that at this point, while things are awkward, you really don't know for sure what she's thinking (does anyone know what women are thinking?). Try setting up a second date sometime in the near future, and if she ignores you or makes excuses, then you know for sure.
In any event, you took the right steps, though awkward, which means that eventually you'll find yourself where you want to be - in a relationship. That's great work!
I got married at 26, and I can't tell you how many awkward dates or approaches I made prior to that! I guess that what I would recommend is that you target women who are more outgoing and less shy. Typically, in a good relationship, each partner's strengths cover over the weaknesses of the other. I'm not as talkative, and my wife and her family are very talkative. See if you can identify someone like that. I'm not saying you can't have a relationship with another shy person, but my experience shows looking for an extroverted person may suit you better.
