I think its always nice to have a friend, but keep in mind it might be harder for you to bond with him if you get him a friend I find for myself having 4, I got them all separately and bonded first with them before adding another, I think you said he is still scared of you right now so its something to think about but its ultimately up to you :)

They do enjoy having a friend around, but like Laura said bonding first would be better. If you don't bond first, and just get another tiel, they both will be interested in each other more than you. So taming/bonding may become difficult..but it's really up to you, if you think he is lonely! :D:thumbu:
