By which he means, no, you cannot use you bass skills to impress women . The nervous twitchiness will go away if you can mange to spend more time with her. At least that's how it works for me. The more you get to know her the more relaxed you'll be. Alternatively, try masturbating furiously before you meet her.

+1

Just be sure you don't do a solo performance with the aid of Icy Hot. You think you're twitching a lot now? Just wait until you get some of that stuff on your man bits

It might be time to dust of off a link to a good old standby.

Yeah, just tell her you play bass, she'll immediately lose all interest, your shot will be blown and you can relax and not stress.

OK, these other guys forgot to mention that you do still have a chance. if she does not know the difference between a bass and a lead guitar, you might be able to pull it off... for a little while...
There is also a question of what kind of bass. If it is a squire, start thinking about chemical castration. You will not be needing those things anyway. If it is a cooler shape, you may pull it off....for a little while...

Practice on ugly chicks first.

I'm sorry that was insensitive.

Practice on fat chicks first.
