Date on Thursday, tips/help?

Okay, so. I finally told this girl i like how i felt about her and it turned out she felt the same way, so we're going on a date. This is my first date, any helps and tips? I'm really worried about me being nervous and screwing everything up, lol.

That's great, Ali. I wish I had the same response the first time I told my feelings to a girl :( (anyway, I married her like six years later and she turned out to be a real PITA). The best advice you can get, as already offered, is: Just be yourself. Keep relaxed and be spontaneous. Now, girls like a guy that can make them laugh, but don't behave like a clown trying to achieve that. Just if you have some cool and funny stories to tell, share them with her. Good luck! :cool:
 
The film will give you some time together without having to talk much, so you should be able to get over your nerves. Then you've just got to navigate dinner successfully!

If you're nervous, neck a couple of shots at the bar to loosen yourself up. The alcohol will help you fly, but unlike necking pints, shots won't make you need to go to the can every 5 minutes. Be sincere, gentlemanly and be yourself. Just kick back, have fun and have no expectations of where the date will go, just let it roll.
No! don't drink to loosen up.
