I'm going on a date! My first one ever. She actually asked *me* out (I was too chicken). I suggested coffee, so I guess that's what we're doing. Umm.. so what do I do now? I'm a complete and utter newbie at this whole "dating" concept. Do I pay? What do we talk about? Was I supposed to get her number? Ack! I'm already getting nervous.

Dear god...

 

[Mojoed]

Ack!

 

[TreyRandom]

Be yourself, relax, and enjoy it.

Bingo, best words of advice you can get. Offer to pay.

 

[rh71]

"was I supposed to get her number?"

Umm, yeah that would've helped I think. Show some interest or sumpin'. And all guys pay on a first date.

 

[KarenMarie]

Yes, you pay!

Or at least offer to. If she says she will pay for herself, tell her no... but if she insists, then you pay the bill and she leaves the tip.

Well it's not like I don't see her around campus. And I know where she lives. And I could probably get her number online if I wanted to. I don't know though, maybe I should've still asked for it.

Sounds like I'm paying.

Treat it like a normal "meeting" with her, except start making her feel special, but not in the way where you're obsessed with her. If you don't have your number, get it at the end of the date. Say something like "Maybe I'll call you up later and we can do this again!" and if she agrees, THEN ask for her number. And yeah, normally the guy pays on the first date. After that it's usually split, or whatever you feel like.

Other than that, be yourself, be cool and be calm. Don't strain yourself out with anything, just have fun

 

[Quasmo]

heres a trick... put out your hand like theres something in it. say "hold this" when she sticks out her hand. hold her hand. It's slick.

edit: make sure you've fapped in your hand before this.

 

[gunblade]

Stop panic.

Bring your laptop with you and find a coffee shop with WIFI. Load on to ATOT and then you can have a realtime guide available.

It is the best step you will ever need to get the best out of a successful date.

 

[bootymac]

Okay, don't be a stalker now. How did you find out where she lives? Did she tell you? Have you gone over before? Yeah.. and uhhh.. the whole finding her phone number on the internet.. no.

Just becareful now

 

[MartyMcFly3]

Skywalker???

 

[TipsyMcStagger]

be yourself, pay, and ask her for the number, dont get it online.

 

[chuckywang]

just be sure not to stick it in her belly button.

I thought it involved unzipping of the pants and whipping it out. Must be the PG-rated joke.

 

[wviperw]

Do I let her know that this is my first date? I would think that would kind of scare her away. Or maybe just say "sorry, I'm still not very good at this". Although she might also think it's "cute," but whatever.

No, this guy's actually going out on a date. If it were Skywalker, something would have happened to prevent it.

Like, hell freezing over or something.

We were in a group together tonight, and she happened to ride with me in my car, and I happened to drop her off at her apartment.

I wouldn't say that stuff, it'll probably make it more awkward than it's already gonna be. Just play it cool, relax and have fun!

No, that's the easy way out of having a sucky date. Make the best of it, think through what you will do and what to talk about, go in with confidence, and you won't have to use that line. The hard part is already over... you know she already has an interest in you.

At worst, this is practice for later on when you meet your future wife.
