So ATRL... what do you like to do when going on your first date with that cutie you met at school/work/concert/club/bar/grindr/pof/ etc etc.. Do you go somewhere classy? Or just some coffee?

And more importantly, do you get nervous? And ho do you try and calm those nerves?

Any embarrasing stories to tell? Things you regret doing? Spill

I have a date in 1 hour and 30 minutes.. and look at me, on atrl instead of getting ready.. addiction problem

Just get REALLY drunk, wasted if you can, before the date. I promise you it will do good!

just chew on some gum, and think about something else.
And most important be your self.

Seconds before being with him think to yourself this "talk to him, don't act awkward, look in his eyes while talking", wear tons of perfume, don't let much time pass by without neither saying a word, always have something on your mind to talk about, if you're talking about something with him at the same time think about the next thing you'll talk about so it won't get awkward or just do what Jonny Lighting told you to.

When it comes to places it depends on the guy, if I know something more serious will come out of it we go to a coffee or some classy place if it's just for fun we go to my or his house.

I get nervous but that changes depending on the guy, too if he is as talkative as me it's all fine if he is very quiet and shy I get uncomfortable therefore I get nervous.

I don't take it that seriously.

I take about 5 shots of vodka

Just talk and be yourself.

I know it's corny, but it's the right way to go.

And if the entire date (I'm not talking the beginning or parts - the entire date) feels awkward, then it just wasn't meant to be.

Last time I did that, I found myself being blacked out on his bed and him telling me I puked all over his comforter last night

This date I am going sober. we are just having coffee at starbucks so that means tons of talking. my eorst fear is that we will run out of things to talk about since we texted a lot already so I know lots of stuff about him. I will c how it goes. there are a few topics/questions in mind already though

Nervous though...

but really, do you guys have no etories to tell about your first dates?

We should go on a date.

This flopped hard

The date was nice. we had coffee at starbucks and stayed there for 2:30 hours talking about a lot of things. I was nervous as hell but I think so was he. At the end of the date we just kissed bye and he told me to text him or tells me.he will text me. Seems like he wants to go on a second date so I am excited!

How can you maintain the conversation that long? Teach me master?

i haven't been on a date since i was 14. and i dont even think that constitutes as a date

Horrible, but it depends on the person.

first date was an ugly short guy I wanst nervous i was more please end please end

with barry i was so nervous on meeting him because we did text for a while before hand, once i saw her adorable face for the first time and we spoke i wasn't nervous no more it was the best date ever and lasted till 1am,.. and i never had that with a cute guy before

I love dates like that Sounds promising!

I had a like that about two months ago, and well, now he's my boyfriend.
