Following on from the post where I asked how to make a new friend, I took the advice given, and joined one of those online dating sites – and after emailing some very nice sounding girls (and being emailed by some very ‘strange’ girls) I’ve managed to get a date with one someone who if they haven’t told me a pack of lies sounds very compatible. No reason to think she’s not been honest, so we’ve set a date up…

Been a while since I’ve took a girl on a date, we are planning to meet up in a public trendy bar /cinema complex and see how we get on. We’re keeping it simple, nothing too elaborate, have a general chat in the bar area and its tonight we are meeting and my nerves are playing up a bit. I’m quite shy, but once this is overcome I will be fine.

How best to settle this and what is the best way to meet and greet her? I’m well out of touch with this, and I’m sure she is just as nervous as me, so anything tips wise to ease the meeting?

Looking for good tips, make her laugh perhaps? I always think a quick laugh can ease you out a nervous situation.

Thanks all…. Wish me luck. Sorry for another dating advice thread…

just be yourself pal...

dont let your nerves get the better off you

instead tell yourself you are meeting a special friend and take it from there :)

try not to put too much emphasis on it , mentally try and get yourself geared up for what you plan on doing after you meet and go home like the next day, that helps take the pressure off...

good luck
 
Talk about your penis as much as possible.

Explain how men are superior to women socially, physically and mentally.
 
punch her in the ovaries sling her over your shoulder and head home

Jobs a goodun,
 
yeh, relax and have a few, but not too many. :p

i always find having a drink opens me up a bit more, a bit sad i know. i hate being so shy. when i met my current girlfriend in the pub for the first time i sat on her by accident :eek: :D

TS - Maybe you should look at my interview guide :p

Lol @ the inevitable bunch of comedy replies.

The only way to take this is to relax and be yourself. Trying to be someone you're not will catch you out further down the line.
 
Cheers everyone – so don’t go with a ‘loaded gun’ have a few drinks, punch her and drag her home and call out ‘alpha male’ is the way to go then?

Oh – and if she’s ugly run away? LOL

Right all joking aside – no I’ll chill, nerves are bad, stomach is turning but I’ve seen her picture, although you never know – she’s not ugly. Very attractive. And be myself, just as I was in the emails and txt messages we’ve exchanged..

Phew – still nervous though..
