My first date
I am about to go out on my first date and I am excited, nervous, anxious, happy, paranoid and a lot of other emotions that are just indescribable. But I am worried about a few things (obviously). Maybe it’s just paranoia but I really need to keep my fears in check and cool it.
How should I look? It’s obvious that she doesn’t put much stock in appearances but I wonder what I should wear. Should I dress informally? Am I supposed to wear a suit? What the fuck should I do?
Do I have enough money? Let’s face the facts, I am NOT wealthy. In fact, I honestly think that I could not feed myself if I were not in this industry. However, it is just a dinner and a movie so it shouldn’t be that expensive, right? I need to stop worrying about this and let the problem take care of itself. Because if I don’t, I am going to worry myself into some deep deep shit.
Who can I ask for advice? And who do I have in my corner that can advise me for help? I would ask my parents but that’d be like asking a thief in jail how to steal. If I am going to do this thing right I should just remain calm and be myself. Easy advice to SAY but put into practise, this is going to be a disaster.
But alas, I should remember that I have nothing to fear. She has agreed to go out with me based on the person that I am. I should not be afraid, but rather, excited. I am going to go out with someone because they like me for who I am at the core and they don’t want to change who I am. This is wonderful and I couldn’t be happier.

Don’t worry about the date… worry about freezing to death.

Just be yourself, relax, and have fun!
Don’t forget to be a good listener when she is talking.
