So I have this thing this week and I guess it's a date and you know, the guys nice enough if a bit of an odd chappie and I'm not really used to this sort of thing. To be honest, it's the best possible place to go on a date in the world ever (i.e. a PIXIES gig, everyone got that... PIXIES), so the loud music and all will mean if I flounder at conversation it won't be so important because the evening will be special already. I'm pretty nervous I have to say he's such a lovely guy and I don't want to look like an idiot. We're meeting for a drink before hand and I'm terrified I'll just blush and forget how to talk. He's very endearing, tries hard to be funny and make jokes, he's most cute and take a genuine interest in things.
I hope it's a good evening, but my lack of experience in this sort of thing concerns me.
Basically, I need tips. What to wear? What sort of good date tips you have? any useful information you think I need.
He has also requested that tips from a male prespective may be useful. |

Be yourself.

Try not to ogle Frank too much.

Seriously, though, maybe he's just shy. I'm sure he's the one who really feels like an idiot. As a bit of an outsider, I know what it's like trying to give a good impression to people socially. It sounds like he's probably nervous about it, and obviously your a bit unsure, just chill out and play it by ear, I suppose. Thinking about these things too much makes it worse [listen to me..'The Voice Of Experience'! ;)], and it's gonna be a fantastic night in any case, see your seeing The Pixies. :) |

Yeah like Kathryn says, just be yourself. Having met you, I can say that that will be impressive enough.
I'd walk her everyday, into a shady place

Awww, monkey, what a sweet thing to say. We love our Tre!
Any boy would be a fool not to like you, Kitty.

You don't have to be nervous either, if he doesn't like you he obviously is an empty box so it's a win/win situation.

And wear a t-shirt with a funny slogan/picture on it so you have something to talk about. Just kidding, what Kathryn said.

Kitty, ressurect your old T-shirt with that lovely sentiment, you know the one I mean. Don't make me post it here. I'll blush.

Is that the royal we or do you mean is he known to the forum because if you're suggesting I'm only saying nice things because he's lurking you'd be dead wrong. |
