How to get over first date nerves?

[Brittany]

Haven't been on a date in forever, and now I have one next week with a really awesome guy. Does anyone have advice for getting rid of being nervous? I love that this is a romance book group and we all read romance but I suck at romance in real life lol

i don't have that many tips, but just try to not put too much pressure on yourself to do well on the date, i promise your life doesn't depend on how the date goes and if you feel like you did/said something embarassing, don't stop to overthink it but just continue talking/asking.
good luck🍀

honestly first date nerves is the fun of going on a date, your all nervous and then when your actually on the date your not really thinking about it anymore. it’s okay to be nervous.

Just be yourself (I know that might sound lame) and try to have fun.

update: it went bad but we still are going out lol. The romance novel continues.

Honestly if you want a date to go well you just have to fake confidence. Ask questions about them and ask follow up questions. For example. Do you read? if they say yes ask what kind of books they're interested in and book related questions. If they say no then ask about other hobbies they have.
