Going on a first date tonight,..

Hello everyone, I posted here a week or so ago about finding the time to date, and here I am making time.


I am going to the movies with the guy that I met on the dating site. This will be our first face to face meeting. I actually think that the movies are a better idea then coffee or something because you are not expected to make conversation, and you get to get a good look at each other before moving on. We have no plans to do anything afterward, which is good in case we are not impressed with each other.


I hate this first meeting! I did this twice before, and each time was like a year apart because of awful first meetings. I am dreading this, but I am going anyway. Wish me luck!


oh...and yes...my mother knows where I am going (she's babysitting), I realize the risks.


Thanks everyone. Ill report the horror or happy story tomorrow.

Good luck and tell us how it goes.

I agree about the first meeting jitters. No fun for sure. But you will be fine. I usually pick a coffee meeting for the first time - it is quick and I can talk easier than a movie but you have to go with what you like. Hopefully it is good enough to do coffee or something afterwards!!
