Thecheesecake1 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Long story short there's a guy I've crushed on for six months. After six weeks of rather consistent messaging and occasional chats at work, he has asked me on a date. I'm ecstatic but .... I am PETRIFIED. When we meet at work (we are in retail and barely see each other cos were on two different floors) we are both painfully awkward... We chat, but I'm shaking and he is looking down.. we have spoken on the phone though and walk past each other alot... Tomorrow though we will be at a cafe for however long and i genuinely am so so nervous.... Luckily he is just as shy but i find that I'm more intense shy whereas he is quiet shy... He has been texting me non stop this week and I'm scared of messing up the one person I've been interested in since November.... What can i do? Link to comment
JaggerJim Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 You won't mess it up. Just go the cafe and meet up, hang, have some laughs, drink coffee, talk about work, talk about what's happening in your lives and then once that first awkward part is over, you can relax and really open up.

vesper Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Take a xanax, ha ha just kidding just try some breathing exercises before the date and then once you meet if will be just fine. Try to RELAX. The cafe environment will help you both relax and remember, he is nervous too. Link to comment

J Miracle Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Drink a ton of coffee during your first date. Its a diarrhetic and will give you the jitters! Jk As mentioned, youve already have met this guy and know him to a degree. Nothing to worry about. Link to comment

Write "I like you" in the word balloon. When you two meet, you will be shy and have difficulty talking, he will be shy and stare at the floor. As he stares at the floor, move the picture in his line of sight. Maybe he'll laugh and you guys can talk. Link to comment
johnnydanger Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Unless you plan to slip and fall on a waiter and make a big scene, there's little you can do to mess up with any guy who likes you. Obviously don't ask thing like when you are getting married or how many kids he wants. Just relax and have a good time. Link to comment
Wiseman2 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Yep agree with everyone else. Breathe relax enjoy. Just say to yourself "he's human, he likes me, it will be fun. No sweat." Link to comment
Thecheesecake1 Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 Thank you guys. Feeling very calm, just worried my stomach will kick off...It always does with guys and the last thing i want is a panic attack. Thanks so much folks!! Link to comment
Knight2001 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 you go enjoy yourself. you like him, he likes you. it might be awkward at work because you're in front of other people who know you. when you're in the cafe you'll be in a world of your own together. good luck and let us know how it goes !
