First date with your boyfriend/girlfriend awkward?

Ok, so, the saturday after this one, me and my boyfriend of 1 month r going to the movies together on our first date. I kno its weird that we didn't start seeing each other outside of school earlier, but it didn't bother me before because i'd have class with him and saw him more than i do now.

 

 

Anyways

 

I'm bringing my friend James with me, so it wont be as awkward (im still uncomfortable being all by myself with my bf)

 

My question is...have your first dates been awkward too? Just wondering

If they're both cool with it, then I guess do it. But I just seeing that making things more awkward. If it was a double date i'd understand but your guy friend just being the third wheel?

 

As for first dates, you two have been "dating" for some time now so the first date shouldn't be too awkward. It isn't like you two have just met.

almost 17

 

Whhhaattt?! c'mon now, forget this third wheelin' plan, it would be ok if you were 13 or 14 but almost 17 missy, if you like this guy you gotta get over the fears and if you can't then maybe you should consider that are just not mentally ready for relationships and that there is nothing wrong with it.

Well, i never went on a date before, period (forgot to put that in) and my boyfriend is a freshman who never had a girlfriend before.

If you need to bring someone, then maybe bring one of your gf not another guy....

Well don't worry its not half as scary as you think it is. I mean its not like this is a blind date where you've never met the guy. Seriously you see him all the time in school so obviously you guys have stuff to talk about and watching a movie is the EASIEST date plan ever, barely any communication is required so you don't need to worry about running outta things to say and if you do just pretend you're engrossed in the adverts. Seriously why not give it a shot just seeing him alone? The poor guy isn't asking for much, its not like he's gonna rape you in the cinema lol. Also taking a friend might give him the impressing you're not that into him, especially when the friend is male.

sorry, i confused you, he isn't the going out to date type, i invited him to go, and he's not the jealous/needy type, so he's cool with my friend coming, maybe they'll become friends too

ok if you say so, but I think I and the majority of posters on this thread believe bringing a friend along will make things more awkward than less..

Yea a third wheel on a date, much less a first date, is pretty awkward. Especially since it's another guy you want to bring. Since youre 17, why not try starting with something super casual that won't put any pressure on the two of you. Something like getting together at a coffee shop and doing some homework, well you probably really won't be doing much homework but it's like an excuse to be together and get a conversation going. Another thing you could do is go out in a group setting, but if he doesn't really like to go out, then not sure he'd go for that.

Your friend James wants you for one. Trust me, no guy at that age wants to come on a date with you to be with another dude.

 

Second thing, if I went on a date with a girl and she brought another guy I'm definitely not going out with her again. At least you mentioned it to him, I'm surprised he agreed. I don't know the guy but I would bet everything in the bank that he's really not ok with that. You probably just caught him off guard.

 

But then again you are only 15.

First of all, the remark about the guy isn't true at all. While it may be possible you don't know whether this guy wants her or not so is absurd to say that just because he is going along on a date he wants her. Besides, if he wanted her why the hell is he going with her to a date with another guy.

 

Secondly, she is 17 not 15.
