First Date Panic Attack?
Uhm ok, here’s how the story goes… Dec 19 of Friday, i borrowed my crush’s Santa hat during lunch, i snuck a tiny teddy bear in it then returned it to her without saying a word, i stepped away for a couple of seconds then bid her merry X-mas.
Later that afternoon, i was sulking coz i didn’t gave her the cake i baked for her, but, that afternoon she approached me and i was like "oh god no, she’s holding the teddy bear, please oh please not" and then she asked me if i want to go out. and i was like "WT*" i couldn’t believe it, so yeah i said yes of course but she said after the holiday season, i gave her my number, but i made 1 digit mistake (yeah, am not good with numbers, so sue me) so i couldn’t contact her over the holidays (WAAAH) but i did gave her the cake, pineapple flavor and baked it myself ^.^
But either way, am preparing for our first date, so far i got these things planned:
Bring flowers and/or candies
Take her out to lunch/supper (not dinner, too late)
Watch a movie: Twilight, or some other chick flick
i can’t think of anything else or an exact place to go
i live in San Francisco, am pretty new here
she’s the first girl to ask me out (and even if i asked, she’s the first one that said yes)
and i want to make this first date great so she’ll like me
please, i need more advice
like:
What to talk about:
What to do to impress her out of the ordinary
and all that stuff
AAAACK!
I got no car, am 16, she’s 17 and yeah….
I am from the Bay Area. San Francisco has so much to do. Candies and flowers are too much. First dates should be memorable. There are some fun places you could go to: the Zoo, Pier 39, Ghiradelli chocolates, Union Square has alot to see. The bridge walk is long, but it is memorable. (kinda windy). Or maybe go on a walk and find some place that is unique and make it "your place." Bring a camera, if you want and catalog your day with her.
First off, if she asked you out, she may already like you! Things to talk about include asking her questions about herself! What does she like to do? where is her family? Talk about school, job, places she likes to visit. Once she starts talking about herself, you can find other things about her that you didn’t know and more conversation will follow. Don’t think that you need to buy her everything in the world either. It is cute at first, but guys will have empty wallets and you won’t be able to go on too many dates if this happens. haha.
Most importantly don’t try to act like your suave. If you act like someone else, it will probably freak her out or make her laugh. If she does laugh, laugh with her.
I hope this helps you and that you both have a fun time in SF. Gosh I miss it! I’m in windy chicago now. haha. Have fun and do tell how it went! bye now!

no flowers/candies.Just dinner,or lunch whatever.Dress up but not too official.
Don’t be nervous,dont be too fun,neither too serious.Comliment her twice in the beggining ,then say smth like i love ur blouse/jeans/earings in the middle. When she talkes listen carefully don’t miss anything.Don’t talk about other girls or exes until you were married before(hope not),don’t ask her about her exes.After walk her to her car,no kisses maybe a hug.Make sure you mention about next date during dinner.Later you can text her something like"Thank you for a wonderful nite.I had tons of fun!".Call her very next day,don’t go with a stupid 3 day rule and set up the next date.
