I'm in the 9th grade & this guy asked me to homecoming two days ago. I said I'd think about it but on Monday I know I'm going to tell him yes. & this is gonna be my first date. Ever. I know I should just be myself but I have no idea what to expect. Any tips, ideas or stories?

A guy's point of view. . . I remember my first date. Coincidentally it was my freshman homecoming dance, same as you. I knew the girl I asked from classes and study hall and such, but I was still nervous as all hell. I didn't know what to do or how to act or anything. It was the biggest surprise of my young life when she said she'd go with me. Anyway, on the date, things actually went very well. We danced, and talked about school, our families, TV shows, just what kids talk about, and ended up having a very good time; and no, nothing happened afterwards. When it was over, I couldn't believe how nervous I was.
What I'm saying is, he's probably feeling all of the same things you're feeling. So all I can say is just be yourself and you'll be fine.
Not to sound discouraging or anything, but it's not a good idea to go to a hotel with him afterwards.

On my first date I was *so* nervous. Now that I look back it was almost funny, but it certainly wasn't at the time. I learned that in order for me to not be so nervous, I needed to plan out a few things. Here are some things you should plan:
When to meet, where to meet, when to take pictures *yes please please take pictures- you will thank me*, if/when you are going to eat before hand (make it someplace really really cheap), if there are going to be any after-parties (don't get sucked into one you weren't planning to go to), and when you need to be home.
Once you get used to dating a bit, it will come much more naturally to you, and you can go with the flow, but I really think that planning things out made it seem a lot less *forced* and much more fun.
I hope you have a good time . . . remember he is nervous too, so you can spend time trying to make *him* feel not so nervous!

Covered up is sexier than not. Heels are a bad idea. Dance with the group occassionally. Be confident. Don't question yourself or his motives. ^_~ Don't ask, don't tell. Make sure you have someone available to drive you home if you need it. Good luck and have fun!

1. Just be you
2. Don't let him touch you on your no no spots.
3. Try not to be nervous. (Yeah right)
It's only a date and you will have many more of them in your life. Consider this one as practice.
