First Date nerves!?

Question

I met a guy at a party a fortnight ago and I have a date with him on Thursday :) We're going to see the Xmas lights being switched on in Oxford Street, London (his idea). I kinda have 2 questions, firstly, what should I wear? As i presume we'll go to a bar/for dinner afterwards but it's gonna be blimming cold outside on Thursday night.

Also, I've not really been on a "date" as such before. I was with my ex from the age of 17 through to 23 and we never really "dated" as such, we went to college together and lived near each other so never really had dates, we more "hung about" together. My second question is therefore, how can i stop being so nervous about it and what should i expect from it?! Should I just chill out, take it as it comes and do what feels natural?

Answer 1

Oh i no how you feel!!Scary isnt it!! But thats a really nice idea of his to take you there dont you think?
Wear jeans maybe with some nice knee high boots over the top with a nice top,not too dressy as its only a thursday nite so no ones genna be to dressed up!!Just wear a warm jacket and take gloves and scarve if its really cold!!You can take them off then when you get to the bar!
Try not to be nervous,i just kept saying to myself 'so what if he doesnt like me its not as though hes the only man on the planet!!'And it true so just try and have fun and dont spend the whole time worrying about what he thinks of you!! So yeah like you said just chill out!! Your be fine!! I hope you have a lovley time x

Answer 2

hmmm well don't overdress and dont wear anything that you wont feel comfortable with. If its going to be cold out, then wear something warm. I doubt it that any other girl at the bar or wherever you're going would wear something that is anything but warm. Just dress up in something nice but warm at the same time. Maybe some jeans, a nice shirt and a coat. As for you being nervous. He probably feels the same way, if you like this guy then just chill and let him take control of your date....not too much though. Try to relax ....thats all....just breathe in and out...you'll see that its not that bad...when ur there

Answer 3

What to wear.......jeans, and a snuggly jumper with a coat that you can take off when you get inside. Nice and simple and does the job.

As for the date - just relax otherwise your gonna get yourself in a right old tizz. Dont think of it as a date just yet - think of it as going out to see the lights going on with someone else who wants to do that.

Sounds like his a bit of a romantic if your going to see the lights go on and if thats his idea then sounds like his original. At least its not a meal - where your compelled to talk - or cinema where you cant talk. I think the best thing to do is just go, relax, and have fun.

Answer 4

he is probably just as nervous!! bless! it is hard but he likes you enough to ask you on a lovely date.. so you are already half way in the door! don't panic and wear what you will feel comfy in! just try to make sure you are looking fab and feeling it too that will be a sure winner! good luckand have fun!x

Answer 5

bring a coat with you. wear something nice. remember, if this turns up to be a long relationship, he'll remember exactly what you wear that night. be yourself, listen and study him. find out what type of his first facade is (everyone will put up a front for the first date). but most important things of all. have fun; enjoy yourself.
