I'll try and keep this short.
I'm going on a second date with this girl tomorrow night.
First date went very well and it ended by me giving her her kisses on her cheeks.
Today we were talking on msn messenger and I told her that my father gets hockey tickets and I invited her to come the next time he gets some.
I told her she'd "get to see me yell at the referees. When it comes to watching or playing sports I'm very competitive."
She replied by saying "You don't seem like that. You seemed like Mr. Nice Guy, cooperative and helpful"
I went on to say: "Some people say it's how you play the game...I say you play to win lol that may be wrong to some people but that's the way I am"
She replied something like: "well as long as you're having fun and if having fun is winning for you, then win"
I don't want her to think that I'm not a helpful/cooperative guy or not Mr. Nice Guy. I know I'm reading too much into this but I need words of encouragement, cause I like her.

Relax. She's just being nice. She's just telling you that you seem to be a really nice guy and she herself just doesnt want you to think that you would have a bad impression on her just by being "so into hockey"
Just be yourself it will all work out. Besides, its a hockey game, if she will come with you to see it i bet she wont be expecting the place to be as silent as the church right?
Good luck!

Your competitive nature is only a small part of what makes up who you are. Sure, it's a dubious behavior - so just emphasize or call attention to the other parts of your personality. You sound like a thoughtful young man and caring enough to be concerned about her impression of you. So, just bring up other stuff - like your humor, or your hobbies and interests - I'd stay away from family relationships, religion and politics though. Touchy subjects! Just keep being yourself, being honest, and straight forward and you'll be fine. If it's meant to be, it will be! Next time, a short, but sweet gentle kiss on the lips would be nice!

You are reading way too much into this. Relax. If you are a nice guy, she will see that as she spends time with you. What you said to her is in no way a bad thing and I cant imagine that she thinks of you differently now. Dont worry so much. Just be yourself because that's all that you can be.

Don't worry too much about it. Just remember that you cannot yet be with her the same way you would be with your Dad or your guy friends. It's still a date and so take it easy. If she is too concerned about your behaviour, she may be an uptight type of girl and that means STRESS in a future relationship! Good luck!

Your reading too much into it. I think she just discovered that there are more sides to you than just being a helpful, cooperative guy. Everyone learns more about the person they are seeing as they get to know each other. You can be competitive and still be the nice guy you are. Don't worry.

I think she was a bit weird saying that. Just be yourself. There's nothing wrong with getting into a game and shouting at a refree, you are allowed to let your hair down and have fun.. You seem like a lovely sweet guy so just be natural and she will see that.

I would tell you just watch what you yell at the refs. Do not yell anything bad or bad lanuage. And still treat her like a women, help her to the seat offer her something to drink or eat...and watch her body lanuage or her comments...she may not enjoy hockey as much as you if she does not seem to be enjoying it after the first quarter...offer to leave or tell her thanks for watching this with me I know you do not like it that much we will do something that you want later. Then give her a kiss on the back of the hand

There's nothing to worry about. Please don't based your relationship on how you react to sporting events. It sounds to me that you like to play hard. That isn't a bad thing it's perfectly normal when it comes to sports. Don't beat yourself up over this but you just enjoy the sport. And by any means hockey isn't for sissies. Good luck on the second date!! It seems to me that she likes you too.

Show her that you are a nice guy. You are reading too much into it. Just be yourself at the game. You shouldn't change for anyone :)
