Don't think of it as 'your first date' (and hence, put so much importance on it) and just see it as a normall evening out - well, that would calm me down. :smile:

You will be fine as ur going to the cinema you don't have to say much just give off good body signals smile alot and tell a few jokes you will have a smashing time gl
I would say bring a book the way my mom always tells me to do when I have an exam...but that's not applicable in this situation is it? :P
yeh dont be so nervous because its probly not a biggie. first dates are just to get to know someone before you decide wether you want them or not.
I recommend Ice Age 2
And don't be back too late, Thursday is a school night remember!

ok i'm a girl though so i don't think i'll be doing the whole yawning thing and also i'm 20 so i don;t need to worry about the school the next day thing, i no i'm old but i've just never been on a date before :redface:
Hey you ended up with a date so the hard part is done! I'd just say try to relax and enjoy the company of the person you are with & spending time with them. Clearly they wanted to be on this date too otherwise it wouldn't be happening. Now go munch popcorn & then have a good long chat about the movie afterwards..it's always nice to have someone to discuss films with!
well at least you wont have to worry about making conversation...unless the film's boring!
just chill and be yourself- you're both there to get to know eachother better.

i'd say go for a drink together first, there's nothing worse than getting to the cinema and both sitting there absalutely paranoid about your every move... having a drink will help you relax and break the ice

Snogging in the cinema is cheesy full stop, so leave any smooching until the films finished! Put aside a few hours for a bit of pampering, do you nails, have a face pack, a long shower, to help you relax and make sure you feel your best! Apart from that don't worry, just sit back have a natter and enjoy the film. What are you going to see? And don't worry about having nothing to talk about after. Just talk about the film under you feel more comfortable.

Are you the 20-yr-old anonymous who posted a while back with the overprotective parents who won't let you date? If so, congrats. :smile: Hell, if not, congrats anyway. Just be yourself and things will go fine.
