Hey There,
So earlier today I found myself wandering into my ex-place of work and spotted the girl I've been going on about for weeks clearing tables.
I headed over to speak to her, she gave me a big hug and we chatted for about 5 minutes while she worked.
As I left I asked her if she fancied a drink tomorrow after work. She um and erred and said she's check if she was free. "Yeah right - heard that one before." I thought and decided not to worry about it.
Just now, I checked my e-mails and she'd dropped me a message which went more or less along these lines.
"Heya. I finish at 4 tomorrow and I need to do some shopping first so meet you outside Weatherspoons after that?"
So without quite realising it, I've ended up organising a semi-date with somebody!
Cheering and whooping aside, mild terror has now set in. I have never been on a date in my life!!! So apart from the obvious which is "Be myself" anyone got any tips? I need to know first date etiquette inside and out by tomorrow night!!!
Update: I got it all wrong - it wasn't a date... she doesn't like me. Big whoop, my life is over, etc, etc... hurrah everybody.

Condoms! 
Can just think of obvious things like dress nicely, don't have bad breath so mints lol be polite, let the other person talk and don't be too quiet yourself
It's always best to try to act like you're with a friend (preferably a normal one
)
With dates I always think of what not to do aswell e.g don't act too desperate! act casual but as you said most obvious is BE YOURSELF!!

nah your be fine try not to panic, before you go out have some things plannned to talk about. you will feel nervous on the first date, its normal.
Relax. Buy her a drink. Don't try to be funny.
i'll answe that with a question.
if your not trying to **** her, how will she know if you like her? hhmmm

What to do? Don't think about it too much, go and HAVE FUN.
'ettiqiute'? What are you going to see your grandmother or somthing?

Pay for her first drink at least.
Just chill chat be yourself!
Pay for at least the first couple of drinks; I believe couples should generally go halves on dates, but if you're trying to make a good impression as a potential boyfriend, spending a little cash is a good way to show you do see it as a date, rather than just a meeting of friends. My boyfriend didn't pay on our first date, and I didn't realise it was a date until he tried to take my clothes off afterwards
Don't rush the physical side of things. Flirt verbally and see what the signs are before you think about holding hands/kissing/etc. And no matter how well it's going physically, don't initiate sex, even if you think she'll say yes - even if she does want some casual fun, it might hinder your chances of becoming boyfriend and girlfriend. And more likely she'll be really offended and think you're only after one thing.

Gum and mints, gum and mints, and money. And dress smart but not over the top. And shower. And bring your phone, keys, etc. Its funny what you might forget if your nervous for a date... like her name
DON'T: talk about past girlfriends or how desperate you are, get too heavy-handed and talk about marriage kids or how you've never met a girl like her and would love to be with her forever, try and get her in bed or make too many moves on her if she seems dis-interested.
DO: buy her at least one drink if you can afford it - it's just sweet and makes it seem like you care, make eye contact and just be yourself
.
Enjoy.

Sorry, I talk like an increadibly middle class conservative ****. I'm not! Honest!
Well it is all good to have manners, but don't come over all calculating, it should be natural. It's not like you're in any formal situation, quite the oppsite.
