        Location: In the land of peanuts and cotton | I have my first real date tonight and it's a blind date. We have been talking for about a week. Ok so you know the nervous feeling you get right before you run? Well this is 10x worse. I'm so nervous that I couldn't even nap earlier. I don't know why I'm so nervous. I 100% trust this guy so I'm not worried about him doing anything stupid. But I can't settle my nerves. Any suggestions? None of my friends could say anything to help me and I can usally settle my own nerves but not today. |

Is she old enough to even buy wine? |

I dunno. She's old enough to go out on a blind date. I assumed she was old enough to buy wine.
If not, then still do the rest - just without the wine. Dancing is an excellent stress reliever. |

I meant shake off the nerves, not the underpants. Sheesh. |

Well then, I guess that leaves out a shot of whiskey. Put your ear phones on and your favorite tunes and just relax. It will all be fine. |

        Location: on my horse | Huge deep breathing exercises! Have fun and tell us how it goes!! I am the most awkward person ever when dating (probably why I'm usually single lol) but I open with some kind of ice breaker that laughs off my awkwardness or just be honest and let my date know that I'm nervous and feel super awkward and then say something along the lines of so let's just go have fun! |

        Location: In the land of peanuts and cotton | We are going on our 4th date Saturday. And he's going with me to the races Sunday. He rode horses with me Tuesday and he took off work to go with me to a barrel race the next Saturday. :) he's kinda perfect which sorta scares me but I'm gonna go with it.
