Be yourself.
be yourself
I suppose that's really the only thing to be said. You do have to be yourself. But I'll humor you and try to elaborate.


The first date is used as a sort of introductory to that person. You're going to want to ask questions about that person. Likes, dislikes, history, aspirations, etc. Search for a common bonding point like music or movies. That will make you both feel a lot more comfortable with each other.


I also wouldn't recommend a movie as a first date. That screams make out and you won't be learning much then. Also, don't allow yourself to be taken advantage of. Not cool.
Relax. Naturally, it sounds like you are going to be nervous, and of course even though you don't want to just hear ';be yourself'; that is kind of hard when you are really nervous. But you want to show who you are, you don't just want things to go good and for you to kick it off, you want things to go good because you are compatible, and you will only know if you are if you are able to show yourself. So, just relax, you don't want to be too quiet and not show who you are, but at the same time, you don't want to ramble on. Actually pay attention and participate in conversation. Conversation is the most important part of the first date
