first date nerves

I recently posted about how awful OLD is but I;ve actually ended up with a date (after I deleted the app!). Anyway, I am already sick with nerves and its not until Tuesday. I know its normal to be nervous but I've not been on a 'date' with anyone in many many years. I have so many ridiculous anxieties about it. I worry about walking into the pub and having to look around for him. I worry about not actually recognising him. I worry if I get there early to avoid looking for him, he will do the same and we will both be really early and look stupid. I worry I will take one look and think "what the hell have I done". I worry that I don't drive and have a drink but he's not drinking and I look like some sort of lush.
I mean, you get my drift.... I have 3 days of this torment to go.

Thank you. I'm so pleased I did it, even if it didn't work out. Its actually made me realise I'm happy single at the moment anyway.
And I've got that 'first date' dread out of the way.

Congratulations! I'm sure he was just as nervous. You don't have to justify not wanting to date someone without a job. He should be looking for employment first, then a girlfriend.
