First date in years

Going on a date next week for the first time in a few years, met him through tinder a few days ago and he’s asked me out for drinks, I’m nervous but excited, just feel like I’ve forgotten how to date? 😂

Any advice I’d appreciate x

Be yourself and concentrate more on figuring out if you like him rather than if he likes you.
Don't get too drunk.
Make sure you feel confident in whatever you plan to wear.

All you can do is just be yourself. No pretense, no pretending. He either likes the real you or there's no future.

Also, don't drink too much! It might hamper you from spotting red flags or lead to making not so great choices. 😊

To add, be cautious about how much information you share, such as place of employment, where you live, etc. You need to get to know him before you get too personal.

Treat it as a pre-date - ie a meeting to see if you’d like to go on a date with him! No pressure just checking out that he matches up to his profile, that he can string a sentence together and that he’s not hosting a communist street party 🚩🚩🚩🚩

Go without any expectations and you’ll have a nice evening.

Questions to ask him on first date?
Don't look at it as 'making conversation'. What do you want to know about him?
