Im having just a little bit of a confidence crisis.
I met a guy on a website ( not a dating one) about a month ago i think. We exchanged a few sporadic emails... for about 3 weeks.That sort of developed into daily emails and a couple of MSN chats.
Then he asked for my number on friday and if he could call me.
He did.
3 hours saturday.
couple of texts sunday and another 3 hour conversation
couple of texts last night and a hour long conversation.

We are meeting up in 10days time as im a little bit busy and wanted to appear to have a busy social life ( stupid i know).

We have swapped a couple of pictures, so we know what each other look like. and, he has called back ( what i mean is he hasnt been put off by anything idiotic i have said)

Thing is, he is actually nice. I really like talking to him, feels really comftable. hes got a really good job, no baggage and furniture from JOhn lewis. I suspect he buys nice ham and he loves m&S cupcakes. He sounds a little bit like will young without the lisp. Can you just tell im swooning already.

So, this morning i text him that i hope he has a better day today that yesterday ( he had a bad day at work) and he replied that it had already started better.......

I think he likes me, i just dont want to blow it.

Beacuse im not seeing him for 10 days im now thinking what if there is too much expectation and it all falls flat. Or what i look better in my pics than in rl ( they are recent pics.. but still, they are good pics of me, not ones where i look rubbish!)
I dont know what to wear. I dont know how to do my hair. I feel about as nervous as a 14 year old girl on her first date.

See, confidence crisis.
Not first man since i got divorced by a long shot. But def the first one where i REALLY like him....

ooohhhh, help!

Now here is a relationship dilemma I'd actually love to have! Go with it, he sounds lovely, and I bet he's as nervous as you. There's no way round the inevitably slightly awkward first meeting, one of my friends got herself in such a state on her first date she actually threw up in his car.. they are now married and blissfully happy
