does she know this is your first date? i hope so - i finally managed to get my first date at age 23 (yep, low self-esteem ain't fun) and i don't think the girl was aware of my inexperience, and when i finally got out on the date i creeped her out aplenty and she wanted nothing more to do with me. :)

my second date, with another girl (a year later), was far more successful as i made sure not to fail to inform her of my lack of dating. :)

That's a valid point.....avoid talking about things like disasters with ex'es, or previous dates, or lack of dating experience. Women seem to tend to like confidence in men.

Unfortunately, it seems a fair number of gamers have confidence issues. I've had guys in my group creep out the non-gamer women in my life by making comments about how nice it was to meet some nice women, that they've never had a date, or kissed a girl etc. When coming from a 30-year old man that a woman has just met, it's inappropriate, and can make people uncomfortable.

Stick to positive things. And be yourself. I you're interested i nher, be sure to ask questions about her. And most of all, good luck! :) The dating game can be both very fun, and exasperating at the same time.

Ha, finally got some internet access.

Well, we finally went out last night, and had a great time :) We went to a diner to eat, went too a movie (the Illusionist, really good, she liked it a lot) then went out to a coffee place for some tea, and finally stopped by a fiend of hers for a bit sho she wanted to introduce me too. He friend is a professional painter and sculpter, and she gave me some clay to work with when I said I had always wanted to try sculpting. She apologized for postponing so lonh, she had a bad time this week (but said thet last night was the high point of her week :))

Shes going away for the weekend, but we are going out again on monday, and then Im coming back down to Pittsburgh in a few weeks and were going too go out again!


So, I think it went well :) I got a hug and another date, so Im guessing it went well, at least.

Congrats!
