I had my first date last Friday and I just wanted to know if anyone would like to share some ideas of how to take the stress off of dating and prom. Any fantastic date ideas would be awesome, too. (Sorry i have two of the same topics. redface Disregard this one and click on the other one. I was having some computer issues xp )

Well I would go to someplace I really like...
for example a themepark or something like that ^_^ because that way there is fun and enough time to talk and get to know the person you are on a date with.

Hmm, meditation really helps just before a date. I have a tendency to have a lot of energy when going on a date (especially with someone I think has potential) and I've heard that intimidates guys. So meditating for a few minutes just before going out can really help bring the anxiety and energy down a bit.
Try to think of questions you'd like to ask your date ahead of time. Too many times I didn't put any thought into that and I'm awful at thinking up questions on the spot, and it wasn't until afterwards I thought, "Oh, I should have asked this and this! And what about this?" But that's what second dates are for, too. =)

Dates that I've found very fun were going to an arcade, on a hike, or to a museum. Museums are great because they're educational, you get a lot of opportunities to talk, and if it's a particularly boring museum it gives you an opportunity to see how the person you're with is able to make ordinary situations and make them fun. Same goes for hiking.

look... i'm a guy and if i am even close to the same as the other ones (no comments shaz )

if i'm like the other ones at all. just remember that they are just as nervous as you are. so just have fun. show that you're having fun and the guy will calm down to and all will go well.

so i've seen.

do something both people enjoy. heck, i used to go to book stores for dates sweatdrop still do now with my wife. and if youre still at the age where group dating is "supposed" to happen, do something fun as a group. theres a place near where i am that does scrapbooking for groups. that or go out to dinner and a movie.

1) Plan on something to do - a museum, a movie, an activity. It gives you an experience in common which makes conversation easier.

2) Romance is built on friendship. Seek first to find if you can be friends. More will come, or not. Don't weigh yourself down with Expectations for either of you.

3) The right person is the person who is looking for you. Even if you do something embarrassing (which we all do - hey, we're human!), the right person will not let themselves be "scared away." You can't miss the Love of Your Life because of a moment of Foot In Mouth Syndrome.

Two words: Group date xD
It might take some stress off you and you might feel better with more people you know. But dont forget to give some attention to your date as well!

I don't have so much experience(I've only been on two group dates sweatdrop ), but I've found that at the end of the date, it's really fun and bonding to play games(card games, board games, etc.). It's really fun! ^^ You get to know them a bit more, and it doesn't get awkward if there's no conversation... ^^
