Nervous for a date

I'm feeling both excited and nervous about this upcoming date—it's my first one in many years. I genuinely believe this person could be the right one for me. However, I can't help but have some apprehensions that I might mess things up.

I'm nervous for you having read this. You are already making certain comparisons as in this one perhaps being "the right one" having yet to have gone out.
Just my .02, but if it were me, I would be coming to no conclusions until waaaay after that first date----and I'm talking months.
Examining this after standing back and examining your post, my first thought obviously is that you are both nervous and anxious, as you state, it being your first date in years. If I am going to offer any advice, it is that you just go out with your eyes open, and with no other goal than to enjoy this evening. And one other thing....please don't make the mistake of grilling them from your mental checklist, that would be the worst thing you could do.
Relax, go out and enjoy yourself, but do so just the intrinsic value of enjoying the evening and each other at face value.
If it's meant to continue....it will.

@Freeranger This can be the best piece of advice as I do find similar pattern of behaviors of me. Sometimes I do forget to enjoy the moment.

chances are you might not like this person like that at all. if you do click like that then theres no way youre going to be able to "mess things up". so relax and go to have a good time no matter how it goes in the end.

@Penny I really think I will like this person, but I will keep what you said in mind. Any tips to find out their true intentions of me?

@christylee i think youre overthinking lol. seems a bit early to be trying to figure that out. meeting them will show their intentions i guess.

@smiler2012 This is how most of my fumbling happens. Would help if I know how to recover

I basically never go on them, but did go on one a little while back and it was actually easy though nothing came of it due to another situation which arose. Just be calm, friendly and attentive
