I am about to go on a date and I'm a bag of nerves. I am a classic AFC and have dipped my toe into the 'Game' world (reading only) and I don't like this nervy feeling. I'll explain the date later, but more importantly, how the hell do I snap out of this? It's crippling my (non-existant) dating life.

EDIT THANK YOU guys, this helped. I read your comments on the way although - humiliating admission, this was Speed Dating. I can explain my patheticness as I've blogged the fucker - http://ihatetheearth.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/dating-on-steroids.html

I am humbled though. I am only just dipping my toe into this world. Thanks again.
