I think Matt's being hopelessly optimistic. I think "keen" is many many steps too high! Well we're going out again tomorrow evening, I'll let you know what happens on Sunday. My plan is this:
1. Go out on saturday evening
2. Don't text her til sunday morning to find out what the score is. This way it might negate some of my already over-anxiety.
Well you know me :-D
Firstly I can assure you she's probably thinking much the same as you, with all the fears and the doubts.
The problem comes when you start thinking about them. Ignore them, assume that she is totally into you and go out and have a good time. Mikeymike says coffee, that's a really good idea... meet for about half an hour have a coffee... then suggest the pub... have a few drinks there, make sure you are paying the whole time.... then suggest a meal, which is great if you are in a gastropub (weatherspoons etc...) as you can order a bunch of fun side orders like chips/potato wedges.
Make sure that you pay for everything.
Keep the conversation flowing at all times, avoid the subject of sex until you know her better. If she talks, shut up imediately and then do all that you can to keep her talking, a few leading questions based on what she's just said always go down a treat.
when stuck, ust use a witty anecdote about your life, always be self depreciating.
But most of all, Have fun... or it's going to suck for both of you.
