I think all you're doing is putting WAY to much pressure on yourself... you're putting too much weight on this relationship because you enjoy her so much. Just back off and let things happen naturally... you're over-thinking it.

I agree, this is exactly it. I just cant seem to shake the feeling when I am around her. Its one of the reasons we dont talk on the phone very often. When we are not out, I try to keep my distance so that I dont appear too needy. I send her a text on the day after she plays softball to see how the game was, I call to chat and ask her to a movie or dinner, but thats about it.
Re: How to calm nerves shockedandamazed: chaotic - I recently met someone as well and we went out on our first date earlier this week - he was very nervous and did alright considering it was a first date AND he is younger than me. Toward the end of dinner, I point blank asked him if he was nervous about the date and he told me he was and I assured him again that the date was going well and that he did a great job of planning. I told him to relax.
Our second date is tomorrow and I hope to god he relaxes some more. He has had no problem going in for kisses, but I'm sorry, but the man has to be the aggressor at times. I am into this guy, but if he continues to be nervous around me it will freak me out and I can't spend another relationship trying to assure the guy that everything is OK (this is how my marriage was).
Relax chaotic, she is just a human being too. She is not perfect.

oh thank you thank you thank you thank you :) ;D ;D
a man has to be confident and shouldn't hesitate ;D agressiveness can be bad although women like it too, i'd say confidence is good
