Well i don't know that much about him and previously on dates lets just say i suck at them.When i'm out with my friends im this bubbly outgoing kind of person who really never shuts up but when im on a date i become this totally different person. I'm shy, kind of quiet and quite paranoid too. I do like to talk to my friends because i know what to talk about as we share nearly all of the same interests but on a date exactly what is the topic of conversation? I really don't want to ask so many questions that he is put off by me or for him to thik that i'm being quite nosey. I don't want to ruin this date at all because i quite like him however im really worried that those awkward pauses are going to come and he's going to run a mile! I know not to talk about myself too much but how do we bring the subject round to him?

Don't be nervous, just be yourself.
I can understand your fears and your doubts, but remember, that listening is important, as well. Ask him questions about himself, and look him in the eyes and listen to what he's saying, with interest. A good listener is a priceless gem in my book.

If he asked you out on a date that means that he likes you already, so don't worry about doing poorly.
He is probably going to ask most of the questions, and all you will have to do is talk about yourself. Just make sure to ask him stuff once in a while, like if he asks you what your favorite kind of movies are, make sure you ask him what his kinds of movies are.
Don't talk about sex, politics, or religion, and you will be fine.
Good luck!
