Any suggestions on how I should approach this situation and how I should introduce myself?thanks all!

My friend does that all the time, and I just go over like...I didn't even know ANYTHING. If he doesn't like me, oh well!

 Make light of the subject. Talk about how funny it is that you have people hooking you up when you don't even ask them to (say it with a funny tone, not seriously). Ask her what your friend mentioned of you, and then laugh at the situation and just say you hope she's right. Then just start talking to your date as if it were any other date.
It's not awkward if you don't make it awkward. Just be yourself, because she was already told what kind of guy you were, and she liked it!
