Anyway I'm stressing out what to do, as it is or isnt a date and I don't know how to act like it is, or make her know, and then what I do as a result. Help! Please Reply to this Question Share |

First of all you need to relax. Be yourself around her, no need to put on a show and pretend to be someone you're not.
I would consider inviting her over for steak more of like a casual date. A little more fancy, because you will be serving steak. I'm assuming you're the one cooking? Definitely bust out the fine linens, nice china, and a nice shirt to make it a classy, relaxed date.
Is she driving over, or are you going to pick her up? At the end of the night, be polite and walk her to her car, or door. Thank her for dining with you, you enjoyed her company and would love to go out again sometime soon. Then call her within 3 days to schedule date number 2.
Not that hard, try not to over think things and just go with the flow.

First off: Take a couple of deep and slow breaths lol. Anyway, listen to the cliche, and be yourself. Whenever I start panicking about hanging out with a new girl, I think of just having fun. That's all there is to it. I'm guessing you dont know much about her, so have fun and listen! Don't think about what you're going to say next. The next sentence coming out of your head doesn't have to sweep her off her feet. I've done that in the past and it doesn't help at all. If you listen, all the right words will come to you. Most of all have fun and stretch. I tend to be stiff around new women.
