ive been crazy about this one guy at school for a while now. hes gorgeous and everyone wants him but no one ever seems good enough for him and no one asks him out cos most people assume hes taken. he knows i like him but for a while he didnt seem interested soo naturally i gave up, thinkin "why the hell would he want to be with me".. but recently he started acting differently and flirting with me and just seems really interested and then the other day he asked me out on a date. i was soooo shocked!!

im a bit of a worrier and have started gettin realy worked up about it. he knows i get nervous and hes pretty good at helping me out when i cant get a word out infront of him but im stil scared of being with him, just me and him. its got so bad i cant sleep anymore and then i start feeling sick and dont eat and now my mum thinks im ill and im not allowed out so i cant see him yet any way.... i dont know wether any one else gets this nervous but i really want to know how to calm down because im starting to get ill from nerves :/ i think i just need to get this over with but untill i start sleeping and eating properly i cant see him...

thankz x

Love_is_all_youu_need agony auntOh, I know the feeling love.

I'm the same whenever I go on a date! I can't offer you a solution, but I find that it helps to exercise before you go on your date, which will release your nervous energy and make you feel calmer. A fast paced walk usually does it for me!

An alternative (which I shouldn't really be suggesting due to you being underage) but an alcoholic drink can help to calm nerves! A bit of brandy would be okay, you only need a tiny bit because its really strong! Don't go overboard if you do, just drink enough to give you the confidence and not to get drunk, that would be a bad idea!

Also, remember... Be yourself and when you're with him, forget that its a date - view it as 'getting to know' someone and having a nice time. Best of luck x

I totally know how you're feeling. If you like the guy you're going to be nervous. I remember my first date with a guy I really liked. I was so nervous. What I did to calm down was I sat down and I pictured the guy in my mind. That helped me but then again everyone gets rid of their nerves differently. Good luck.
