Nervous but excited

Lookingforhope20100 profile image

So I'm going on my first date in a long time with a guy I met through a friend. I'm super excited but anxious I hate that feeling but I hard know this guy we talked for like 4+ hours yesterday he was easy to talk to so the conversation just flowed my anxious mind is telling me to cancel and coming up with a million what ifs. That and I'm weird spunky person like what if I scare him off or what if my ex tries to beat the crap out of him. What if he turns out to just like everyone else. But then I try to imagine the good things like what if he is funny and smart and kind what if it turns into a relationship. I mean the guy is trying here he wants to pick me up meet my mother and brother. He said he'd give my grandma a detailed list of our plans for the evening. He doesn't have kids but he is good with his niece and nephew or so my friend told me and then there is an age gap not the largest age gap I've had but most would judge he's 31 im 20 so I need some advice should I follow my anxious what if filled mind and cancel or should I go for and take a chance at something that could be really good.

Take the chance, you talked for a while, so he's not a total stranger, nothing to lose everything to gain!
