date check list:
-shave your legs. not sure why, just do it! you'll feel better
-dress casual, a comfy blouse with clean lines and nice pair of black jeans will do
-don't bring luggage. a small purse is enough.
-don't bring baggage. resist the temptation to compare.
-don't talk about past boyfriends: a potent mood killer.
-do talk about interests: hobbies, sports, food, what's happening in the world of cardiology today...
-don't sound like a know-it-all. believe me, you don't!
-do watch your potty mouth. a lady is a lady is a lady...
-resist that bean burrito...you know what will happen if you don't...
-if you're just going out for drinks...don't order shots of Cuervo 1800. yes, i know it goes down smooth, but stick to something less aggressive...say, a glass of wine or imported beer (get a glass for that!)
-buy him a drink too. (a sign of class)
-take a handful of quarters for the parking meter just in case. (another sign of class)
-let him kiss you if it feels right.
-DON'T INVITE HIM IN. it's a freakin' first date. haven't you learned your lesson girl?
-if the night is failing miserably...try to make light of it, joke...and keep good spirits...afterall, this may be the future doc that has to save your ass when they wheel you in on a stretcher...
-don't be afraid to be a geek/nerd/homebody...you'd be surprised how many share your secret world.
-don't lie to yourself. if a second date isn't really what you want, plan how to let him down easy. there's no point dragging it out.
