First Dates Suck

I absolutely hate first dates. The awkwardness, the nerves, and all that crap. Tonight was no different. But as soon as we said hello, all that crap went away.  It was a lovely evening of chatting over drinks, getting to know each other, and telling terrible jokes that made us both laugh. I was called beautiful and gorgeous countless times tonight and I didn't even have a drop of makeup on. It was casual, but I felt like the prettiest girl in the room. We both agreed that a second date would be happening, and I look forward to that. My smile is plastered on and won't come off, no matter how hard I try. I'm definitely taking things slow right now, but I like the path I'm on!
