I’d hate to english this thread any further, but depending on your roster and taking into account injuries and 1 game suspensions from previous game red cards, it is possible to start with a 9 player lineup.
I hope she’s comfortable with me, she acted like that when school was still in session. But again, the whole doubting thing is bringing me down a lot. 
Kit: Any other female tips?
=)
confidence is extremely attractive.
just don’t get ‘****y’ … I know it’s a fine line, but be sure of yourself, don’t waffle, and take thought of her needs first (and how your actions will affect her) …
Rev
What he said. 
Just be natural and yourself. Cheesy but true.
Taking thoughts of her needs first, isn’t that what I’m suppose to do?
=)
It’s the little things that she’ll notice too. I know there’s the whole “women prefer bastards” line, but what most of us want is a guy who makes us laugh and feel good about ourselves.
Maybe that’s where I’ve been going wrong - picking the bastards. :sure:
m8. stop stressing. really… asking and taking other people’s advice is pointless… just be natural man. she’ll appreciate it 
^^ yes, I know that was advice… but it was kinda… anti-advice advice :beam:
Making her laugh is no problem usually…online that is. But it seems like all my laughing material is gone, she basically knows me better than I know myself.
=)
Asphalt: I’ll remember to be myself. I don’t know why, with the other 3 girls I’ve gone out with, I’ve never had this problem.
=)
Don’t be an Alan Alda…
Thinking of her needs is important, but becoming a “sensible, thinking man” can get you permanently into the “friend zone.”
Confidence in who you are, and what you stand for is very attractive. Thinking you know everything about everything is not.
If you eat dinner, offer her the salt first… open her doors for her, if she is cold, offer her your coat.
If she looks offended at this, stop immediately.
Do not try to impress. that is the most common bad move.

Well, if I get into a relationship, shouldn’t her needs be even more important? I don’t think I want to be in the friend zone though neither.
Do not try to impress. that is the most common bad move.
Very true, well, I hope. Because I don’t have much to impress. 
=)
Don’t start thinking like that. She wouldn’t have agreed to Sunday’s date if she thought you were a muppet.
Us girls are very picky like that. :beam:
women are such fickle … fellows… :-\
I’m sure Shakespeare said that… didnt he? 
Well Kit, I’m not sure if she even thinks it’s a date or just a “friendly gathering” I guess.
Normal girls would NEVER expect a guy to be this thoughtful as me.
=)
Play it by ear I guess. See how she acts and take your cue from her.
And yeah, we are fickle creatures.
Alrit, I’ll take your word Kit. Generally, does girls think about it this much? Am I just a weirdo.
=)
you’re just nervous m8. just stop worrying about it and see how it goes
We worry an awful lot more, trust me.
We spend a good few hours working out what we’re going to wear, how we’re going to do our hair, make-up… What we’re going to say, what <i>he’s</i> going to say, will he like us, will he think we’re funny, clever…
I get really nervous.
O great, thats like, 3 days to worrying left for me. I need to keep this off my mind.

Thats great news Kit. Fortunally, I don’t spend hours pondering on what I’m going to wear and makeup and such.
