Question: I just agreed to go on a...

Good Luck! Be yourself and don't let your fears get in your way. :)

when i met my bf for the first time it was sort of a blind date that we set up coz we wanted to meet after chatting lol
he brought his best mate with him so there was 3 of us so there was always something happening/someone talking so there were no awkward silences :)
i was nervous, but we had fun hanging out and going to the pub
dress normally, but not scruffy or dirty lol
and good luck :)

Yep, I agree... go, have fun, and don't over think the situation.. if it turns into something, great..
if not, you lost nothing.. go for it girl..... I would....

Indeed, you have nothing to lose! So give it a go! Don't put your expectations to high, 'cause then you might be dissapointed. I would say, just keep all options open: it could be something more, or it couldn't be. But don't think scenario's on forehand, 'cause it never happens like that anyway. Just go with the moment, and cliche as it is: be yourself! Don't pretend to be someone else, in order for him to like you. Try to tell about yourself and be sure to be interested in what he says too.

Go! Make it fun, don't worry about making everything perfect. What's the worst that could happen? I met my boyfriend that way and he is the person that I plan to marry. It was nerve racking, but think of what you could miss out on!

I went on one before and the guy I went with my friends suggested was very nice to me. We went out with my friends again a few days later and ended up going out in that same day. That was the frist Blind Date I've ever been out on. All I did was act like myself and didin't worry about a thing. I figured if my friends knew him it would be okay.
I wouldn't worry about it too much because, your girlfriend's husband knows him and they wouldn't want you to go out with a total jerk or anythin. Well I hope this helped and I hope you have a good time on you Blind date.

There's nothing wrong with a blind date. I have gone on one, even though it didn't turn out the way I wanted, it was worth it. The reason mine didn't work out was because I was just out of a heartbreaking relationship, and one of my guy friends who said I deserved so much better, set me up with his close friend. We went out, had a good time, he liked me a lot, I though he was a complete gentleman, but I wasn't ready. The point is, your girlfriend's husband wouldn't mention this guy to your girlfriend if he was a womanizer or a bad guy, but you never know. This could also be the man of your dreams. Either way, this is much safer than going out with a complete stranger, who none of the people close to you know.

what is a blind date?

I have just been gaining experience with this myself, and believe me it gets easier with time and each experience. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. This is an opportunity to make a new friend. If you look at the situation with this attitude instead of pinning all you hopes for your future happiness on it then you will probably feel more relaxed and allow him to feel the same. Face it, the chances that this person is going to be an important part of your life aren't any greater just because your friends have set you up. And remember, just because your friends like him doesn't mean you will and if you feel uncomfortable and want to leave, then leave.
