    Ask her for her cup size to get that out of the way. Don't want to wait too long to get the deal breakers settled.

    Tell her you're on clutchfans and she's yours. Then ask her what he wants for breakfast.

    It's more about the way she feels talking to you than what you actually talk about. You could spend the whole date talking about Nickelodeon's Doug vs Disney's Doug, and as long as you both really enjoyed the conversation and company, the date could be a success.

    Be able to carry a conversation!! It's tragic how many people struggle with this. Listen. Let her talk. Don't interrupt. Look genuinely interested in everything she is saying.Ask her open ended questions stemming from things she's already talked about, but don't forget to talk about yourself too (although she should be talking more than you.) I hate thinking, "All I did was talk about myself, yeah he prompted it with questions, but I hardly learned anything about him because he wouldn't talk about himself."

    You met her online right? I've never met anyone with the intent to date from online, but have met a lot of friends. The first few minutes are key. Be confident, even if you're faking it. Have a sense of humor & break the ice. If you're comfortable, she'll be comfortable. Greet her like you already know her. Don't reference her profile much or at all. That's just weird.

    Good luck.

    You know, we could talk about Disney channel original movies for hours.
    Not sure if I can roll with The Olsen Twins though.

    it's all situational. you have to be able to read the situation and react accordingly. there is no "set conversation" to follow. and if you really had to ask this question on a forum, i wish you luck my friend.

    Inventory your home, apartment, room, or where ever it is that you live to locate your most prized collections. Baseball cards, action figures, comic books - You know, things of that sort. Bring the collection with you to the date, and break the ice by showing it to her.

    Also, be sure to tell her how special she is and how you don't just show your most prized collections to just anyone.

    but really though, you only need one and ONLY ONE thing to say to her on the date.

    "Does this rag smell like chloroform to you?"

    Thanks for the advice guys. I have a few more hours till the date. Another question I have is what I should order to drink at the coffee shop. I want to portray that I am a man but also sophisticated. They serve alcohol at the place, but I don't want to seem like an alcoholic. I don't really like coffee, so I thought maybe just a water. But water is kinda plain and might make me seem boring. Advice?

    Get some kind of coffee and force it down. Light roast so it will be easier.

    And right after you sit down from ordering the coffee, remark to her how it's crazy to think that someday you'll be proposing to her at that very spot.
