It’s totally normal to be nervous and excited. People like to talk about themselves, so if you are genuinely interested in her and ask some questions about her interests it will give you a chance to get to know her and will make her feel good about herself. Focus on trying to make the evening pleasant for her. You’ll get your mind off yourself and you’ll probably both have a better time. Try to think about what you have in common. Shared interests make for lively conversation. Also, keep it light! Don’t get into deep heavy topics, like your childhood phobias and all the hurts you’ve been through. As far as clothing goes, it depends on what’s commonly done where you live and in your crowd. Some wear suits, some a dress shirt and slacks, others more casual. It depends how yeshivish you both are and where you’re going.
