Is this how people normally feel before a date?

I was so nervous yesterday. I was nauseous nervous. I do not get nauseous nervous before dates. Is this how people normally feel before dates? Because if so that's horrible. Being that stressed is not fun. I was worried that the date could be awkward or that at some point he would bring up that I dropped off the face of the planet but I was worried for nothing. There wasn't any awkwardness at all and he even said "next time....." meaning second date?

He thanked me for coming out which is when I had to blurt out "you shouldn't be thanking me! I was a total bitch last summer, I can't believe you even responded!" *slow clap*

There was no reason for him to be this nice and give me a second chance, but he did.  I will be kicking myself in the butt for all eternity.

p.s. I promise this blog is not going to turn into a dating blog.
