Ok so I'm going on a blind date today except I know who I'm going with and I know what he looks like, and he is smoldering hot. Whereas I am so-so.
My friend and his girlfriend wanted to go doubled-dating so she picked smolderinghot guy and my friend picked me.
I really want him to like me though, I'm a little shy. Does anyone have any tips on how to deal with a really hot, really popular guy? My friend's girlfriend says he's really sweet but I'm intimidated.
So any advice other than just be myself? Thanks in advance.

Also if you go into this seeing him as really hot and really popular you are ignoring the person beyond the outside. Talk to him like you would to your friend, make jokes, ask him about himself, his likes/dislikes. The key is to keep it really light and casual. Do not talk about serious stuff!!
I have poled most of the teens I work with and asked what they look for in a girl and 95% of them said that while yes they had to be attracted the most important thing is sense of humour and the ability to make others laugh! So Chillax and make it funny, and light!
