first date
16/f I recently asked a guy out to the movies. It's my first date and I'm super nervous. I just need some advice. I know to not be nervous and to be myself and such... but what do I like DO on the date? Like when we're at the movies, do I just sit there and watch the movie? I don't want him to think I'm ignoring him! and what do you usually do afterwards, if I'm not comfortable eating in front of him, and we can't go back to either of our houses.... Please help! I will rate all advice. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

well for the movies you should like look at him a few times during it, and like make comments and laugh in a cutee way, if you really wann be flirty, throw some pop corn at him, for after, you guys could, well if your town has like benches and stuff, you could just like sit and talk, or you could go drive around, or walk around town and stuff, thats basically all I can say, hope I helped

When you go to the movie you really don't have to do anything. You can make comments on the movie if you find something funny. If it's a scary movie you can ask him to hold your hand (that's always something I enjoy hearing from girls). Really though, you don't have to do anything. If you talk too much it will upset the other people watching the movie. There really isn't much communication during a movie. That's the main reason I consider movies a bad date, at least for people who are just starting to date.
Afterwards there are lots of things you can do. My best dates ever often consisted of just going for a walk, or you could find a nice place and just sit down and talk. It doesn't have to involve eating. Dinner and a movie is just the very stereotypical date. If he wants to go out to eat, you should go with him, but if he doesn't, then I would steer away from it.
In the instance he is hungry, try to order something small and not messy if it makes you embarrassed to eat in front of him. I always feel awkward when I order food and girls don't. At the very least order a milkshake or something. If you order something small and he orders something big, try to eat slowly so you don't finish way before him. It makes me feel strange also when a girl finishes eating long before me.
Hope this helps. Try thinking outside the box for dates. Weird dates are fun and interesting.

What I would do is just have small talk with him during the previews. You can comment on the upcoming movies they display or just ask him little questions about himself that will allow you to get to know him better. If you're having difficulty figuring out something to do afterwards you can probably bring it up then. Ask him what he thinks is the perfect end for your date and see what he says. If you're uncomfortable eating infront of him, you can always go for something small like icecream or french fries. That may not be as "look at how much I can eat" :) Also, feel free to watch the movie, especially if it's a good one. That way you'll have a conversation starter for when the movie is over. Feel free to comment on the things during the movie that make you laugh or scared or contemplative, but don't do it to the extent where you feel like you're talking to whole time. Just relax, have fun and I'm sure you'll be fine.
Best wishes!
