TIPS ON HOW TO FIX A BAD FIRST IMPRESSION?!


Question Posted Wednesday March 19 2008, 4:40 am

i met this guy online and we decided to meet in person.
unfortunately, he's gorgeous, articulate, intelligent, interesting, athletic, and into all the music i'm into.
however, he is older than me and i'm worried that i came off as immature and dorky.
we just met yesterday, i haven't talked to him about how he thought it went yet, but he said he might see me again.
i'm just worried because i've never been even kind of involved with a guy i'm that attracted to because i always think they're out of my league.
i'm a little stuck and don't know what to do here, someone give me some advice?

The harder you try, the more it is going to look like you are trying too hard, and that is never cool. Relax, and who cares if you are not perfect. Newsflash...either is he. No one is out of your league...that is ridiculous. You need to work on your self-esteem and believe in yourself. A guy, no matter how great he first appears, is still a stinky and simple creature at heart. You are the princess and he is the toad. This is your new mantra. Now, be the princess and don't chase him.

You may fix his impression of you but his first impression is just going to be his first impression. Sometimes it's actually better to see how wrong the first impression was. You can't be that out of his league if he is willing to meet you and such. All you can be is you. If at this point in your life, you aren't mature enough you just aren't. That is not a deal breaker though. Maturity is not just being wise or articulate though. Maturity can be having a caring heart and thinking of others and being strong. Just let your good qualities shine through. If this guy asked you to meet, he's attracted. It's that simple. Putyour fear aside, he already wants to kiss you.

Did you make a bad impression? You haven't said anything here that makes me think you did.

Look, if you came off as immature because you are younger then him, well, nothing you can do can change that. You ARE younger then him. You could try and pretend to be something you aren't, but that would just be lame and he'd probably see through it.

Don't let your nerves get you down. React to what he tells you thought, not your own swirling fears. There is nothing you can do but sit tight and enjoy your next conversation with a great guy.
