[quote=Anonymous]It kills me. Invariably, I bomb on first dates with the people I'm most eager to make a good impression on. The date starts, I'm immediately smitten, and I just bring too much energy. An aura of "have to hit a home run" envelops over me and takes what is typically a witty, charming, and slightly sarcastic sense of humor and turns me into an intense overly-talkative salesman/resume pitcher. Of course the opposite is true when she walks in the door and I'm "meh" about it. In those cases, I'm immediately at ease knowing I have zero interest and I hit it out of the park with my normal laid back persona.

It sucks! I leave the dates I want to continue to get to know realizing that I've exhausted them and there likely won't be a second date. I know they say practice makes perfect, but I'm pretty experienced and still can't seem to get into the right state of mind when I really want to make a good impression. It's basically feeling extra pressure to perform since only 1/20 candidates might fit the "super excited" mold. [/quote]
