[quote=Anonymous]I totally agree with dating people that might not be 100% what you are looking for. I refused to ever date a smoker--never, ever going to happen after losing both my Grandparents to smoking related diseases. Then one day I was bored and removed the non-smoker filter on my profile. BAM, DH's picture comes up and he is SO CUTE!! I debate whether or not to contact him since--No dating smokers, ever!
I figured this online dating thing rarely works so what the hell, and contact him. 2 years later we were married LOL
(He has quit smoking, but has a few slips here and there.)

OP- as for your awkwardness, bring it up. Very casually, with a big sheepish grin,  just say, "I'm so bad a first dates. I'm so awkward and it just takes me a few times for the real me to come out." Most people will totally understand and agree with you. You can share awkward date stories and laugh. 
Also try to do dates where you are doing something--going to a lecture, riding bikes, etc. The dates where you just have to sit and talk are going to be worse for you. [/quote]
