Hey so I met this girl via OLD and we exchanged phone numbers. We texted each other back and forth for a couple of hours. We both decided we want to go to dinner and we have now set a date. Here's my problem, I find this girl extremely attractive. All the physical traits she has are exactly what I like in women. She seems super cool and is a fast responder in text. But now, I find myself thinking about her a bit more than other girls. I'm really excited for the date, but I'm worried that I may come off more interested in her than she is in me. For example, we were texting back and forth about two days ago and I'm REALLY trying not to text her for the next few days. I have to do the whole "I don't care" thing. So guys, how do you keep your cool when you meet someone you really fancy?
Don't play stupid games.... The whole "I don't care thing" is childish. Be yourself.... how hard is that? if she doesn't like you for who you really are... what is the point?
Just basically delay most of the impulses you have about her.
Only do about half the stuff you're thinking about doing, at least for now. Once you've met and you see if you have any chemistry, and it's reciprocated, then it's on.
This is true, and it also makes me think that maybe I might have more luck if I date girls that I'm not as attracted to.
OK, OP, re-read what you just posted. How much sense does it make to date women you're not attracted to?
I mean, I can't believe you just said that in all seriousness.
And how much sense does it make to pretend not to care? If you convey the vibe that you don't care, she'll think you don't care.
WTH?!
But a better way of not going overboard about her, is to remind yourself that you don't know her, yet, except by some texting. You need to get to know people, to find out if they're as attractive as they look, if you see what I mean. She may be "hot", but you know almost nothing about her personality. It's easy to seem cool via text; she could turn out to be a completely different person when you meet her IRL. That does happen. So dial back your fantasies and projections, and try to stay grounded.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!
Games are for when you're in high school, not as an adult! Be yourself, either she'll like you for you or she won't!

That makes NO sense! You have to be attracted to the person on some level or it will never work! And the person who posted not to text right away or call back right away.....................is probably single!! If you like this girl, act like it!!
