I have my first date tonight since ending things with someone else awhile ago , it’s my first date since being sober with someone new and I’m beyond nervous. He’s very life and seems genuine ; but I’ve never met him before . We’re meeting at a public place to get food and maybe go to an arcade but I’m so nervous . Normally i would have a few shots to ease the anxiety but I’m not planning to do that. Wish me luck !

Lots of luck, but you’ll do fine!
Are you sure you’re ready to date? Seems like you just got back on the wagon…. No judgement of course just looking out and good luck
I've actually enjoyed sober dating better over the past few years. Being sober helps in most places other than the first kiss 
. Booze makes that so much less awkward but It's still fine. I take CBD for anxiety as well. Just a suggestion. Good luck
Try to remember, you’re trying to decide if this new person is going to fit in YOUR LIFE.
I often went on dates with the notion that the date is for the other person to decide if I fit in their life, never taking in to account that they may not fit in mine. Just like job interviews: you’re interviewing them, just as much as they are interviewing you. You will probably be surprised by how taking care of yourself will be met with encouragement, similar stories, and/or admiration!

He is just as nervous as you! Don’t forget that
Remember to listen to your intuitive side. It has good insight. Good luck.
I think we are all curious, well at least I am, HOW DID IT GO!?
