Starlights agony auntYou need to remain positive.

You've been through a bad relationship but remember you have come through fighting and your a survivor! be proud of yourself.

Dont worry too much about your first date.

Try and go with the flow.

Dont expect too much, just attend your date (the first time date will always be harder) but dont talk too much about the past, keep the conversation light, talk about your favorite programs, celebrities, interests.

Nothing bad will happen at this date, think of it as going out with a friend for the night.

Hope you have a lovely time & Good luck!
