I’m 24 and have never been on a date, I’ve had relationships but only online, never in person. I have very bad agoraphobia, generalised anxiety disorder and autism…all things that have led me to my current predicament. I’ve recently been seeing a therapist and counselling and all of that fancy jazz and a few days ago I got a friend request from a girl who I used to go to school with. We got talking and she’s really sweet and she has such a pretty smile, she’s also autistic like me too! Anyway, she asked if I’d like to meet up for a drink and to see each other, I asked if it was a date out of confusion and she said it was, yay! My issue is that this is my first ever date, I’m still not sure how I’m even going to leave the house to see her let alone talk to her in person. I haven’t told her about my anxiety and things yet out of fear of her reaction and in case I mess things up, I intended to tell on her the date but my friend said I shouldn’t do that. I suppose I’m just very nervous and not sure what to expect so any advice would be great!
