You wanna impress her, but you do not know how to do it. You fear you might do something embarassing.

Being in a relationship is a big step in life. Your goal is to try to connect with a person that you really don't know all that well, and find the commonalities between the two of you. That requires a lot of talking, and spending time together participating in activities. Having a girlfriend means that you have to also give a little piece of yourself to another person. All of this can cause a bit of anxiety until a comfort level is reached. This may take some time depending on how much you both open up to each other, and the type of activies you do together. For example, going to the movies is a great way to spend time together, but it doesn't really allow that 1 on 1 face time to really get to know one another. The nervousness will eventually subside once a comfort level is reached!

You love her and you want to impress her. It means that you are a good boyfriend. It also means that you should do something special for the both of you. Getting to know her better will make you less nervous. Good luck!

That can be caused from anxiety. Like me I couldn't eat around my boyfriend or anything because I was always so nervous, however I got over it.
