The first dates seem sorta critcal, afraid you might say or do something wrong to not make them not want to be with you. I'm just going to let things flow, and be myself, if shes not happy of that then its too bad.

Really, let that sink in for a while.
After you've done that, realize again that that is the nearest star to us after the sun. Are you getting a sense of how fantastically small you are in this infinite black that we float along in? I know you tend to think of the stars and the rest of the universe as "out there", but right now, you are in space. If it weren't for the titanic atmosphere surrounding you, you would be in the frigid quiet of space.
Also remember that when you look at the stars, you are looking into the past, because the light from those stars has taken so long to reach your eyes that since that time they have moved or died/exploded. None of the constellations are actually where you perceive them to be. You're not actually seeing those stars, just the light that left them millions or even billions of years ago.
I love Astronomy/Cosmology.
