I'm 26. I work for a bank and I'm very good at my job and I like what I do and where I'm headed in my career. I only have one good friend whom I've known since I was 13, he is engaged and will be moving out of the city where I live. I get bored and lonely outside of work. When this happens, I usually play online poker or rent a movie. I've gone on a few dates the past few months, through online dating, most of which I've shot myself in the foot, got too anxious. I like running, but I haven't done it in a few weeks. Obviously, I need to get back on the horse here. I just get nervous with the women. I know I'm a great guy, but at some point in time, if not the first than the second or third date I put so much pressure on myself and I get this overwhelming feeling in my head that I just need to do anything to relieve it. This is where the shooting in the foot comes in. I just want some tricks and advice. Please no relax, or see a shrink, or wake the ..... up type comments.
