So I have a second date on Saturday night. The date is with B. He's the guy I had a first date with last week. On our first date we went to dinner and then back to his place to watch some TV and well, um, you know. We didn't get into any deep discussions and I actually don't know all that much about him. I mean, I know the basics but nothing of any substance. I don't know anything about his relationship history (I totally avoided that conversation) or his stance on politics, etc.

Our second date will be out for dinner again and then back to my place to see a DVD. I'll let him pick the movie. I hope to find out more things about him on this date. I already know he's a nice guy but I'd like to find more things we have in common, about his politics, his views on issues, and how he loads his dishwasher. You know, the important things. We've talked on the phone a few times but just about day to day happenings. I would also like to find out about his relationship history. Has he been in a long term relationship? How long did it last? Why did it break up? What is he looking for in a guy? How does he feel about monogamy? I doubt I'll get to find out all of these things. And it's a bit much for a second date maybe. In any case, I'm sure we'll talk about more substantial topics. Should I be nervous about the second date? Does even having a second date mean anything more then just a second date?

Hmm…should you have sex on the second date?
