My friend has fixed me up with a guy she knows. I have been divorced for over 10 years and honestly have not been looking for a new partner. I feel frumpy even though I have lost 100 pounds. We are just going to subway and to play mini golf. What should I wear? I live in Texas so it is pretty warm here now. Excited but nervous.

    Wear something that you are comfortable in and feel confident wearing. Jeans and a nice shirt is usually a winning combo for what you have planned. Enjoy the time out and getting to know someone new. Going out once doesn't mean you have to go out a second time, so don't put extra pressure on yourself.

    I'd say wear whatever makes you feel comfortable! Bottom line is you want to confident and comfortable. You don't want something that shows almost your butt or too much cleavage otherwise the guy is going to think you're DTF on first date and not sure what you're looking for but I know most Women don't want to give that impression. Wear something that's casual but not over the top. Maybe jeans and a stylish short sleeved top of some sort. Idk Women can help out here too lol

    Hey! I'm a woman and offered help :p

    I think jeans and a nice top is perfect, especially if they are going to mini golf.

    Super scary! You are awesome for taking this step and should feel like a million bucks having lost 100lbs!! As far as what to wear, I was born and raised In Texas, jeans, light make up if you wear it, a short sleeve, preferably scoop neck 9 stay away from V neck when you bend over for golfing the girls will pop out and you dont want to have to worry about that, nicest comfy shoes! Have fun and let your awesome light shine!
