21 Thoughts We All Have When Going On A First Date

Most of us can agree that a first date can be the most terrifying step of a relationship — and one that can make or break what might follow. I mean, whether or not your future significant other is just as obsessed with "Friends" as you are could be a deal breaker. That being said, guys and gals usually have completely opposite thoughts which is why, for the purposes of this article, I asked a group of friends to give me the top things on their mind during a first date...

1. Is this a date?

This may or may not be an important question.

2. Is my hair OK?

Fluffy hair galore.

3. I hope he watches insert TV show here.

Meanwhile, I'm here hoping he watches *insert 30 TV shows* here.

4. Is there something in my teeth?

Let's hope it's not green.

5. Does my breath smell?

Because we all know this breath test is effective.

6. Did I smear my makeup?

We're all beautiful in our own way, right?

7. What if he’s a serial killer?

"Oh, that would never happen," I say as I put a pocket knife in my thigh holster, pepper spray in my pocket, and a taser in my purse.

8. I hope he smells good.

He better.

9. I wonder if he’s been arrested.

"Is this a date?" may or may not be an important question. This, on the other hand, is definitely is an important question.

10. Is this worth a second date?

Or not.

11. I hope I'm dressed right.

*laughs nervously and backs away slowly

12. Who’s paying?

Don't look at me.

13. Ok, no spaghetti or ribs or anything messy.

It's not true love unless he's seen you eat a hamburger.

14. I wonder if he's Facebook stalked me yet.

I bet he has.

15. I wonder if she knows I Facebook stalked her.

I bet she doesn't.

16. Are my jokes bad?

Her face says it all.

17. I bet she's checking me out.

Anything about flirting would be incomplete without a "How you doin'?" gif.

18. Why did she order like no food?

Must. Not. Ruin. Lipstick.

19. Should I kiss her?

Unless you want this to happen, it's definitely a good idea to ask this question.

20. I hope she has a good sense of humor.

A good sense of humor is the best remedy to any situation.

21. I wonder if she’ll have a burping contest with me.

According to my friend, this is something that might cross a guy's mind. Words fail me.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

998

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
