High school is a time where students begin to mostly focus on their future and their success. However, during that time, some students will go through a relationship, which of course involves going on a date. However, many students feel nervous about asking their date out, especially their first date, as they feel that they will look bad in front of them and end up getting rejected.

Many students usually begin to go out on a date during freshman or sophomore year as they begin to get to know new people and form a strong bond with each other.

Doing these activities can help focus you and your date having fun without stressing out and it will help you two gain new memories. “We went to the OC Fair and played games and went on rides, Montesino answered.
