Well, I'm going to jump off the bandwagon and give you more than just "Be Yourself." Here is some advice for your first date (as that is probably the most important impression-making moment of the relationship).
+ On your first "hang out" or "date" or whatever you want to call it, don't have sex. I know, I know, but I'm being honest. Sex early on in the relationship could spell disaster. However, it IS okay to kiss (and by kiss, I mean friendly pecks, not invasive tongues).
+ On the date, always keep the conversation going. If it ends abruptly, start making small talk; playing 20 Questions is always a great way to restart conversation. Also, don't interrupt him while he's talking; let him finish his sentences. Pay close attention to what he's saying, as you'll need that information to come up with a well thought out [and non-ditzy] response. However, do NOT talk about religion or politics. Trust me; they're too serious of subjects to talk about on a first date.
+ Don't refer to him as a "friend" - it may give off the wrong tone, as it might make him think that he's already in the Friend Zone. Although two men (or anyone for that matter) have to be friends before being boyfriends, for now, try to refrain from using the word until you understand his motives.
+ If you go out to eat, don't make him pay for the bill (and don't split the bill either). Pay for the whole thing. If he offers otherwise, strongly insist on paying the bill. If it's to no avail, allow him to pay for it, but reaffirm that you'll pay for the next one.
+ After the date, don't text, call, Facebook, IM, email [etc.] him. Let the moment marinate in your mind. Reflect on what was positive, and try to find out creative and related ways to keep the ball rolling [if you're both still interested]. In my opinion, give at least 12 hours since the date ended to contact him. This allows him to reflect on what happened too.
+ Probably the most important... If you go on a second date, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT stand him up! Being stood up is one of the worst possible things someone can do to another person, as it shows a great level of disrespect, indecency, and a whole plethora of other negatives. If you get stood up, then cut the relationship then-and-there; it's not worth it.
Good Luck and Best Wishes
