In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Plan the occasion yourself or ask your date what you will be doing for the duration. Choose what you wear and bring based on the type of activity or setting.  If you are the one planning the date, try something besides the typical dinner-and-movie. Go hiking, to an arcade, or to a science museum, for example. Doing something active and interesting will take some of the pressure off conversation and allow you and your date to relax more. Ask what your date has in mind if they are planning it. If it’s a secret, simply ask what type of setting it is, like outdoors, active, or fancy. When in doubt, opt for something comfortable that you can move around in, especially in regards to shoes. Build up your confidence before the date by doing something that makes you feel good about yourself. Give yourself a pep talk, visualize the date going really well, or think about another time that you accomplished something big in your life.  Try standing in front of a mirror and encouraging yourself! While it may feel silly, giving yourself a pep talk can really put you in a good mood before your date. Try telling yourself something like, “I am happy with myself and happy to have this date, so no matter what happens, I’ll have fun!”  Think of another occasion in your life for which you were really nervous, but which went really well after all. Imagine that feeling of relief and accomplishment when you completed what you set out to do. Know that there’s no reason you can’t feel the same way with this date! Plan to give yourself ample time to get ready before your date, whether that means showering and getting dressed, doing hair and makeup, or just giving yourself a little pep talk in the mirror. Don’t put yourself in a position where you have to rush, otherwise you’ll be flustered right from the beginning of the date.  You probably already have a good idea of how long it takes you to get ready, so stick to that. You don’t need to do anything extra to your appearance beyond what makes you feel good about yourself. Your date already knows and expects your normal look. Avoid getting ready too far in advance, which may make you antsy or more nervous when you finish getting ready and have to wait till the date starts. This could also increase the chance of you getting your clothes dirty, hair messed up, makeup smudged, etc. Make sure you’re on the same page with your date about how, when, and where you’re meeting up. This will avoid any confusion or awkwardness that could ruin your date from the start if there’s any miscommunication.  Communicate with your date about whether one of you is picking the other up and where, or if you’re meeting at an agreed-upon spot. If the latter, decide on a recognizable landmark to meet at. “I’ll meet you outside the main doors of the theater,” for example, or “Let’s meet at the horse statue in the park.” Be on time to the date. Being “fashionably late” won’t be impressive to your date and will only make him worried you’ve stood them up.
Summary: Figure out the agenda. Boost your confidence. Give yourself time to get ready. Confirm the time and place you’ll meet.

If you believe you have a collapsed vein, contact a doctor or clinic to discuss treatment options. In order to give a vein its best chance to heal, stop injecting into that vein altogether. Vitamin C and other supplements may help fight inflammation within the veins. That said, no supplement will eliminate the risk of a collapsed vein, nor guarantee that a collapsed vein will fully heal. It’s always best to see a medical professional immediately if you believe you may have a collapsed vein. If you are diagnosed with a recently collapsed vein, a doctor may prescribe blood thinners that will help thin your blood and encourage it to circulate.  In other cases, they may recommend surgery to repair damaged veins as much as possible.
Summary:
Recognize the severity of a collapsed vein. Ask a medical professional about supplements that may help. Anticipate medication or surgery.
