Friday 55 Flash Fiction # 70 First Date Nerves

First Date Nerves
Ursula was getting ready for a date, the first in years.


She didn't know the rules now.

Pondering - should she go Dutch?

What was expected on a first date? - holding hands, a kiss, back for a coffee, sex???




Of course the most important thing she had to think about was.......

"Aarrghh - what shall I wear?"





Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.

    I guess that's one thing that will never change about dating, no matter the era. People, I suppose women in particular, will worry about what to wear.

    BLACK, You can't go wrong with black and it's slimming too; Or GREEN, so feminine; Maybe you should choose the BROWN one, it has a flattering neckline.
    Damned if I know,nice 55 though:)
