Hey all,

Have been dating this woman who is six years older than me, she is the first girl I've ever asked out(I'm 23), and I suffer from social anxiety, depression, and a bunch of other things, lol.

Anyway, she has invited me to go to this wedding reception of a wedding that she is a bridesmaid to. I getting real stressed out and worked up over these things:

• I don't know anyone there except for my date, and her housemate.
• Everyone there will be at least 6 years older than me, and I have a bit of a baby face. (My date doesn't look anywhere near her age, it was one of the biggest shocks when I learned her actual age, but her friends do look their age)
• I have a lot of anxiety about my appearance, I've lost a lot of weight, but still have some weight issues.
• My date said that it's very casual and not to stress out about what to wear, just wear black pants, shoes, and a shirt, but I still feel like I'm going to look like ****.

Well, those are my main fears, I'm pretty worried about it all. I really want to go, because I've been invited by a woman who I'm dating, and this would score me some points in any potential relationship, but damn.

My date keeps telling me to stress less, but my mind is going insane.
