All you can do is be you and hope that she likes you for who you are.

Being honest, my first time going out with Tiva was a bit nerve racking. I kept asking myself how she could want to go out with someone like me who was a bit stand-offish and acted kinda cocky. Turns out she had gleaned more than that from talking to me enough to want to go out with me. From there, things progressed and now I am engaged to her. It's not perfect, but I am happy as is she (at least she seems to be and I hope she is).
