Today, the guy I like asked me out for the first time. It's a good thing he did it over Facebook, because I started shaking and almost threw up. I don't know how I'm going to function on our date next week. FML

Today, on my first date with a guy I really like, I threw up not once, not twice, but three times. FML
It's a sign
Today, after weeks of psyching myself up, I finally asked my crush to go out for coffee. She smiled and said yes. Feeling on top of the world, I turned to leave, walked straight into an opening glass door, and gave myself a nosebleed before the date had even happened. FML
Tonight, on First Dates…
Today, I finally got the courage to go on a first date with this guy I had a crush on for months. It was such a big deal for me cause it was my first date ever. The first thing he says when we met was, "I have to take a dump." I sat by myself for 10 minutes. FML

Shoot your shot
Today, I finally got the courage to ask out the girl I’ve had a crush on for years. I was so nervous, I got confused and sent her a text meant for my best friend that said, "I’m about to ask her out. Pray I don’t puke on her." She responded with a laughing emoji and said, "You really need to work on your game." FML
Today, due to nervousness, I threw up while proposing to my girlfriend. FML
Distant love
Today, for the first time in more than two years, a guy asked me out. Too bad he lives halfway around the world. FML

If you can resist the puking, I think the vibrations will be beneficial for other 'activities'

Don't make the mistake another OP made and get shit-faced drunk to "calm your nerves". Take deep breaths, practice conversation with yourself if it helps. Talk to friends, family, etc. about it if they have experience. If all else fails, do some breathing and yoga exercises before the date. It helps calm you down pretty well. Good luck.

Take care of those withdrawals and you may not be so nervous. Maybe everyone who said get high has a point.

I'd hate to see what happens when/if you fall in love with this guy. Though, if it makes you feel any better, the moment I realized I was in love with my girlfriend I passed out in front of her. So it could surely be worse.

Just chill and enjoy! He's probably nervous as well ;)

I used to get nauseous when I would spend time with my girlfriend, but it was only because of nerves. Just think in your head that it's really a very linear process, and that if he liked you enough to ask you out then there's nothing to be nervous about. Best of luck.
