1. First mistake....you DON'T want to scare her away. Forget the long term relationship, believe me, you don't know a thing about this girl yet. In my humble opinion, let her know you don't date much (you don't have to say EVER!). If you get into a relationship with her, she'll find out anyway.
2. I'd go to a restaraunt that has outside dining before I'd pack up a picnic. Might be a little too much on the first date. If she thinks you spent all day preparing a dinner, packed it away, went online & got all kinds of advice on how to handle date #1, she might think it's a little too much too soon. I say make her dinner for date #2 if it happens. Just my 2 cents.
3. Lots of talk, but it can be over a game of mini golf or a hundred other things. When you call her, ask her what her hobbies are. Find something mutual you both like to do & go do it (I agree the movie is a bad place to start a date, but it worked for me, now 13 years later. If you do the movie, go eat first then go to the movie. If things are progressing nicely, grab the hand!).
4. I call bullshit. If she said she'd go out with you, it's because she's interested. People don't go out to dinner with people they don't have an interest in unless they can't afford food & are starving.
5. See above. You are in if she said she'd go out with you. She probably is not infatuated with you yet, that's what the dating part is for.
Good luck!
