First Blind date?

ok, ive been on dates before, but never a blind date where i had never met the person before. A guy i work with was telling me that he wanted me to meet this girl who he thought i would be interested in and vice versa and i said that i was up for it. Im getting her number on Monday and figured i would either call that night or tues night to get a feel for her. I dont know what she looks like and she doesnt know what i look like so i was thinking for our first meeting to keep it simple and short since we may not hit it off. I was thinking we could go to starbucks, even though i dont drink coffee and dont normally go to starbucks, so that we could talk for like an hour, and then if everything goes good have a second date which would include an actually dinner, and then move on from there. How does this sound, and does anyone have any other suggestions for a blind date. I thought about bowling or the zoo, but figured those were better suited for a second or third date

First Blind date?
yeah the starbuck thing could work, that way you are not obligated to sit there with the otehr person for hours on end, then if the coffee goes really well, you guys might even decide something afterwards, so allow time afterwards if needed . . . .
Reply:You are right now the dollar, my friend. A coffee cafe is the perfect place for a blind date (it's very public). I'm glad I had suggested it for a blind date because when we met, while we were talking, I discovered he still had a lot of issues and carried a lot of baggage from his divorce (he was also very bitter towards his ex-wife)....needless to say, there was no second date.
