Dating by Nick Carter, 29.
"I've been going on dates for over 15 years but I still find them terrifying. It's scarier than singing live to thousands of fans; with a performance you can rehearse, but a date is a different equation. You can't prepare because you don't know what to expect. But that's what makes it exciting.
I've always got nervous on a first date, but I think that's a good sign. It means you like the other person. I'd usually suggest a movie - a comedy. It breaks the ice and takes the focus off each other. It gives you common ground to work from. My first ever date was roller skating - doing something energetic burns off the nerves too.
A guy's instinct is often to sleep with a woman on the first date. But I think you should resist for as long as possible. Not only because it makes it special, but to protect yourself from getting hurt. Although, at the other end of the spectrum, I've found that having your heart broken helps you. When it heals, you'll be wiser and more understanding.
If a guy doesn't call or text you back for days on end, it could be because he's playing a game. When men don't know how to react to their feelings, that's what we do. I admit I've done it in the past, but not any more. You need to be open with one another.
The biggest lesson I've learnt is that you should never judge a book by its cover. Unfortunately, I have in the past. Some of the hottest people in the world aren't as nice as you'd expect. Even the sexiest girls have problems and insecurities. I want someone real. In the past, I've dated celebs, British girls...even a fan. As long as she has a genuine heart and is a good person, that's all that matters."
Nick is currently dating photographer Lauren Kitt. Backstreet Boys' new album This Is Us is out now.
on a side note: if I were Lauren, I think I might be a little upset by this... maybe it's just me, but it's like the boy is saying 'well, my girlfriend is really not the cutest, but it's okay' LOL I know he means well, but it sounded a little weird.
