Thanks for the train!
As for advice, just try to be yourself, don't over-think it. It's much easier to act naturally rather than trying to put on a front. If they've agreed to go on a date with you, that means that must already think you're alright anyway. Or if it's an arranged date, someone else thought you might get along with each other.
It's perfectly normal to be nervous, especially on your first date. Everyone is. Don't take it too seriously. It's not a life or death situation. Try to make each other laugh and have a good time, and of course be considerate of the other person foremost. :)
Attire and paying is, I suppose, more of a cultural thing and depends on circumstances.

In addition to all the good advice in this thread, I can only say that you should both try to have fun! Plan something fun to visit or to do together, maybe even think in advance about some fun topics to talk about. While you are at it, try to observe and see if she is having fun too.
Having fun is the key. That's all I know :)

Thank you for your nice train.
An a little advice from me as a girl. Be yourself is most important. Show interest on what she has to say, ask questions, don't interrupt her. Be a real gentleman, like open the doors for her and pay the bills. Humor is also important, if you can laugh together, it's half done. I wish you the best of luck. It's totally normal to be nervous, she is also I bet and you could say that to her, I think that's a good start. Have fun! (◕‿-)✌

Attire depends entirely on where you're going. Obviously, you want to look nice so you probably don't want to throw on that shirt you wore when you helped a friend paint a room or the one with the big old mustard stain on it. But you dress for the location, beyond that. Imagine (or even go take a look for yourself) what people are wearing wherever you're going, and wear something on a similar level of casual-ness.
You should always offer to pay, I think, but let her split the bill if she wants to. The more progressive approach is that the person who asked the other out should always offer to pay, so you could do that if she asked you out but IMO it's usually better to just offer. If she offers to pay first, ask to split the bill.
Ettiquette... It sounds like a big thing, but don't worry about it. Like others have told you, you just need to be yourself and treat her with the respect you would give any friend or acquaintance. You don't need to be running around throwing your coat over puddles, or anything. The point of dating is to get to know the person and gauge whether or not you'd like to spend more time with this person, so trying too hard and going to extreme lengths to cater to her isn't going to give her a good idea of what it's like to be around you. Not to mention, some people find that behavior offputting. Just do what feels right.

Hello everyone once again! Here is another wonderful train for all of you. Hope you like it! Long time no see. Things have been interesting these past couple weeks. I wanted to get your help on a matter. I am a straight guy. I have never dated anyone and have never even been on a date. I wanted to get your opinion on what is a good etiquette to use on a date? What is a good attire to use on a first date? Should I pay for everything initially? I want to know things like that to keep in mind. Any help would be very welcome. In any case, I don't want to keep you guys and gals waiting any longer.
The Conductor Beckons!
PS: Add me on Steam if you want, I always like more friends. :)
PSS: Thank you for all your helpful advice, everyone. When I actually go on my first date eventually, I'll definitely make use of it. :)
