I agree about just wearing a long sleeved shirt V and not discussing it until you get to know her. And I am sure she is nervous about having a date with you, after all she has challenges as well.

But, this reminds me of an old boyfriend I had. I had dated him for a while and he was a real nice guy in to art like I was and went to the art school I wanted to go to.
Well, after we dated for a while he told me he needed to talk to me. He began to tell me that when he was in high school he was out with a friend who was high and ran a red light and rear ended someone. After the crash he went to get out and stepped out of the car and sliped and fell because the pavement was covered in gasoline that caught fire. He told me that a great amount of his body had been severely burned and that he spent a long time in the hospital and they didn't even know if he was going to survive. And then he wanted to show me his legs which were very badly scared. He never wore shorts because of his badly discolored and scared legs.

I kissed him and told him, it didn't matter to me at all, and I really meant it. We ended up parting ways but it had nothing to do with his scars. He met another girl and he had always had a crush on her and he just began dating her. I was just glad he was happy and we always remained friends.

So don't worry so much, you don't have to be perfect and this girl isn't perfect either. Enjoy her company and let her enjoy you too.
