I think it is just a pure case of "nerves" and because you like her so much, you want to do everything just right so she will feel the same about you.

I know when I am real nervous, there is no way I can eat, never have been able to when I am upset.

I think lots of folks have difficulty eating around someone they are really attracted to, at least at first. I know I do, I really suffer when I am on a first date, I can't eat a thing, and when I get home, I am famished.

I would try to relax and enjoy your meal the best you can, realize she is enjoying her meal so why shouldn't you. In time, this feeling will pass, I assure you. :)

Good luck.
