    First, consider if your upset stomach is caused from nerves or from a stomach issue. If you are anxious, you can take 5-10 deep breaths to relax you. Try stretching or playing relaxing music. If your stomach is genuinely upset and you are sick, check in with your date and see if you can reschedule.
