Having a drink to calm the nerves is one thing, but spending several minutes taking shots of vodka before a date sounds like straight-up alcoholic behavior. Unless OP is greatly exaggerating, either she has a massive tolerance, or she would end up a drunken mess in front of her date, which would probably be much worse than a case of the nerves.
If I knew my date hand just taken five shots in short order the first thing I'd probably ask them is, "Can I call you a cab?"
I'm not a cab... YOUR A CAB... whatsh werz we tulking abit
What if you had also taken five shots in short order?
The plot thickens.
In that case I'd be too busy laughing at my own jokes to do anything useful.

Sounds like that short video series with the guy from Silicon Valley.
Nerd!

I'd go shot for shot with her and we'd have a fucking blast.
Bunch of fucking virgins in here.
It wasn't until I got clean that I came to understand that non-alcoholocs don't see drinking as a competitive activity.
Good luck, I hope it never gets bad for you but that's usually a question of when, not if.
Every girl I've ever known who tried 5 shots of vodka was crying by 3 and throwing up while taking #5.
To be fair they said “5 minutes” but did not give a number of shots.
“s” implies at least 2, leaving some wiggle room that they where not accustomed to strong liquor and had trouble getting It down. 2 of them because they underestimate the effect of just one.
They also used the word "chug," which is almost certainly an exaggeration to some degree, but it certainly implies more than two, IMO.
You don't "pound" 2 shots. I feel like that's a 4-5 shot minimum.

You don't think I can pound two shots!?
Live your dreams
I'm pretty resistant to alcohol and numbing medications. I could do two double shots and just barely have the edge taken off.
Of course, I'd not even consider drinking to ease nerves, and there's no f'ing way I'd be doing shots in my car; that's a great way to get a DUI in most places.
You're not even supposed to have alcohol within arms reach. Technically they can pull you over for having it on the back seat although I'm not sure how they would notice that.
Not in Mississippi, it's actually legal to drink while driving provided you're under the limit.
yeah laws on that vary wildly by location
Sounds very much like she was driven by a friend...
Much worse for him.
