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.
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.
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?"
Nerd!
