The Dirt: Will liking "dude stuff" land you a BF?


 

Check these out, too...

  • Do long distance relationships work?
  • What he really thinks of your fave summer outfit
  • How to deal with a bad kisser
OK, I like NASCAR, cars, steak, hockey, and video games (Grand Theft Auto). I’m not the slightest bit athletic, but I would think I have everything a guy wants. Why do I not have a guy?

 

His Answer: “It's not so much about what the guy wants from you. Hopefully both of you can find qualities in each other that you like,” says Ryan S., 16. “I think you should be looking for a friend first, then as time passes, you two will come closer together because of the aforementioned qualities and attributes.”

 

Decoded: Be yourself! Don’t try to like things you think guys like—a guy will like you for YOU, not because you’re like his best bud. Make friends with a guy (which could be easy because of your similarities) and then see if you can move on from there.

 

Your move: Go make some new guy friends! Say hi to the cutie you’re working with at camp, flash a smile at the lifeguard, maybe even strike up a convo at your bro’s hockey game. Then get to know them—have a casual hangout, like a video game marathon. Get the ball rolling and do things you both like—then he’ll get to know more of you, and figure out what a cool person you are.

My new boyfriend is moving kinda fast. :/ We've only been dating for a few days and he's already dropped the L bomb. He's amazing though, he wished me the sweetest goodnight paragraph and if I text him to ask what he's doing he always says "Just talking to my favorite girl," he really is amazing, but he got kind of sad when I said I'll love him soon, but not yet. I really hate making him feel bad, and I feel like he's too good for me. Any advice?

Hey girl,

If you want your relationship to work, you have to be honest with him! Tell him you care about him but that you're not ready to commit to love yet and that you'd like to take things slower, even though you do like him. You need to be on the same page!

Sorry that this is completely off topic, but I like this guy who is a couple of grades ahead of me, but he's only about a year older. Are you all going to write an article about how to know if an older guy likes you?




Hey girlie,

We already have lots of tips about crushing on an older guy! Check out these articles!

so im going to a new school, and i want my first impression
there to be rite and stuff, the thing is im sorta shy
and i just never have any idea what to talk about mostly... so do you know anyways i can break my shyness? thanks Smile




Hey babe, the best thing you can do on the first day is smile. Try to look friendly and open, and hopefully other people will make the first move. If they don't, though, don't be afraid to strike up a convo by introducing yourself or asking questions about the school. Not sure where a classroom is or how to open your locker? Ask the person next to you, and let that lead into a convo. Good luck, girl!

Sounds great! Totally tried it. Now my crush sit with me at lunch every day at school, and camp. But now what? I don't want to be stuck as his Zombie-Slayer Buddie. I mean, it's fun, but how do i get him to see me as MORE than that?
