Why do guys like girls who act stupid to get attention?


 

Check these out, too...

  • Smooching secrets from real guys
  • When's the right time to spill your feelings?
Why do guys seem to only be into girls who wear skimpy clothes, flirt with every boy they see, and always act ditzy and constantly try to be the center of attention? I don't think I'm bad-looking, and my friends say that I'd be a great catch, but guys never notice me! What's wrong with girls who don't feel the need to always be in the limelight and act stupid to get attention?

 

His Answer: “Sometimes guys get distracted by how girls look, especially if they’re begging for attention in the middle of everyone,” says Jack, 15. “I know that most guys are looking for a girl they can actually talk to and have fun with.”

 

Decoded: Guys can get totally caught up with the crowd when everyone is paying attention to a particular girl, just like you and your girls might all be obsessed with the same hottie. But also like girls, guys want to hang with someone that has similar interests to them–and maybe that’s not the cutie you had your eye on, but someone totally unexpected! 

 

Your Move: Be yourself and don’t compare yourself to other girls. If a boy is interested in you for the right reasons, he will show it by having conversations with you and seeing your smarts instead of just your looks.  Stand out and be the smart and self-secure girl–it will definitely help you to get noticed. If you’re open to meeting people that like you for who you are, not just how flirty you can be, you will totes make some connections.

I have a friend that's a boy and he lives by me he is a grade younger than me some of my friends think like we like eachother even my sisters friend thinks he likes me. She says he looks over to our house a lot when I am out but the thing is I do that too. All I know is I am bored so I look over there. Sometimes I think what if I do like him but I don't know if I want to like him and if he likes me. He will talk about other girls and how they are cute. Its just I told my self I don't want to date anyone who swares or is not a Christian and he does both of those things. We don't hang out very much anymore and I kind of sometimes want to hang out with him. I guess I am kind of confused. What should I do. He was prity much my first friend. I cant even remember meeting him.
HELP

 

Hey chicky! Don't worry so much about labeling this boy as a crush or not a crush.  Relax and just hang out with him.  If you two are friends, naturally you want to spend time with him, that doesn't mean you like him as more than a friend.  For now, why not just enjoy hanging with him and if later you feel like you want something more, then you can think about your religion and his swearing.  Good luck! xoxo

MOD MOD MOD!!!!
PLEASE RESPOND
Okay so there is this guy, Z, I really like him. We are so comfortable around eachother, have so much in common, and even his sister thinks he likes me. He always wants to engage me when we are in group situations, he'll touch me while talking to me, and I catch him staring at me A LOT. He also always makes eye contact with me even if he's talking to a whole group of people. He tries to impress me OFTEN. So my first question is; Do you think he might be interested or am I reading the signs wrong.
Here's the problem, he lives about 980 miles away and we only see eachother once maybe twice a year. He doesn't use social networking and I don't have his #. I thought about asking his sister for it, but that'd be weird. I feel so strange whenever I am around him, I don't even know how to describe it! It's different than with any other guy. How do I deal with missing him for 12 whole months?!?




Hey girl!

This is a tough situation. It sounds as if he really likes you and you really like him. If phone is the only way to keep in contact, that could be tough. Could you Skype? You really need to weigh the pros and cons of having the relationship. Plus, you need to see if he's interested in being in a relationship too! This is how I see it: if you both really like and care about each other and both want a relationship, go for it. You only have one life so you should be with the person you like! Plus, you can't allow yourself to get so wrapped up in your relationship that you start ignoring your friends and family at home. If long distance becomes way too hard--and there's definitely a chance it could--you need to let go and realize it was not meant to be at the time. Good luck!

How can i Burn 300 calories in one simple exercise? Like how long do i have to walk to burn 300 calories??? Thanks! Smile




Hey girl!

300 calories is a lot, and you would need to walk really far and fast to be able to burn that many calories at once. There's not going to be one exercise that can do it all for you. Walk, run, ride your bike, swim--those will all burn a healthy amount of calories if you do it for 30 min.

1. Say your name 10 times.
2. Say your mom's name 5 times.
3. Say your crush's name 3 times.
4. Paste this to 4 other quizzes. If you do this, your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday, but if you read this and do not paste this, then you will have very bad luck! SEND THIS TO 5 QUIZZES IN 143 MINUTES. WHEN YOU'RE DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR CRUSH'S NAME WILL APPEAR IN BIG LETTERS ON THE SCREEN. THIS IS SO FREAKY BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS
