Is swearing a major turnoff to guys?

Is swearing a major turnoff to guys?

 

His Answer: “Yes it is, everyone slips every now and again, but guys don’t expect girls to be rugged and use profanity," dishes Kemp, 16. "Girls who use profanity tend to come off as self-conscious because they don’t care about themselves enough to talk and conduct themselves with dignity.”

 

Decoded: We can’t be prefect ladies ALL the time, but constantly cursing can reflect poorly on your character. Guys wanna show off a girl that’s proud of who she is, not someone who hides behind nasty language.

 

Your Move: Next time you curse think about how it looks to other people. What kind of perception are you giving others? There’s nothing wrong with being one of the guys, but it’s important to remember that your crush may not dig the nasty language. He’s probably looking for a gal that he can introduce to his ‘rents and you wouldn’t wanna use bad language in front of them would ya? It can be hard when profanity has become such a huge part of our culture, but taking a second to think about what message you’re really sending can only help you in the long run.

There is this boy that I am really crushing on. He is really funny and sweet, but he is in a grade ahead of me, so he goes to a different school. I keep seeing him at randim places, but can't get the nerve to talk to him. What should I do?

 

Hey 1Dfan99, I know exactly how you feel. You just have to make yourself talk to him. Think about it like this. You never know when you're going to see him because he's always in random places. So whenever you do see him you need to go for it. You can start the convo by complimenting him or by asking if he used to go to your school and take it from there. As long as you look good and are confident, you will be okay. Hope this helps! Xoxo

hides behind nasty language? HAHAHA. your joking, right? Wow, GL... and Kemp- or whoever you are. One of my most outspoken, fun, best friends swear and she has boyfriends all the time.. and they're cute. My brother tells me that guys are into girls who aren't afriad to stand up for themselves and swearing is probably included in that.

I have a friend who swears a lot and about 5 guys have liked her in one year. I have a friend who never swears and 1 guy has liked her in 3 years. I don't think guys like it when girls are rugged and whatnot, but swearing does not make you rugged.

Ihave this friend and i think i like him but then i convince myself i dont but then i see him anndd. ughh! it just confuses me so much. i think he likes me but then he calls me his sister it. u knever know what will happen when around him. what should i do?

Hey girl,

It's okay to like your friend, it happens to plenty of people! Just stay friends with him for now and see if he gives any signs that he likes you! If you have a school dance, you could also ask him to dance with you and see what his reaction is.
