Well there are a million things that people like…some girls like bad boys…some like nice guys….some like guys that spend all their time with you. some like those who give them a lot of space.
Personally…at 16 a girl wants some guy who isnt gona act different when he’s with his mates…plus there are a few girls at 16 who like being clingy…so i guess you have to fall in with that
I always pay attention to eyes, hands, looks, umm…height!!! Yeah, alot of stuff. And they have to be intelligent. And really really sweet.
hmmm…my best bet…is to be friendly with lots of girls…and get to know them…let them get to know you too…and maybe you and another will just fall for one another?
In a guy, I look for a good friend. Who cares about me. They always have to be a friend, first.
I am 16. I like guys that can make me laugh. guys that listen to me. guys who are sensitive and that make me happy. guys that dont act like jerks around their friends.
-sigh- This is pointless.
If you want a girl, ask her out. Just say “Hey, wanna go out?” If she says no, repeat the process. Yes, it’s hard, but I’ve done it, and I have social anxiety.
Just DO IT, man!
it depends on the situation i guess. say if we were friends for a while and the guy wanted to ask me out. i dont like awkward situations so i would want it to be casual. not an extravagant event. but if it was someone i didnt know that well it would freak me out. i like to know someone before i date them.
ok, i haven’t read any other posts but…… if you are shy, you need to be a little more outgoing around girls so that they will become intrested. it is good to be mysterious, but not nessissarily good to be shy. be yourself and i promise, the right girl, that will love every little thing about you, will come.
welcome. you seem like a nice enough guy to me, we have like NO shy guys at my school, they are all just losers and jerks.

was that sarcasm?
good :)
Be yourself, open up, push the edge of the envelop with that shyness… get over it … you will have to sooner or later … best to do it in High School instead of college … or adult hood …
Just do it … you’re a good person. Let that person OUT and let others SEE it. Share it.
i agree with brightshine. you really do seem like a decent person. and i was wondering, have you ever had a girlfriend?
well don’t try too hard, we hate it when guys are too pushy. but you do need to make yourself noticable. if you have a crush, try to talk casually with her, then ask her out. and if you don’t have a crush, don’t go out looking for one (that’s just gay).
good luck! :D oh yea!!! personally, i love it when a guy that likes me tries to find an excuse to touch me, like saying that i have an eyelash on my face or something. you might want to try it, but only do it once
K … that is so sweet … I have had that happen to me a few times … and now that you mention it … it was very nice … I did like that.
But, I didn’t like it when they would pick up my necklace when it was hanging near my breast. but … higher at my neck was okay …
lol. yea. if a guy is like, falling all over you and grabbing at you and stuff it is such a turnoff :( and it makes you sooo not intrested because they then seem like a perv
funny guys….i know it sounds cliche but if you can make a girl laugh and make her comfortable around you and make her smile she’ll like your personality and you can move up from there. Girls typically like to be a focus of your attention…not in a creepy stalker way but if you genuinly listen to her and dont just ignore her she’ll think you’re a nice guy. DONT BE A DOUCHE BAG!! some girls like jerks but you dont really want to want one of those girls. dont be a jerk. Girls understand that you joke around with your guy friends and that you’re not always gonna be this sickly sweet guy…most girls will just think you are a pansy…but dont be this overly mean malicious jerk to your friends…because even if she isnt there people talk and you dont want a reputation of being this insensitive guy whose overly mean to his friends…because a girl would be like “how is he gonna treat me?”
if he could make me laugh and we could talk about stupid things but still laugh so hard. if we had the same since of humor, and could enjoy talking to each other..I also love basketball players ;)
Abs, and boys who don’t do the ‘locker room talk’ bullshit. No macho posturing that teen boys are prone to, but still stands up for me :)

okay im not gonna lie and say looks dont matter cuz they even if someone denies that they dont care they really do it’s juz not the most important thing, but anyhow ussually if he’s taller its good looks wise lol. mostly i look for a guy who can make me laugh and is easy to talk to. also when a guy smiles and it shows in his eyes it pulls me in lol.
To be honest , you cant get advice from such a question. You know different girls would like different guys. But , seems like you are willing to change into any random guy , to get girls to like you .Thats not right. Being natural and being you is what you want girls to fall for. You wouldnt want a girl falling inlove with the person that really isnt you.Just be yourself….you dont have to change for anyone. The only things you can change about you are your flaws , the things that people find annoying in you …simple example : if people find that you annoy them in someway , you stop that . BUT dont try to change who you really are / your personality , or what you like / your beliefs , thinking that girls will like you …Be yourself , the real you ….if one girl doesnt like that , doesnt mean all the girls wont.
Another thing , if you think lets say changing the way you dress or you appearence in anyway possible will help , its your choice…under one condition , you change your style according to what satisfies you and not what you THINK others might like ….it all comes down to what you think of yourself- its far more important than the other way round.:) …
well i look 4 a guy thats honest..caring…funny…is always gonna be there 4 me…2 respect me…2 stick up 4 me…and just…idk..lots and lots of things…
When I was 16 all that really mattered was if he was hot and had a car.
well im 17 and wat i look for in a guy is a car really cute and a car is always good..
when i was 16… hmmm. some1 kind and patient.
Well i have talked to you in another post before and honestly from what you said to me you should have girls crawling over you.
What i look for in a beau is compasion and understanding, Soneine who can take a joke and will through it back at me. So he should have a good sense of humor and is willing to drag me out of the house to get me to lighten up and have a good time. I would also like the person to be intrested in sports-Maybe football:)- and keep up there girls.
sorry i always foget
hey, a guy has 2 b sensitive not 2 sensitive!and hang out w/ your guys and girls often have alot of friends…and a tip if a girl breaks up w/ u don’t go crazy just say “ok” trust me they’ll come back!(if u follow my advice!!!!!):)
i hate immaturity. thats why i cant date boys my own age. if u want a girl, act responsible and mature
