"Art washes from the soul the dust of everyday life."
~Pablo Picasso


Love is patient, love is kind; it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
1 Corinthians 13:4
A man's ways are his own, but the LORD weighs the heart.


I don't know about you, girls, but in a guy, I look for someone sweet and caring; someone who'd go to the end of the universe and back for you. Someone who'd defend you and help you and hold you when you need them to.
I want someone who will always think about someone else and not themselves, but not to an extent where they forget themselves and don't take care of themselves.
And, someone who's honest.

My friend is nice to his gf, and I wish I had someone that nice.

I like this, but i think you should have gone on and told why you look for those things.

We look for the same in girls. We dont always get that in return. Most girls go out with us cause we are hot.

Or, ya know, they make assumptions about you based on stupid things, like the way you dress or how you look. It happens. I mean, just watch The Breakfast Club... :)

Although awfully poetic, I agree. I think that, above all, I just want someone to hold my hand.

Most guys look for the same things in girls. But most of the time while girls look for something like that in us guys that dont show it in return.

I’m still that girl who falls when she runs, Getting back up, because falling is fun.

girls are the most comlicated things in universe. It'd be easier to break through the C.I.A.'s firewall than decode one of us. Juse keep being nice, it'll be worth it in the end

Since I'm a girl, I know how they work.  Considering how these girls are treating you, you can make two assumptions.  1: they're jerks, or 2: they're testing you to see how far you'll go before you stop being nice--if this is the case, rise to the challenge and still stay nice, because sooner or later they'll get the message.  I really wish there were more guys like you in my school; most of them either think they're the king of the whole school, or just want you for your body...how rude.  Don't give up--like the article said, girls want a guy who's nice and trustworthy.

Okay, but I'm a guy; please tell me why girls at my school are so stuck up even when I'm nice. I act nice and polite (treat them in a respectful way) to them but, they don't treat me the same. Please tell me why that is happening.

im a guy and I have to agree with you. But a fair warning to you all! All guys will not ALWAYS put you first, its just our nature. I think its is you girls nature also. So dont put him first in your life, because if he goes, so does your reason to be happy.  You should put your full love in someone who loves you and know for sure that he wont change.
