WHAT YOU SAY

[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]

ok to answer question number one, if a guy winks at you, then it is 99% that he likes you because if he didnt like you he would be going out of his way not to get your attention.
To answer question number two if a guy keeps looking at you or is always staring at you then it is most definately that he likes you but he may only think your cool and want to be friends with you or it might be sexual as wel.
question number three is a good question, trust me dont be detered when a guy laughs or smiles whenever you make eye contact. i know it might seem like he's making fun of you but it seriously isnt, we like it so we laugh, i do it sometimes so i know.

Arwen, I wink at girls to just play around and to also see how they react to it. That way if i'm interested in her, then i'll know that she's cool with me flirting with her. If a guy keeps looking at you, chances are that he finds you attractive in some way. Hope this helps

I can talk about anything,

If you can talk about anything then why not ask the girl what she wishes to talk about. It's hard to say what girls like to talk about becuase each of us are diffrent, like each of you guys are diffrent. Try and find something that interest her, and hopefully interest you.

Arwen,

If a guy does anything to initiate contact with the opposite sex in highschool, it is because he is interested.

If he initiates anything to promote a positive atmosphere, he is interested.

At that early age there is very little sophistication in courtship.

To I can talk about anything,

Don't compromise your intelligence for those less-intellected brains. I am a girl and I love subjects regarding sociology and psychology. But I only talk about it to friends who are interested as well. Striking up a conversation is one of the hardest thing to do on a date! I suggest talking about a famous movie that she probably had seen before.

*To all the guys:

I think that guys are confused with girls just as much that we are confused with you! Hopefully, this board will clear some things up. If you post a list of questions, I will try to answer them; and if possible, please answer back to my questions! =)

1. If a guy winks at you, does that mean he likes you or just playing around?

2. If a guy keeps looking at you, or always looking at you whenever you see him, is that because he likes, hates, or just curious about you? (some people stare for all the reasons)

3. How can you tell if a guy is making fun of you, or he likes you, or he thinks you're pretty, when each time you make eye contact, he smiles or laughs?

I'm sorry if these questions sound stupid! I'm still in high school and boys in here are so confusing. But any comments will be appreciated. Thanks.

Please tell me what girls love to talk about?

Themselves. You give them an opener about themselves and they can go on all night.

I have no problems attracting girls. But, I usually never go beyond 3 dates. I usually don't understand why they get bored or turned off or what? I don't know? The only thing is that I am not so humorous. I like topics such as culture, history, sociology, issues like that. Many girls are turned off by such talk.
