BIOGRAPHY:
My name is Carrie, and I just recently turned 25. I've been told that I give excellent advice, so I created this column last year with the intention of helping as many people as possible. Although I do believe I succeeded, I ultimately turned my back on this column when I discovered just how cruel and thankless some people can be. Almost one year later a lot has changed. I've gained a whole new perspective on life and the world around me. I'm much more positive, sympathetic, and willing to listen when people truly need help. So now I've decided to come back and focus my attention on the individuals who are truly in need of advice.
ADVICE:
I'm very genuine when it comes to giving advice. I try to be sympathetic to the person asking the question, but I don't ever sugar coat things. I've learned quickly that many people who ask for help don't really want advice - they want someone who will say what they want to hear. Sorry, but you're not going to get that with me. I'm not here to make friends (if a friendship happens though, yay for me!). You'll always get the truth from me whether you like it or not. While the truth may sting just a bit to begin with, it will absolutely set you free in the long run. If you want to be lied to, please seek advice from somebody else.
CONTACT INFO:
If you like my advice and have additional questions for me, click on the link right underneath this profile that says "Ask Me A Question." If you leave your follow-up question for me in my feedback, I have no way of replying to it. Please use the link. Also, I have an e-mail address where people can get in touch with me if they need to. Feel free to use it.
IMPORTANT:
This may be a hobby in some people's eyes, but I don't like it when people waste my time regardless of whatever it is I'm doing, which in this case, is providing a free service out of the kindness of my heart. So please don't ask me stupid questions, and please make an effort to type sensibly so that I can read and understand your question. I know there are a lot of young people on this site, but that's no excuse to type like you're brain dead. Proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation is highly appreciated with me. The more intelligent your question is, the more intelligent of a response you'll get from me.
ABOUT ME:
Here are some facts about me. I like pop music (especially Madonna). I like horror movies (especially Scream). I like to chat (on MSN). I love to write (poetry, screenplays, short stories). I love shopping (Best Buy). I'm a gamer (I'm better than a guy - Xbox 360 all the way). I have a MySpace (Click "Ask Carrie" for the link). I love my doggies (I have 2). I'm not a bitch (...well, sometimes). I love to laugh (and sometimes I pee a little when I do). It happens.

I havent had a boyfriend in more than a year and its not like i need a boyfriend, but i want one. So i want to know what guys find attractive. All ages please, and mostly guys opinions, but girls are fine. I do not want to hear confident, because i already am, thanks (link)

Well, I am a girl, but I'm the kind of girl who only has guy friends, so I feel 90% comfortable speaking for guys. I'm sure someone somewhere will disagree with me, but I know a lot of my guy friends would agree with what I'm about to say.
First of all, I have to say this even if you know it. Guys DO like confidence, which you say you are, but if you were you wouldn't have to ask questions like this. So regardless of how confident you perceive yourself, being confident in the eyes of a guy is a completely different thing. Work on it just a little bit more.
Physically, this question is even more difficult to answer. The truth is, no matter what your body type is, there are guys out there somewhere who LOVE it. You just have to find those guys. And trust me, they ARE out there. Some guys like big girls, skinny girls, tall girls, asian girls, girls with accents, girls with short hair, etc. The media might portray one thing, but guys aren't as affected by the media as us girls are. Despite what TV, movies, music, and magazines suggest, guys like a wide variety of women - not just Barbie.
Guys really like girls who are feminine but can enjoy some of the things that entertain them. For example, I cry at movies, love pink, love to shop, and if you poll most of my guy friends they'll say I'm the girliest girl ever. However, those same guys will tell you that there's a side to me that's very guy-ish. I can go toe to toe with them in video games, love talking about technology stuff, dig watching porn, make crude jokes, etc.
I have all of my bases covered.
Guys also really like girls who are lighthearted and as drama free as possible. If you find yourself in a situation with a guy who doesn't mind getting into the most dramatic parts of your life, run away! That means THEY'RE a drama queen too. Most guys - most GOOD guys - love a girl who can laugh at herself, laugh with them, doesn't bitch and complain all the time, knows how to have fun, and can handle her own problems like an adult. A good guy will help you with your problems. A drama queen will take advantage of that and dump all of her problems on the guy. After a while, guys get sick of that...pretty quickly usually. So lighten up.
The best advice I can give you, because this question is incredibly vague, is to find out who you are and be it completely. Guys really find girls sexy when they can be themselves. Guys hate having to be mind readers and doing detective work; therefore, they hate trying to figure out who a girl is and what she's all about, especially when the girl has no clue who she is or what she's all about. Although this is the vague answer, this is the most honest answer - guys like it all.
Men like ladies who they can respect; men like sluts who they can get dirty with; men like women who can be funny; men like women who can be serious; men like women who can get all dressed up, yet men don't tend to like women who are vain and full of themselves; men like women who are confident; men like when women do cute, nervous things unintentionally; men like women who can embody everything and can still be themselves at the end of the day. It's not really that hard to please a man if you know what you're doing.
Every guy likes something different. Guys really like it - because unfortunately it's rare - when girls stop thinking about themselves long enough to think about them, learn what they like, learn what they want, and give it to them on occasion. It makes a man feel good. If you make your mission to get down to the very core of a specific guy and see what makes him tick, you'll pretty much have him eating out of the palm of your hand. Guys are simple creatures. Find out what makes them happy, and then make them happy.
5 Things to Be:
1. Be yourself.
2. Be versatile.
3. Be laid back.
4. Be affectionate.
5. Be his buddy.
Good luck!

thanks for telling me but i am confident in who i am and what i look like. i was just exploring so dont say "Guys DO like confidence, which you say you are, but if you were you wouldn't have to ask questions like this. So regardless of how confident you perceive yourself" that to me. I mean i could have given you a one but i gave you a 5 because other than THAT derrogitory sentance it was good advice
