stupid habits


Question Posted Thursday June 7 2007, 3:58 pm

well, ever since i started to like guys, people have told me i have very "weird" taste in guys. Because of this, i've had this habit of concealing (very well i might add) who i like (by not looking them in the eyes, etc.). Now people are thinking i'm bi or a lesbian, and it's very obnoxcious because sometimes they don't believe me when i say i'm straight. And on top of all this, i've started doing these habits with guys i don't even like! I really need some tips on how i can stop this, because this weekend i'm seeing this guy i really like at a party and i want something to happen between us and i don't want to look like a freak with all my weirdish habits. Thanks in advance!

Don't worry if other people say you have a weird taste in guys. People like who they like and sometimes we can't help it. We're drawn to who we're drawn to, initially, and if it's not the person that other people would consider liking, then it's not their business. Girls shouldn't have to follow a trend about who they're attracted to. Because in the end, the ones who don't, end up with the best guys. Now that you're self conscious about who you like, you just need to get back into that groove where you're comfortable around them. There's no need to avoid them because of other people, because then the person you like won't notice you! Be their friend before you pursue them because then it'll be easier for them and yourself to get along and think of each other as more than a friend. Hope this helps!

Uh... you hide liking a guy out of fear of what other people think of your taste in guys? STOP THAT.

Like a guy because he is who you like, not because other people don't think he's weird. You will never find happiness in a relationship by basing your taste in guys on the opinion of others. Get it?

Come, now. It's your life, your choice, and your personal taste. YOU live with those decisions, not these "other people." Let them like who they don't think is weird. That just leaves more weird guys for you to choose from, right?

Drop this concealing habit. Seek your happiness with your chin up, regardless of what other people have to say about it.

Omg, i know what you mean i used to be like that.

Well, all you need is confidence. Treat the guy as you would as a friend, but in a flirty way.
Be fun. Don't just stand there, not knowing what to say, find out what you two have in commen and talk about that. And be funny. Don't have a plain sense of humour, i found out that guys like girls with their own sense of humour, if that makes sense.

I'm sorry this isn't that good, i'm kind of in a rush, but if it's not any good then i will answer again in more detail. Let me know.


Good luck xxxxx


Oh, and let me know what happens =]
