i think most of the lists I've read about what girls want guys to know have a lot of stupid, whiny, high maintenance, unrealistic, and sometimes not true things on them. So, I made my own (with help, hopefully).
1. We don't like it when you hold our hand, we ??? it.
2. We're not all high maintenance. Seriously, who spends five hours getting ready every day? If I'm not going anywhere, I'm not putting much effort into how I look, unless I just want to feel cute.
3. Cheesy and corny is adorable. Seriously.
4. We like it if you're a dork because we are too, so we can be dorks together
5. We think you are unbelievably complicated too. Trust me.
6. We can like blood and gore too, but even if we aren't scared, we'll still act like we are so we will get a hug
7. Usually "I'm fine" means "I'm not at all okay". You see, not all of us are drama queens, so we don't want to come off as one. Also, we don't like being vulnerable.
8. There are some things you just shouldn't say to a girl if you are in a relationship with someone else. Like: you're beautiful, I really like talking to you, you're amazing... need I say more? We can't help but read into these things, especially if we want more than anything for you to really mean them.
9. If we cry in front of you, whatever happened to us must have been really bad or have hurt us a lot.
10. If you sing to us, even if you're not very good at it, we're like putty in your hands. Not even joking.
11. Don't treat us differently in front of your friends. If they're really your friends, why would you have to act different?
12. We like hugs. They make us feel safe.
13. We might watch the game with you, if you watch The Notebook [or whatever] with us. Some of us do actually enjoy watching the game with you though, so don't be too shocked if we slip on a team jersey.
14. Sometimes when you tell us we're pretty and we fight with you and say we're not, it's because we really don't believe that we are.
15. You don't just date us, you date our best friend too. [As in, they're going to be around quite a bit, so you might as well try to get along with them.]
16. We love your hoodies WAY more than our own. Mostly because they smell like you.
17. It's not mandatory for you to text, call, or IM first... but we really like it when you do.
