As collegiettes™, not only do we stay on top of our studies, we also know to make stilettos look comfortable, and have that magic ability to hold silent conversations with each other from across the room. Yet for some reason, we still just haven’t mastered the intricacies of a college guy’s mind. In reality, this is one exam you don’t want to fail! From a few real college guys around campus, here are 16 things guys wish girls already knew…
1. I wish girls had a little more guts and could tell me what they want to do instead of giving me two options to choose from with one being what you obviously want to do. I will choose the wrong one every time and have to stay in an argument with you about it for about thirty minutes. – Ryan Lassiter, junior in economics
2. I love it when girls buy me clothes. – Anonymous
3. I wish girls knew that we don’t live in their mind and half the time we don’t know what you are thinking. So please tell us instead of making us assume. – Carl Piland, sophomore in mechanical engineering
4. It’s not that I don’t care about your girl problems or that I’m not taking an interest in your life, but guys don’t function on the same level that you do. What you see as a huge problem, just doesn’t seem the same to me. I may not have the same experience dealing with those issues, so I may feel that my place at this time is best suited to listen. So, I’m not tuning you out, just listening, but that’s just me. – Tyler Stevens, senior in psychology
5. I wish girls knew that I’m not addicted to drugs, I just like experiencing life from a different angle sometimes. Just because I use them doesn’t warrant your disapproval, and if it makes you mad or you don’t like it, then don’t continue to talk to me. Im tired of girls thinking that just because we’re having sex they can change my lifestyle. Don’t try and change me in any way, because when you met me you liked me for my wild spirit and careless nature, that’s how I am, and if you want me to be different then find somebody different. – Anonymous
6. Guys shouldn’t have to be the ones to innitiate everything if a girl is that interested us. – Anonymous
7. If a guy is watching a game and isn’t paying a lot of attention to you, it doesn’t mean he isn’t interested in you. He’s just more interested in the game at the moment.– Anonymous
8. Guys can tell if you fake an interest. Speaking of fake, they can tell when you’re boobs are fake, and when you’re personality is. – Anonymous
9. Just because you think your tattoo looks great, doesn’t mean that guys love it. If you’re gonna tat it up, don’t be surprised if some guys turn the other way. – Anonymous
10. You don’t have to have perfect manners around us, but don’t act like you’re six years old either. – Anonymous
11. Don’t be afraid to tell a guy that you like him if he is too shy to tell you or doesn’t realize it. There’s a good chance that he at least likes you back as a friend. – Anonymous
12. Whatever you do, don’t play games with guys. Few things about girls are more irritating than that. Be honest with him, and he will be honest with you. Believe it or not, guys have feelings too! – Anonymous
13. Some guys just naturally fit with you in the friend zone. They either work well with you, like you as a person, and/or just mesh with you. They appreciate you, so let them know you appreciate them. They are the ones to stay in touch with after graduation. – Anonymous
14. I wish girls knew guys actually DO mean what they say, there’s no special code to decipher. – Derek Starnes, senior in business administration
15. If a girl thinks a guy is too good looking for her and is too shy to go up and talk to him, then she is probably wrong…because he is probably thinking the same exact thing about her, go talk to him. – Anonymous
16. If you say something and we laugh, it’s not always funny…sometimes, it’s the dumbest thing ever said, we’re just tryin not to be a jerk. Don’t act ditzy to get our attention. – Anonymous
