What are guys looking for?

Dear Bro Jo,

So I’m just about sixteen and I was just wondering, what appeals to a guy? What would make a guy want to take me out on a date? and how do I not make a fool of myself so that when I’m older I can be OK with my dating years? I’m not desperate or a total creeper I just wanna have fun and know what I want to look for in a guy.

Dear Little Sister,

Guys want to go out with girls that are (in no particular order) fun, sweet, and do their best to look nice (you don't have to be a super model to get dates, and in fact, lot's of guys find that intimidating and off-putting). Most importantly, Good Guys who are planning on missions are looking to go out with girls who aren't going to pressure them into the Boyfriend-Girlfriend Thing.

You can find lots of information in my book "Bro Jo's guide to Casual Group Dating", on this website, and our Facebook Fan Page, including some great stuff in the notes pages - check them out!

There's even a discussion on the Facebook page called "What Guys Look for in a Girl" that you might find revelatory.

Have fun!

- Bro Jo
