Ash 19, Mornington Peninsula“I love it when guys smile and laugh around with you, but it can’t be fake. You have to have a fun connection with someone, otherwise move on to the next girl! If you’re naturally funny, go with it — you might find she is just as funny as you. It all depends on how well you play your cards after you get the look of, ‘Yes, sir, I’d like to take you home!’”
Kristie26, Brisbane“I’m impressed by a man who doesn’t seem like he’s trying to impress me. It’s quite simple, really —be confident, flash me your most killer smile, don’t stare at my boobs, hold the BS, and most importantly, don’t take yourself too seriously. I love a guy who makes me laugh!”
Alinta 23, Eagle Heights“The best way for a guy to get in my good books would be to talk to me without that glint in his eye, to make me feel as though there was no pressure for me to get my gear off in ten minutes’ time, to make me aware that he wants to know me, not just tell me how hot I look. So guys, lay off the cheesy compliments and actually be friendly.“
Sarah 24, Melbourne“Girls love to be spoiled, but that doesn’t mean spending a week’s wages in the process. I love special little gestures and surprises — things as simple as a really nice text or a note left on the bedside table after a saucy night out.”
Alisha24, Gold Coast“A guy could invite a girl to go to the beach with him. That way, you get to see each other in swimsuits, you’re in public and if you don’t like him, you’re nowhere near the bedroom. But if you do like him, there might be a nice dune somewhere!”
Chantell26, Logan City“Most guys lie about everything they are. Get real! Most girls don’t believe you anyway, so you may as well be honest. Unless your name is Bob, you’re 60, homeless, and you’re a repo guy, it can’t be that bad. So just be honest. Simple!”
Asha21, Gold Coast“The best way for a guy to impress a girl is to stop trying. Most women can tell instantly when you are. The conversation is awkward, boring, and she will more than likely try to avoid you the next time she sees you. And stop obsessing with your appearance. Any form of tanning, waxing and obsessing with your hair style and body image are complete turn-offs. Be a manly man, not a girly one.”
Gemma21, Gold Coast“If a guy is average-looking but has a gorgeous smile and plays the guitar, then I will fall in love. Being able to make me laugh, being confident, and smelling amazing will also earn five stars next to their name. Not to be too specific, but if a guy’s also half-Maori, then he’s doing bloody well!”
