First of all you shouldn't change for someone, they should like you for who you are. Corny jokes get really annoying. I have a boyfriend, he's really sweet and compliments me, it makes me feel good. But here's the point, treat her with care and passion and be yourself. Don't think burping and farting is a good way to attract us girls one burp here and there is all right but the farts gotta go, they STINK! If a girl looks pretty tell them, dont just stare at them they will get really creeped out. But in one way they might come and ask why you were staring at them and then that could start a relationship.

Walk up to her give her a good compliment then walk away she will have the urge to chase after you, and trust me she will, then you can keep her chasing or date her.

Most girls like funny boys so don't be afraid to crack a joke, but not a corney joke. If she is a dark (Emo/Goth) go though being a dark (Emo/Goth), if you are not already. Good healthy boys, like most girls, do NOT like the pants being down so you can see your underwear. And DO NOT be hard to GET.

The one before me was good. Just talk to her. Be funny and sweet. But dont be pushy. I am a girl and I had a boyfriend recently that followed me everywhere; lets just say it didnt last very long. DONT BE CLINGY! And don't be hard to get; if she asks you if you like her dont say i dont know or maybe. Girls HATE it and just want a straight up anwser.

Exactly, and also if the girl likes you chances are she is thinking of you when you're not together so its a good thing not to be clingy.


Boys have done that to me before and I thought it was plain weird.

I am a boy and from experience the person who first answered is quite right. I found the perfect girl but no, burping is horrible and farting, try to hide it, this is to the guys. You just act yourself and if they don't like who you really are then they aren't worth the pain.


Where I'm from you need to look like Edward Cullen and Christiano Ronaldo! That's ALL girls care about, looks nothing else! I don't have a girlfriend and probably won't because I am not a footballer or have sparkling skin. The statement about there is always a person for someone seems wrong to me! I know people that half there life is over and never meet anybody!


Attracting a girl is hard some times. I know because boys at my school go for the girls with thier noses in the air. Girls like it if you just be yourself. If your not cool then I don't know, but still. I did like this boy, gosh he was wow. But he was himself and I could see the way he started to act around me he liked me. He was in year 9 and I was in year 6 but I liked him so. It was him being himself that attracted me and no I did wish he said he liked me beacuse I'll never know.

I'm a guy! I have a really great personality but sometimes that means absolutely nothing! Tell a girl hi and she looks the other way. Offer her a hand shake and she just stands and stares at your hand in scorn. Smile at her and she pulls a face. Go out on a first date with her and although everything goes well she never speaks to you after. Try to make them laugh and they make you look like an idiot in public. You know how embarrassing it is to tell a girl good morning in public and she completely ignores you?

Sometime you reach a point where its better to just leave people alone and save yourself embarrassment.

I think the best thing is being funny. I'm funny and it attracts guite a few girls.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't try to impress girls its just plain stupid! Just be yourself because girls do not like guys who try to be something the're not. And dont show off or act older than you really are!

Don't act cool! That just makes the girl think that you're arrogant. Being funny works, but no jokes. Just drop in a funny comment here and there, and don't be too sarcastic. if you're having trouble getting a girl, think about the kind a girl you want and then think about the kind of girl you are trying to attract. Do the lists match up?

Sun halo wows Ethiopia amid poll














Churchgoers hailed the sun halo as a miracle


A halo around the sun startled people in Ethiopia during Sunday's local elections, with many seeing it as a miracle or a sign from God.

The ring of light caused by sunlight refracted by ice crystals hung in the sky for almost an hour before it finally faded and disappeared.

Some Ethiopians say it last appeared in 1991 before a military regime fell.

But the BBC's Elizabeth Blunt in Addis Ababa says there is little chance it could augur change this time.

She says the overwhelming majority of candidates are from the government party.

Churchgoers who had flocked to see the visiting Patriarch of Alexandria, Pope Shenouda, acclaimed the phenomenon as a miracle, or at least a sign of a blessing from God.

Thank you, God, for revealing a sign
Abuna Paulos, Patriarch of Ethiopia

Pope Shenouda himself believed it was a signal from above.

"We accept any sign from God to encourage us in our way," he said, "and confirm that we are going right in our way."

Abuna Paulos, the Patriarch of Ethiopia, added his voice to those who believe in signs from God.

"If God reveals himself from the sky," he told a press conference, "we believers do not get surprised. We only rejoice and double our efforts to thank God. Thank you, God, for revealing a sign."

Dictatorship

But others looked for more secular implications.

Older people in Addis Ababa remember seeing the ring around the sun once before - in the last days of the Derg, the despised military dictatorship, just before its leader Mengistu Haile Mariam fled to Zimbabwe.

But there is little prospect of the government falling in these elections.

The opposition winners of the controversial elections in 2005 in urban areas never took their seats and did not stand again.

The most successful of the other opposition parties pulled out, complaining of intimidation and our correspondent says the results are almost certain to consolidate the ruling party's hold on power.

Results have not been published yet but an election official said turnout had been massive.
