CRUSHES

His Answer: “Guys can act weird when it comes to romance because they think it makes them seem uncool and less manly,” says Bennett, 14, “but if he is straight up mean than that is just not right."

Decoded: Guys think that just because romance movies are girly, they can’t have a romantic side as well. They are too concerned about loosing their “man card” to take you out for a nice dinner or even tell you that he loves you. Although he may not be into the lovey dovey stuff, that does not give him a right to be rude to you, he can still be nice and not romantic.

Your Move: Assure your guy that you wont think less of him after romancing you for an evening. A nice dinner and movie would be much appreciative. Keep in mind that he may just be embarrassed around him friends so try to get him alone and dig the romance out of him. But if he is just straight up mean and doesn’t seem to care about you, ditch the dude and find someone who actually wants to shower you with roses on Feb. 14.
