What certain guys seem to want: the great paradox.
Hey Girl,

Be beautiful all the time, but don’t try to hard.
Wear clothes that make you look hot, but don’t spend too much money on them.
Be easy to talk to, but don’t act like one of the guys.
Be funny, but remember that I’m always funnier.
Don’t act like you care about what you eat, but please don’t get fat.

Don’t be nerdy or weird, but don’t act dumb.
Don't be a prude, but don't be too sexual.
Call me, but don’t expect me to call you back.
Be an attentive girlfriend, but play hard-to-get.
If you love my music, you’re my soul mate... but don't make me listen to yours. (I'm not gay.)
Be honest with me, but don’t say anything I wouldn't want to hear.
Be pretty and flirty, but don’t act like a slut.
Don’t be needy or whiny... but need me.

Be a girl. But not too much of one.

Love,
Stereotypical Boy

NOTE: I am 16-year-old girl. This poem is based on my experience in the dating world. I'm sure there are guys out there who contradict the stereotype I portrayed here... I hope?
