51 Facts About Guys

Here are some facts I found online about Men's nature, I backed it up with my personal opinion as a Guy.

1. Guys hate sluts.

I definitely do hate sluts. who doesn’t? Maybe if a guy’s a jerk, they’d fit perfectly.

2. "Hey, are you busy?" or "Are you doing something?" ~ two phrases guys open with to stop from stammering on the phone.

Also, “Hey, how have you been?” I don’t usually stammer over the phone, instead Im just silent. 

3. Guys may be flirting around all day but before they go to sleep, they always think about the girl they truly care about.

I can’t flirt, I don’t know how and I don’t think I could fit in that character. Haha

4. Before they call, guys try to plan out a little about what they're gonna say so there aren't awkward pauses, but once he's on the phone he forgets it all and makes it up as he goes.

True, Im someone with go-with-the-flow syndrome, I guess. :P

5. Guys go crazy over a girl's smile.

Especially hers… Hey Jobee, you know who you are!

6. Guys will do anything just to get you to notice him.

As a quote is saying, I hate to look stupid, but if it’s the only way you’ll notice me, why not?

7. Guys hate it when you talk about your ex-boyfriend or ex love-interest. Unless they're goin for the let-her-complain-to-you-and-then-have-her-realize-how-wonderful-and-nice-you-are method.

Or, unless its me to ask you. Sometimes, history matters, but just that.

8. A guy who likes you wants to be the only guy you talk to.

Oh, guys are like animals then; Territorial.  :))

9. Boyfriends need to be reassured often that they're still loved.

Its passive. Showing love with your partner should be consistent. It always takes two to tango, relationships involves two people loving, not someone loving the other.  And I think if they do really love each other, exchange of love will happen overtime even without them knowing it. I suggest, the moment someone felt he/she’s being loved less, there’s something wrong with the relationship, and it needs to be worked out.

10. Don't talk about your guy friends to your boyfriend.

I prefer openness. I would love to know everything that happens about her, even the times that she’s around her guy friends.

11. Guys get jealous easily.

Yes. But unlike most girls, guys don’t usually show it right away, we may start asking questions to observe if there’s something to be bothered about. If you tell stories about other guys with a smile on your face, we’ll feel very threatened.

12. Guys are more emotional than they'd like people to think.

That’s me, I hate people to pity me. Id rather show am strong and rude, than be called a crybaby.

13. Giving a guy a hanging message like "You know what?!..uh...nevermind.." would make him jump to a conclusion that is far from what you are thinking. And he'll assume he did something wrong and he'll obsess about it trying to figure it out.

I am persistent asking until answered. Haha, makulit ako eh. :D

14. Guys are good flatterers when courting but they usually stammer when they talk to a girl they really like.

Hmm, no idea. But personally, when I like someone, I would love to compliment her in every way but I find it hard to catch the right words and the right moment to do so.

15. Guys hate asking parents for money to buy girls presents. So they come up with ideas like saving their lunch money for a week. But it never works because guys are always hungry so they end up asking the parents for money anyway.

Crap, this doesn’t apply for someone self-sustained as I. I never asked for money from my parents to treat a girl. That’s just shameful, haha.

16. Girls are guys' weaknesses.

No comment. :D

17. Guys are very open about themselves.

(To the girl Im interested with) You can ask me anything, and I’ll answer casually. Its my pleasure to share you who I am, I don’t mind telling you my flaws because I don’t need to impress to be liked. I wanted to be accepted for who and how I am at my worst.

18. It's good to test a guy first before you trust him. But don't let him wait too long.

Patience is virtue though. :P

19. Your best friend, whom your boyfriend seeks help from about his problems with you may end up being admired by your boyfriend.

I don’t know, never been through this case. :D

20. If a guy tells you about his problems, he just needs someone to listen to him. You don't need to give advice.

Most guys are just too hard headed, we might listen but we don’t need the advice, we always have the decisions in mind already and what we need is just your support or approval.

21. A usual act that proves that the guy likes you is when he teases you.

This comes out naturally, right?

22. Guys love you more than you love them if they are serious in your relationships.

First things first, make sure he’s serious and you have nothing to worry about. If a guy is sincere, he can do everything for you.

23. Guys will brag about anything.

That’s given, lahat naman may tinatagong yabang. Or whenever a guy is talking to a girl he likes, ofcourse he would try his best to impress her about the things he could do.

24. Guys use words like hot or cute to describe girls. We rarely use beautiful. If a guy uses that, he likes you.

You’re beautiful… :)

25. Guys think WAY too much. One small thing a girl does, even if she doesn't notice it can make the guy think about it for hours, trying to figure out what it meant.

Thinking’s just my norms. So it would be helpful if you always get straight to the point if you want to say something. It’ll keep me from thinking way out of the line, and will help you avoid being misunderstood.

26. Guys seek for advice from girls not other guys. Because most guys think alike, so if one guy's confused, then we're all confused.

Makes sense.

27. Any guy could write out a rulebook or advice book for flirting, but no guy can write out a book about relationships.

The opposite for me I must say. Im not a handsome guy, I have not experienced all kinds of flirting. You could check out my old personal articles in this blog, I’ve posted articles about love and relationships that might be of help to you.

28. Guys always try to be as straightforward as possible.

Of course. What you see is what you get, doesn’t apply to every guy thou, but for me, being yourself and saying things straight makes a guy a man.

29. A guy has to experience rejection, because if he's too-good-never-been-busted, never been in love and hurt, he won't be mature and grown up.

Ive been through tons of this – rejection. Not from the girls, cause I don’t usually approach women. I am socially detached to most people around me, because Im different, particularly when I was younger. Being bullied is my game and that’s why I grew tough in the outside.

30. If the guy does something stupid in front of the girl, he will think about it for the next couple days or until the next time he spends time with the girl.

I have good memories, so I can’t easily forget the stupid things that I’ve done. Haha.

31. No matter how much guys talk about asses and boobs, personality is key.

Compatibility is the key, for me. No matter who you are, even if our differences are huge, nor our attitudes don’t match, as long as we complement each other, as long as we’re happy when we’re together, its perfect.

32. Guys learn from experience not from the romance books that girls read and take as their basis of experience.

Especially when you’re a risk taker like me, you get to experience different situations and problems. Maybe Ive done a lot of mistakes, but it only means Ive learned a lot of lessons as well.

33. Guys worry about the thin line between being compassionate and being whipped.

No comment.

34. If a guy looks unusually calm and laid back, he's probably faking it and is spazzing inside.

Nervous inside? In my case, whenever I cant say a word and make a firm grin, that means am trembling inside.

35. When a guy says he is going crazy about the girl, he really is. Guys rarely say that.

Ive told that to a girl just recently.. :P

36. When a guy asks you to leave him alone, he's just actually saying, "Please come and listen to me."

Maybe for some. Most of the times, guys say harsh or unusual things and they mean it. Maybe it depends on the situation, if he’s arguing with someone, definitely he means it if he’ll ask you to go fcuk off. But if he’s gloomy and sad, and he told you to leave with a cold voice, its more likely that he wants you to do otherwise. People around guys, specially their partners needs to be sensitive enough to simply understand their feelings.

37. Guys don't really have final decisions.

Yes, guys may act authoritative at times. But most of the time we are very considerate, you could tell that easily ‘cause guys always tend to ask first before making any decision whenever they are with someone or a group.

38. If a guy starts to talk seriously, listen to him. It doesn't happen that often, so when it does, you know something's up.

Guys differ in attitude; there are noisy and friendly guys and also the silent and awkward one. But they probably have a thing in common, when they’re serious, they’ll say things that truly matters. Guys might be the most hilarious and ridiculous creature you can be with, but when chances asked for it, they could be the most serious and sincere too.

39. If your best guy friend seems to avoid you or is never around when you're with your boyfriend, he's probably jealous and likes you.

No idea. :D

40. When a guy looks at you for longer than a second, he's definitely thinking something.

If a guy looks at you in the eye and smile, it doesn’t always mean he’s checking out your face. A guy might show appreciation about your beauty and looks through words, but staring at you for long means more than simple admiration. You can make the wildest guess about what’s running on his mind, and its likely the same.

41. Guys like femininity not feebleness.

If you’re a girl and is committed, be as conservative as you can be, naturally and he will definitely appreciate it even without words.

42. Guys don't like girls who punch harder than they do.

Not a big deal though.

43. A guy has more problems than you can see with your naked eyes.

Guys have big egos. Too stubborn to admit they’re problematic. But maybe if he's close enough to someone, he might feel at ease sharing everything that bothers him, and he'll surely let his emotions flow if needed.

44. Don't be a snob. Guys can be intimidated and give up easily.

Guys don’t usually need attention from the crowd or peers. But when it comes to their partner, they need most of the attention you could give them.

45. Everything in moderation. Put on makeup, wear perfume. Just not too much.

Simplicity is beauty. Unless you are going to a f*ckin pageant, you don’t need to put on a lot of make up or dress like parrot to be called beautiful. We guys can’t be impressed with the likes of that. Let your hair down, wear a plain shirt, a jeans and a sneakers. Perfect. :)

46. Guys talk about girls more than girls talk about guys.

That I can’t say for sure. Maybe? :P

47. Guys hate rejection, but they hate being led on even more.

Men are always men, even thou most of them are not sexist, it’s a fact that guys still have larger egos than girls.

48. Guys really think that girls are strange and have unpredictable decisions and are MAD confusing but somehow are drawn even more to them.

Women are complicated beings. There are so many factors and situations that could affect their mood. There’s a lot of reason that might change their mind, plans and beliefs in just a second. If this article states 51 Facts About Guys, there could be a Thousand Facts About Women, maybe millions? Haha

49. A guy would give his left nut to be able to read a girl's mind for a day.

That’s hilarious, although I must admit it’s true.

50. No guy can handle all his problems by his own. He's just too stubborn to admit it.

Im still looking for that someone to whom I could finally freely breathe out everything.

51. Not all guys are assholes. Just because ONE is a jackass doesnt mean he represents ALL of us.

Not all guys are boys, few are true men.

10 Skills Every Guy Should Know

Guys are expert in NOTHING, but we must be practiced in many things. SKILLS! We don’t have to master them all at once. We simply have to collect and develop a certain number of skills as days tick by.

We Should Be Able To:

1. Throw a Punch – Knowing how to throw a good punch when the situations calls for it wouldn’t mark our reputation. Rule of thumb: Swing with your shoulders, not your arm. Forget about a roundhouse punch or haymaker, we’re not Manny Pacquiao. If you can strike hard enough using the heel of your palm, go with it. It serves the same purpose.

With this thin arms of mine, nah.. I know I couldn’t throw a punch, and I’ve been taking care of my hand since birth, for my talent preservation purposes? lolx But if it comes to self-defense, am sure am not a lowbie.. Instead to punch, I kick. I’m training taekwondo, footwork-so I guess I’ve an edge- running fast? haha

2. Name a good book – Twilight doesn’t count. Sorry.

Whew, our old house was a junk shop of reading materials-from books, to magazines, encyclopedia, newspapers etc. That made me a boy who’s interested in the wild-life. I’m not into science.. errr

3. Commute – Learn how to commute. There’s nothing sexier to a woman than having a man on her side with a good sense of direction. Trust me.

Like that’s my life, I want to travel someday. I never stayed a long week just steady at home. More than commuting, I must say I love walking and biking more.

4. Shuffle a deck of cards – Come on! Don’t even try to play cards with a girl and ask her to shuffle it for you. It doesn’t work. Practice how to do it now!

Can I say pass? I really don’t play cards.

5. Speak to an 8 year-old – Use his first name. Don’t use baby talk. Don’t crank up your energy to match his. Don’t pretend to be interested in Power Rangers, Gundam X or Street Fighter. He’s as bored with that shit as you are. Concentrate instead on seeing the child as a person of his own.

Mommy said, don’t talk to strangers! I mean, I’m not the man to tell stories or to entertain kids. But I’m not a snob, maybe when the chance knocks me to be jolly and keep a company of a kiddo, why not? Hmm I guess I’ve some experience- more with some childish people out there, who’s that? hehe

6. Say NO.

As a son, brother or to strangers- No means no. I don’t even lift a finger to do things I don’t want to do. Who are you? Should I care? But its different, maybe the exact opposite when it comes to those few who made me think am their friend, to those who matters to me, especially to someone I love. I can’t just say no to favors, and all.

7. Give advice that matters in ONE SENTENCE – Make sure your advice makes sense. Like.. “When in doubt, don’t” or “When nobody has your back, you gotta move your back.” Give them the best advice they’ll ever get. One sentence - Boom.

I know I can give advices; I speak seldom but you must be sure you’ll listen. Some say I can be a psychologist, but most says am a psycho..freak. Well, I could care less. Too few we’re able to hear me – and much fewer listens.

8. Tell if someone is lying – Everyone has his technique in catching a liar. But not all of them work. Liars change the subject almost instantaneously. Liars look up and to their right when they speak. Liars will sometimes stare dead straight into your eyes and employ a dead face. Just pick one and test it.

Most guys need no effort on this. Usually, guys are gifted with pretty good instincts, and I’ve proven it already a lot of times. Sometimes it’s passive, when am not even aware what I am thinking about something/someone was right. As for women, their intuitions are quite impressive –but most of the times, went too much far to being judgmental and worst; paranoid.

9. Swim – at least three different strokes. Doggy paddle won’t cut it. Learn two more. LOL

I love swimming, I want to stay in the pool and swim alone. Since I’m not into partying, mingling, videoke nor “Inuman” during swimming night outs.

10. Console a crying woman – Keep a handkerchief on your person. A clean one, since it’s not for you. Never approach a woman who is merely weeping or teary. Say “I’m sorry to disturb you, but is there anything I can do to help?” Whether she responds or not, offer the folded handkerchief. Point out that it’s clean. This should make her laugh. If she tells you to go away, do so immediately. If she says she’s fine tell her to keep the hanky.

I hate this, and to be into some crying situations – specially when I know I’m involved. I’m not good comforting a crying woman; I would rather play numb and just let her be. Crying as far as I believe is their biggest “blackmail”, ever! But it’s inevitable, can’t just avoid it. So, I would try the least that I could to be a “man”. hehe
