DECODE HIS...<br />
FAVORITE SUMMER DATE<br />
Sadly, covering your naked body with ice cream<br />
and licking it off is not an everyday option—due<br />
to the calories (him), the cold (you), and the<br />
cleanup (probably you). But these other go-to<br />
dates reveal tons about his boyfriend MO.<br />
CONCERT<br />
QUICK TAKE<br />
Since he got tix<br />
ahead of time, he’s<br />
clearly a plan-in-advanceder<br />
(score),<br />
and he likes to<br />
shake it (score<br />
again).<br />
DEEPER DIVE<br />
Loud music makes<br />
talking hard. So he<br />
could be more into<br />
his music cred than<br />
he is into you.<br />
WATCH FOR<br />
If he’s a little more<br />
into his music, be<br />
sure to watch his<br />
alcohol in-take. He<br />
may be one of hardcore<br />
rocker.<br />
THE BEACH<br />
QUICK TAKE<br />
Hitting the sand with<br />
you is just his excuse<br />
to see you half<br />
naked, so he can<br />
picture you riding,<br />
uh, more than the<br />
wave.<br />
DEEPER DIVE<br />
You get to peep at<br />
his hotness too—oh<br />
six pack! Be warned<br />
he may be a little<br />
more into your bod<br />
than your brains.<br />
WATCH FOR<br />
If he’s an image<br />
guy, then try to see<br />
if he’s looking at<br />
guys. Then he’s not<br />
really into you<br />
A PICNIC<br />
QUICK TAKE<br />
If you manage to<br />
find a guy who will<br />
voluntarily plan a<br />
date by definition<br />
(all talk and no<br />
action, go ahead<br />
and give him some<br />
action.)<br />
DEEPER DIVE<br />
He wants to get to<br />
know you for you—<br />
aka he’s BF Material.<br />
YAY!<br />
DEEPER DIVE<br />
Be sure that it’s not<br />
too good to be true.<br />
Guy’s have a bucket<br />
list & this may be<br />
one of them. Keep<br />
everything in check.<br />
ARIES SEXICON<br />
vintage<br />
boyfriend<br />
(noun.) An old boyfriend who’s pretty<br />
lame, but you find yourself going<br />
back to him in between better guys<br />
because, well, he’s around. And he<br />
knows what you like in bed. Kyle:<br />
I’m pretty sure I’ve hit an all-time<br />
dating low. I’m hooking up with my<br />
vintage boyfriend again. He’s just<br />
so easy. How lazy can I get?<br />
The Rise of<br />
the (Viral)<br />
Grand Gesture<br />
Okay, so maybe he’s not<br />
going to stand outside your<br />
window and blast In Your<br />
Eyes from a boombox like<br />
Lloyd Dobler did, but we’re<br />
in a new age of the viral<br />
grand gesture. Recently, am<br />
anonymous NYC guy put up<br />
600 fliers with the hashtag<br />
#ThisIsHowImGoingToWinHerBack<br />
all over the city<br />
to try to win his ex back. His<br />
efforts, alas, didn’t work, but<br />
he’s just the latest in a slew of<br />
men who are trying to dispel<br />
their growing rep as wimpy<br />
beta boys by posting love<br />
declarations online. While<br />
public gestures like viral proposal<br />
videos seem natural to<br />
them since they’ve grown up<br />
in a social-media world, let it<br />
be known: Flowers work too!<br />
That said, we’ll take romance<br />
anytime we can get it.<br />
t<br />
“I told him I was one<br />
year older at first to<br />
seem mature. Now<br />
it’s this stupid lie that I<br />
have to keep up!”<br />
—Chris C., 25<br />
“My boyfriend’s roommate<br />
is so hot, but I tell<br />
my him he’s average so<br />
my BF won’t get jelly<br />
over it all.”<br />
—Greg Y., 23<br />
“I have sex dreams<br />
about his dad, but i<br />
keep it secret from both<br />
of them for obvious<br />
reasons. ”<br />
—Nick G., 24<br />
“When I found out that<br />
he cheated on me,<br />
I slept with his twin<br />
brother to get back at<br />
him in my mind. ”<br />
—Brian T., 26<br />
