1. Mind precedes all mental states. Mind is their chief; they are all mind-wrought. If with an impure mind a person speaks or acts then suffering follows him like the wheel that follows the foot of the ox.
2. Mind precedes all mental states. Mind is their chief; they are all mind-wrought. If with a pure mind a person speaks or acts then happiness follows him like his never-departing shadow.
3. "He abused me, he struck me, he overpowered me, he robbed me." Those who harbor such thoughts do not still their hatred.
4. "He abused me, he struck me, he overpowered me, he robbed me." Those who do not harbor such thoughts still their hatred.
5. Hatred is never appeased by hatred in this world. By non-hatred alone is hatred appeased. This is a law eternal!

This is by no means an inclusive or a complete list but here are some things girls should know about guys. Also feel free to add your points in the comments.
1. guys will never truly like girls, who mess around with every guy, they may mess around with you, and act like they like you but if they know and see you with a whole bunch of other guys, they will never ever truly have feelings for you
2. guys like it when girls mess up a little when flirting, makes them feel more comfortable
3. bottom line, if guys want you, then he will get you, no matter how shy, or insecure he is
4. guys are so confused about girls, unlike guys all girls have their own different, unique thought process, guys all have similar thinking, if ones confused about something, then most likely they all are.
5. guys may get shy around a girl they are interested in, but they will not ignore a girl they want
6. guys usually like to talk to other girls about the girl they like if they need serious advice
7. guys will mainly tell their guy friends stuff about a girl they like if its about her appearance not her personality, if they do they really like her
8. guys will walk the long way, if it means walking by her
9. guys will stare longer at the girl that he's got his mind on
10. guys think way more about girls, then girls think about guys
11. little things that a girl do, will have him thinking about the meaning of it for hours
12. guys plan out what there going to say to a girl before he talks to her, but in the moment he's talking to her, he will completely say whatever because he usually forgets his plan
13. guys are attracted to girls even though they are confused about them, and everything they do...still they are interested, if not more interested
14.guys love it when a girl wears his jacket
15. guys love when girls smell yummy
16. guys love to look at girls, when their not looking, and sometimes even when they are looking
17. if he's interested he will always want your attention
18. guys get jealous easily, they want to feel that you want them as much as they want you
19. guys would like to feel like they are being chased a little bit too
20. right before going to bed, they will think of the one girl they really care about
21. if they were really in it for you, they wouldn't just want sex, they would respect you, and prefer to cuddle
22. guys are blind when it comes to a girl giving them signs about how she feels, you might as well flat out tell them
23. sometimes guys like a chase, but they don't like a tease
24. guys don't wanna be embarrassed in front of their friends
25. when they come up to you, and initiate a convo,or ask for your number and not just give you theirs, its a big thing for them, they are basically, risking the possibility of their ego taking a hit
26. mystery draws them in
27. guys don't like to see girls cry, so they might try to help you with personal issues, but don't always want to hear them
28. guys dont want to look whipped in front of their friends, and if they don't care that means they like you a whole lot
29. if he looks at you longer then normal, and often, then that is def. telling u something about how he feels
30. if he looks at your eyes in a convo, then he wants to know more about who you truly are
31. a guy will plan a surprise for a girl that he really cares about but after its over he wants you to make him feel special for doing it, acknowledge his effort, he simply wants to bring you the joy you bring him
32. if a guy starts a serious conversation..listen...because then its serious
33. he will always want to hang out with you, he will take every opportunity to be with you, no matter where it is
34. be careful, if he really loves you, you might have the power to turn him against his parents and/or friends
35. if within the first week of knowing him, he speaks to you in a sexual way, or acts like that's all he wants, its highly likely
36. guys want to be loved just as much s girls want to be loved
37. drama is a no no when your trying to keep a guy interested, they'll look at you like its a chore to keep you out of trouble
38. guys aren't that interested in girls with bad reputations
39. he will always act different around his friends than he does with you, unless hes completely into you
40. guys are just as emotional, if not more, than girls, girls just show it more
41. guys learn experience from the mistakes they've made, while girls learn from magazines, books and movies
42. guys will always be at least semi-confused
43. guys will never forget the girl , that got away
44. personality is always going to be the root of why they like you, so stay yourself
45. guys might stammer or say something dumb, and they wont let it go, they will think about it on and off the whole day or till they see you next
46. guys might give little tests to see how true the girl is
47. guys like to see girls eat (if there neat)
48. guys like a girl whose not afraid to be themselves, and just be able to kick back sometimes, and be chill

Note: Brackish is an another exquisite word I love. Discovered it in the phrase, “A brackish reach of shoal off Madaket”…
the opening line in poem by Robert Lowell about the drowning of Warren Winslow off Nantucket Sound.

"website for teens"
is it your contention that merely "being in love" is what prompted you to search out a site such as this???
are you truly concerned for the well-being of 13 year oldes???
or,
are you in "interested" in 13 year oldes???
Originally posted by rookie54Unsure as to where you got the idea that this thread focuses on 'teens'. "money or love" I'm quite sure is still the topic. Am I wrong twice in the same night?

P.S. Never guilty of "search out a site such as this". July, 2007, my only son called one Saturday afternoon and said,
"Hey, Dad, I've got a great site you might enjoy." So, in a sense, the site found me. Rest is cyberspace history...
