Dating 101 from my 9th graders. For Valentine's Day we watched clips of Hitch and then wrote a paragraph pretending to be Hitch. Here are sentences gathered from my brilliant 9th graders. The M at the end of the sentence stands for "Written by a male" and the F at the end of the sentences stands for "Written by a female". They're pretty funny. Some are really insightful...for 9th graders.
If a girl asks, “How do I look?” always answer positively. M
When you are approaching for your first kiss, you do not want to make her kiss you. M
Be yourself. Typically, your date is gonna be as nervous as you are. M
When you talk, don't ramble on about your life. Ask questions. M
Women are complicated and I do not understand why they believe they need to fake tan until they are an ORANGE. M
To keep her, be a gentleman like the guys used to be. F
What most guys don't realize about women is, no matter how old they are, they always have the self-conscious teenage thing. F
Boys often need help with flirting. I find boys think being rude is flirting. For example, some boy might take your pencil and tease you with it. This is rude. NOT flirting. Be kind when you flirt. F
If she runs away when you hold her hand, don't try and hold her hand again. F
Guys: always ask a question about them, they usually like you to ask about how things are going for them. M
Girls, it's good to go up to a guy and talk. But don't follow them everywhere. M
How not to ask a girl out: “Yo, you! You is my girl now!” M
Most girls would rather hear beautiful or gorgeous rather than babe, sexy, or hot. F
When dating, relax or you might scare your date. M
Girls still need to send signals saying whether or not to kiss them. We don't know if they are grossed out or if we should move in. M
If you have to fart, go to the bathroom. M
Be yourself! M, F
How you speak to a woman is individual to the girl. M
No little side hugs! F
Girls like to be flattered. Tell girls they look beautiful, not hot. Be sincere and be nice. F

the last one is my favorite... I need to let Ky see that one. JK That's funny! How's your book by the way?
I need to start over from scratch! You've got such a good memory. I've changed it so much that I think it's not at all what it was at the beginning. I'll send you the original! P.s. We just went and saw a play and there was a girl in there with a great voice and she also looked like you! It was a double-take!
This is hilarious. I really liked the fake tan one. Sounds like a fun assignment.
