Poll for teenage girls: what do you look for in a boyfriend?
Question by JohnD: Poll for teenage girls: what do you look for in a boyfriend?
My son (seventh grade) has recently started a “dating”-type relationship with a girl at school. This is after a one-year relationship ended a few months ago. The two of them aren’t going much beyond talking on the phone and/or texting until all hours at this point, but today is their first “date” type outing – the young lady’s father is taking her to the zoo, and she invited him along.
I have conveyed my values and expectations to him, and given him my own insights into what I believe women want from a boyfriend. However, I concede that I am a bit old-fashioned and perhaps not as attuned to the relationship dynamics involved today. For example, even when I was dating his mother, texting wasn’t as prevalent … but his mom still enjoyed the quick “hey, I was just thinking about you” voice mail on her phone.
I believe certain things never go out of style … holding the door for her, being respectful, using “sir” and “ma’am” to address her parents, etc. However, I also acknowledge that some things have changed.
So … for the teenage girls out there: what do you expect from a boy you’re in a relationship with?
And … parents of teenage girls: what do you expect from a boy your daughter has a relationship with?
