-I don't know any girl who isn't a sucker for flowers or thoughtful gestures. Just don't go overboard into the "crazy desperate psycho stalker" category and it's all good, lol.
-This should go without saying but a guy who is clean and always smells good is a plus (there are some out there who sadly don't fit into this category).
-Someone who has some ambition for their life, and a passion for things (whether it's art, music, athletics... it doesn't matter much).
-Someone who is not always negative, everyone likes to be around people that lift them up, not bring them down. Long heart-felt discussions about worries, fears and problems are AWESOME... but it shouldn't be an every hour or every day thing.
-Someone who can carry on an easy conversation with me. Who can talk about themselves and the things in their lives, but also listen and encourage me to do the same.
The only "game" I'll ever give merit to is playing hard to get a little bit. If you overwhelm a girl at first and act as though she's the love of your life and you can't live without her, she very well may get scared off. Express interest, pursue her casually, be honest... but don't press things emotionally or physically too soon. Let things take their natural course and develop between the two of you without forcing it because you're overly eager.
Ok... that's April's Love 101... I'm going to go raid food now, lol.
