    Hello, My name is Tim Jones-15. I am a sophmore. I am 5′7″. I make decent grades(A’s, B’s, and the occasional C). I am on my high school football teem as a 2nd string linebacker. I have not had much luck dating so far. I have had only 3 girlfriends. The kind of girl that I like are those who are pretty AND nice. Because it shows that even though they have good looks, they aren’t full of themselves like many pretty girls are and it shows that they are a good person.

    Hey. I’m Jenna, 16, and have never had a boyfriend. The kind of guy I want to date is kind, sweet, generous, a gentlemen, a good sense of humor, and loves the Lord. A guy that can just let loose and be a dork, a guy that actually cares about me and wants to know what’s on my mind. Oh, and it be great if you were cute, lol.

  9. Amanda on May 25th, 2010 3:16 pm

    Hi, my Name is Amanda and I am 16y.o. I’m trying to meet new people, girls or Guys. I’m a Christian who is surrounded by non-christians and I really would love to speak to other people who share the same love that I have with God. I’m still in the process of changing myself to be who God wants me to be. And my dating is really bad. So, my next try is definitely a christian Guy who loves the Lord and tries hard to follow the Laws of God.

    I’m Marily, I’m 14 (15 on December). I am very mature for my age, sometimes mistaken as a 17-year-old, I love Jesus Christ with all my heart and I would love to meet a guy who feels the same way as I do about him. I live in Los Angeles, and well, it’s awesome. I live a happy life (Courtesy of the Lord our God) and would love to share my love and hapiness with a sweet, honest, caring and understanding male from the ages of 15-17. I love myself for who I am, and I would like a guy who will love ME for who I am.
