I was doing a little bit of research for merciless flirt and came across a blog called Ferocious Flirting: Making Marriage Wonderful. Combing through the archives for fun stuff, I came across a post on how kids think about love. Unfortunately I can’t link directly to the post, so here are some of my favorites. If you find one especially funny, tweet it. If you have others, add it in the comments.
Surefire ways to make a person fall in love with you:
- “Tell them that you own a whole bunch of candy stores.” – Del, age 6
- “Shake your hips and hope for the best.” – Camille, age 9
- “One way is to take the girl out to eat. Make sure it’s something she likes to eat. French fries usually works for me.” – Bart, age 9
Title of love ballads you can sing to your beloved:
- “‘How Do I Love Thee When You’re Always Picking Your Nose?'” – Arnold, age 10
- “‘Hey, Baby, I Don’t like Girls but I’m Willing to Forget You Are One!'” – Will, age 7
- “‘Honey, I Got Your Curly Hair and Your Nintendo on My Mind.'” – Sharon, age 9
What most people are thinking when they say “I love you”:
- “The person is thinking: Yeah, I really do love him. But I hope he showers at least once a day.” – Michelle, age 9
How a person learns to kiss:
- “You can have a big rehearsal with your Barbie and Ken dolls.” – Julia, age 7
When is it OK to kiss someone?
- “It’s never okay to kiss a boy. They always slobber all over you … That’s why I stopped doing it.” – Tammy, age 10
- “If it’s your mother, you can kiss her any time. But if it’s a new person, you have to ask permission.” – Roger, age 6
