What traits do you look for in a girl?
She has to have a good personality, can laugh at herself, have fun, and get along with my friends.

Blondes or brunettes?
I really don’t have a preference either way.

What’s the sexiest thing a girl can wear?
I’m not a big fan of sweats, but don’t mind yoga pants at all.

What is the first thing you notice in a girl?
It’s cliche, but probably her eyes.

Do you like when the girl makes the first move? 
I don’t think it’s a bad thing.  There’s no chance if you don’t try.
