MJ: On a first date, I like to bring a girl over to my house for a barbeque and a swim, especially on a warm summery evening! I know that some chicks get mad if bạn don't take them somewhere fancy and spend alot of money on them on a date, but I'm not interested in those kinds of girls. I want someone who I can feel comfortable with just sitting and talking to, hoặc sharing a fun, casual time with! I'm not sayin' that we wouldn't ever go out. I tình yêu to go out to movies, concerts, and restaurants, but I think it's important to know one another on a first date, and bạn can't if bạn go to watch somethin' all night!
Q: Are bạn a 'gentleman' on a date?
MJ: I never gave it much thought. Opening doors for girls is something that I just do automatically without thinking, like scratchin' my head when it itches! When you're taught all your life to do polite things for girls, bạn just can't forget it! It's một giây nature to you, like breathing hoặc tapping your feet to music!
Q: How do bạn feel about kissing on a first date?
MJ: I can dig it! I think that if bạn dig a chick enough to ask her out, you're crazy if bạn don't want to Kiss her. And, if she accepted the date, she likes bạn and probably wants to be kissed. So, I couldn't think of any reason why bạn shouldn't! I think I'd like to wait 'till the end of the ngày before I kissed her, though! I think most girls are afraid you're comin' on too fast if bạn Kiss them right away. But, if I could tell that chick I was with was just waitin' to be kissed, I wouldn't mess around wastin' time! I'd take her in my arms, bend her face back to rest on the back of her seat, and slowly lean toward her, gazin' into her eyes and talking in a slow, smooth voice. Then, I'd press my lips against hers, gently at first, then harder and harder until we're both Mất tích in a soul Kiss of true love.
Q: How do bạn feel about honesty between a guy and a girl?
MJ: I think that bein' honest with one another is important when you're gettin' serious with a chick, and don't want to have her goin' out with other guys. bạn have to be loyal and true to one another, hoặc your tình yêu will never last! But, when you're dating lots of chicks, and the chicks bạn ngày go with other guys, honesty isn't so important. Don't get me wrong, though! I don't think lyin' to someone is ever a good hoặc a smart thing to do! But, as long as bạn haven't made any promises to each other, bạn have the right to keep some things for yourself! For instance, if you've been dating a chick on and off and she dates other guys, and she asks bạn where bạn were when she phoned your house and didn't get an answer, I don't think it's any of her business to know bạn were out with a different girl! I don't think I have the right to pry into her life either!
Q: What would bạn do if bạn fell in tình yêu with a girl who was going steady with someone else?
MJ: Well, if I knew from the beginning that she was going with another guy, I probably wouldn't ngày her, no matter how much I wanted to! But, if I didn't know she was going steady, and I found out after I fell in tình yêu with her, I think I'd be pretty mad! Even if I thought that she didn't do it to be cruel, and was just too scared to tell him her true feelin's, I think I'd tell her in a kind, understanding way, to figure out what she was gonna do, and come back after she'd done it.
Q: Michael, what do bạn admire in others?
MJ: I admire people who are really dedicated to their âm nhạc and to entertaining people! That's why I admire Sammy Davis Jr, and hope to be like him when I grow up! He's a super professional, who puts a spell over his audience like some kind of magician. Singin' and dancin' his tim, trái tim out to give his audience a thrill they'll never forget. It takes many years to get like that, and that's my goal.
Q: What is the one thing bạn dislike in a person?
MJ: I guess it's conceited, snobbish people that really bother me! Some people are very egotistical, and think they're better than everyone else! They're always talkin' about themselves, and can't listen to bạn when you're trying to tell them something about yourself. They keep looking around to see if someone's lookin' at them, instead of looking directly at you, listening to what you're sayin'! It's like talking to a stone wall. When I meet a chick like that, I just turn off right away!
Q: Here's a hard câu hỏi - what one thing in your personality would bạn change if bạn could?
MJ: Well, my Mom says that I'm a procrastinator, which means that I put off things I don't want to do. I know that it's better to get things out of the way as soon as bạn can, like cleaning your room, hoặc doing your chores but sometimes I have a hard time gettin' around to them and keep putting them off!
