Okay, this is a little long but.
So there's this guy. He's very attractive, very confident, and acts like he doesn't need anyone. We were flirting one day and he was teasing me about this guy everyone thought I was dating. I jokingly said "We're already trying to get pregnant. " Then he got all serious and started telling me about what he wanted to name his kids and how many he wanted to have but several weeks before this one of his friends was talking about how this guy is totally uninterested in ever getting married or having kids.
If that's true why would he say what he did to me?

He probably told you what he REALLY thinks about getting married and having kids, and was only putting on a 'tough guy' front for one of his buddies. The fact that you said he 'acts like he doesn't need anyone' leads me to believe he's a bit of a cocky s. O. B. , so he probably was trying to make it seem like he was never going to be tied down by a female in front of his friends to retain his reputation, but when he was alone with you he probably let the truth come out. Typical guy, but this does show a bit of insecurity.

Because he actually Does want kids and to get married. Maybe the seriousness of the conversation got through his defenses and he spilled his guts to you that he actually does want kids. I don't know any guys that would joke about this, or so easily, especially if he, as you said, suddenly got serious.

Maybe what he says to his friends and what he really thinks are two different things. Some guys feel the need to act like "players" around their friends (particularly male friends) and often it's just not considered cool for a young guy to want a family.

If he thinks you're already going out with someone, he won't be scared to tell you that he wants kids because you're not likely to call him on it or tell anyone like a girlfriend or potential girlfriend might.

These are just ideas that spring to mind, but in reality his motivations may be completely different. The only way to really be sure is to try and subtly ask him.

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
Er... right, my ideal first date would be a nice meal somewhere nice. This would hopefully be a good setting where we could chat and get to know each other. We could then go somewhere for a walk to carry on the conversation. The night would then end with me walking her home and with any luck a plan for when we could meet up again

Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
My date would probably know my life story *blush*. No, she would know exactly what she wanted to know about me. She would hopefully notice that I'm not a guy that expects sex on the first date and that I really enjoy listening to what a girl has to say

Would you date me?
