10 Guys You've Totally Dated

It's not you, it's him.

A lot of the time, searching for "the one" (or at least the one for now) is like searching for your size in the Sale section of a busy store: stressful, disappointing, and usually leaves you empty-handed. If you're lucky, you'll find that one thing that makes you forget how you ever lived before without it and amazed you found it in the mess. But, if you're like most people, that may take a while. You will probably end up trying on a lot of things that may not fit you as well as you had hoped they would.

1. The Hipster

Everything you like, he liked before it was cool. There is no underground indie rock band or coffee shop in Williamsburg he doesn't know. He probably has a beard.

2. The James Dean Wannabe

Ah, the bad boy. A tale as old as the invention of leather jackets. He probably owns a motorcycle (or really wants to) and has a tattoo or two. He's everything your parents would have hated. Maybe that's why you like him, or maybe his bad attitude matches his leather jacket perfectly. Most guys with bad boy images are actually bad or trying so hard to be "bad" that they become kind of problematic.


3. The Party Bro

This guy is the life of the party, and super fun - for a while. But when the party ends, it turns out this guy is not much more than the things he does on the weekends and the frat bros he hangs out with.

4. The Friend

You may try to date your friend because you guys already like each other, and why not? But not everyone can be Jamie and Dylan from the movie Friends With Benefits. Turns out, you like him a lot more as a friend than a boyfriend.

5. The Player

You might think that you can change him, he might even say you have. But he's still "hanging out" with more girls than you, and no, he never deleted tinder.

6. The Romeo

He tells you he's been hurt before, is super in touch with his emotions, and still believes in romance. He calls himself sensitive and he is - WAY too sensitive. But mostly just overly sensitive about his own feelings and not really about yours.

7. The Monogamist

Commitment is this guy's middle name. He probably has a good job or career path, and he's looking to settle down. Your relationship will probably escalate really fast - like picking out china patterns on the fourth date fast.

8. The Opposite

They say opposites attract. And that must be the case with this guy because he is everything you hate. His political views may be so unlike yours that you can't stand to have a conversation. His arrogance may be off the charts. He may hate your favorite movie and may love to wake up early to go to the gym. You have no idea why, but you're kind of loving it. For a while, at least.

9. The One That Got Away

The timing wasn't right, you two weren't in the same place at the same time. Whatever the reason, things didn't work out with this guy. But you'll always think of him in a nostalgic way.

10. The Great Guy, For Now

Whether you are coming out of a break-up, looking for a rebound, or just not particularly planning for the future, you date this guy for the present, not the future.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
