5 Ways Dating In College is Hard

In This Article:

College is a time of living your best life, but dating in college can be very hard at times.

Ghosting

There is nothing worse then waking up in one day to being left on read. When you snapchat/text them they still leave you on read until you never hear from them again. It can leave someone wondering what exactly went wrong, they can feel confused because as far as you knew everything was ok... until it wasn't. It does not take much to tell someone that it is not working out, not to mention it will make the person feel better to know what happened instead of constantly wondering.

sex is expected 

In my experience if a guy takes you on a date sex is expected. It is like the boys will actually be mad at you for not putting out on the first date.

You cannot say what you feel in the fear of "being crazy"

There has been so many times boys have done me wrong, and instead of telling them exactly how I feel I just suffer in silence. Girls get the label of being crazy just because they explain how they feel, and I think that is a shame.

There is never a label to anything

You can spend everyday with a boy for the past couple of weeks, spend the night with him, and text him constantly. However, the minute someone brings up the idea of defining the relationship things get weird and awkward.

You have to date boys who simply put are not it

When you are casually dating you can get discouraged quickly, you have to go through a lot of duds before you find a potential boyfriend.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
