"So, do you have a Tinder?"

A lot of girls get to college and have never had a boyfriend before. First relationships need to meet a lot of expectations, and it's hard for things to go right with a person you meet in a dirty bar. People are using Tinder to get dates with people who probably won't be around for more than a week and girls don't know if the guy they take to all of their sorority functions is into them or just their functions. Sometimes its hard not to wonder: so what do guys think about all of this?

Ladies, I asked a guy about his college experiences with girls and dating and these are his responses.

Do guys want to date in college?

*Sighs* "Not within the first two years."

What would make you want to date a girl in college?

"Her intellect and the conversation. I would want to know she's going to be more than just a "fun time." Don't be lame and have plans for the future. I don't know what else to say."

How would you feel about a girl approaching you at the bar?

"Uh, if a girl approaches me at a bar she just made my job 10x easier. It makes me feel good and gives me the confidence to carry on the conversation."

What about if you approach a girl at a bar? What would make you do that?

"If I go up to a girl its because my friends hyped me up. But like, its because we'd been talking about that girl. Its not a bet its like, 'yo, you need to go holla at that'."

Are you approaching her just to flirt or date?

"After the first 10 minutes of conversation I know if I'm trying to wife her or... ya know."

What's it mean when a guy asks a girl to meet him downtown?

"I'm trying to see if I like her around other people. If I was just trying to hookup I would just say it."

Speaking of meeting girls, do you have a Tinder?

*Laughing* "Yes."

What do you use your Tinder for?

"Tinder is for first dates only. You don't use Tinder to get a girlfriend."

So if you wanted to meet a nice girl, where would you meet her?

"Doing the sh*t you're supposed to be doing; eating, studying, going to class, or hanging out with friends."

Do guys talk about girls they actually like or just hookups?

*Uncomfortably smiling* "Now that can go both ways. Like what do you mean talk about them? They aren't going to talk about a girl they like until they are exclusive. If they talk about her too much their friends will put their opinions in it too much. Why you think you get a sudden influx of follow requests on Instagram? That's his friends trying to see what you look like."

Is there anything else you wish to say about females and dating in college?

"Never be afraid to approach a guy that you like and let him know that you like him. Chances are he likes you back and he just thinks you decided that you guys are just friends. We don't know when you like us."

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
