He's Just Not That Into You

Accept it and move on.

He's Just Not That Into You

Ladies, we have all either been in this situation or witnessed it with a friend. We have all been asked by our friends before “why isn’t he texting me back?” or “why won’t he ask me to hang out?” The answer is simple: he’s just not that into you.

Since our brains are complicated, we love to overthink things and are always looking for answers that aren’t always there. Sometimes there is no complicated explanation or logical reasoning. Sometimes, the guy you have a huge crush on just doesn’t feel the same way, and that’s all there is to it.

That’s OKAY. We have such a hard time understanding and accepting this, but I promise it is not the end of the world if Chad from science doesn’t like us back. We have all had guys that have had a thing for us and we didn’t feel the same way about them. So why does it have to be such a big deal if a guy isn’t showing interest in us?

Ladies, when he doesn’t text back or never wants to see you or be with you, take a hint. It’s not because he is so busy he has not had one hour of free time in the past month and it’s not because he has broken his phone every weekend. He simply isn’t interested.

It is time to move on and find someone who IS interested. These are the relationships that are much more fun. It is much more fun being with someone who wants to be with you and wants to talk to you every second of the day. There is nothing fun about constantly overthinking and wondering if he likes you back. Stop contemplating if you should text him “hi” or “hey” and if you should wait two days or three. It’s not worth your time.

If he doesn’t make it obvious that he’s interested, just assume he is not. To quote the movie this article is named after, “So trust me when I say if a guy is treating you like he doesn't give a sh*t, he genuinely doesn't give a sh*t”.

And another thing, if a guy end things with you out of nowhere for no real reason, that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with you. It just means you two weren’t clicking all that well from his end of things. And that’s OKAY. You shouldn’t want to be with someone who isn’t feeling it as much as you are anyways. Don’t make things complicated or messy. If he isn’t into it, it’s over. Don’t try and fight it, don’t text him at 2 am when you get home from a party, don’t favorite all his tweets and try to get his attention. Move on.

Not everyone you meet is going to be “the one”. If he isn’t into you, he’s just getting you one step closer to finding that person. Don’t get me wrong, I understand dealing with rejection can be hard. You want to be mad and upset and think about all the things that are wrong about you that would make them uninterested. But maybe there’s actually just something wrong with him. I mean, he is the one missing out on all of the great things about you.

Not everyone in life is going to like you, just like you’re not going to like everyone you meet. Don’t beat yourself up over it too much. It is something we are all faced with at one point or another, and it is something we all have to learn to deal with.

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.
