“One time I made out with a guy for a ride home.”
Desperate times call for desperate measures I suppose...
Was he at least cute?
“I told a girl I like her. I've liked her for five to seven months and never told her until a few nights ago. I don't know why I told her. I wasn't planning to because I'm 5 years older then her and she's only in 10th grade. Even if she liked me, I wouldn't want her to be with me until she got the full high school experience. We were texting a few nights ago and I was joking about something. She said that I deserve someone better than her and I made the convo serious by saying, "but what if I want to be with you?" And it just got really serious from there. We're still friends and I'm ok with that, but now I feel like shit and I'm not getting better.”
Dear hopeless lover, large age gaps can get really tricky. Five years at this point in both of your brain development is a huge difference. I also believe you are doing the right thing by not pressuring her in to being with you and let things ride out and see what happens in a couple of years when she graduates. It is honorable to stay friends with someone even if they just want to be friends for a while. You know what they say; good friendships turn in to the best relationships. Don’t let that make you feel like shit. You have a great friend by your side for the next couple years, and hey, great girls are always worth the wait.
“What is your advice for a student transferring to GSU from another school?”
Dear newbie, I want to first start off and say congratulations! You just made a huge decision to pick up your whole life and move, which I know can be hard. I just transferred to this school this year from another university. The best advice I can give you is to get involved and meet more friends. I moved in early because of my sorority and I immediately got involved, and I feel more at home now than ever. Meeting new friends means you will have people to go to when you have “freshman” like questions. Also, get your head in the game and keep it there. It is very easy to slip up and get behind because every darty and frat party seem so important and you feel like you need to go to them all. However, if you're not careful, you will step back for a moment in a couple weeks and realize you are so far behind you don’t know how you can catch up. Let your old college go as soon as you can because Georgia Southern is a whole other ball game that requires a new perception. We can finally call ourselves Eagles. Lets represent it well!
“I hooked up with a guy and he didn’t use a condom. What should I do?”
First, I would suggest Plan B. It is pretty expensive for a college student but it’s worth it! The sooner you take it the better, just to be safe. The smartest thing to do after that is to immediately go see your lady doctor. If you don’t have one down here, ask some friends and they will know of a good one. They will be able to take a couple tests, and tell you very soon if there is something not so good happening down there. I always suggest never having unprotected sex. College towns are ranked second highest places to get an STD. Watch out and think smart. Next time just kiss the guy a little bit and tell him you want to hang out later, when both of you are sober!
