It's true: Dating in college can be a complicated process. Maybe because you're long distance with your boyfriend from high school, maybe because you aren't into the hookup culture, or for a number of other reasons.

Maybe college towns don't have a lot of great relationships, but you know what they do have? A lot of Mexican restaurants. You can go to these restaurants on your first date, and your last date, and on girls' nights when you're making fun of your exes. And there's one thing that I guarantee will be at any Mexican restaurant: Salsa. And as long as you have salsa you don't really need boys anyway, right?

1. Salsa won't cancel on you

As long as you have access to a grocery store or a Moe's around, you can always have plans with salsa. Whether the occasion is a pregame, a friend's night, or a night in alone, salsa will always be there, and they'll never give excuses.

2. Salsa won't lie to you

You'll never have to ask salsa where they've been or who they've been hanging out with.

3. You'll always be attracted to salsa

Sometimes it's a little chunky, sometimes it's mild, but your feels for it will always remain the same.

4. Salsa will always be willing to spice up your relationship

Can't say the same for boys.

5. Salsa doesn't have overbearing parents

Salsa won't pressure you to meet the in-laws, even if you've been with salsa for years.

6. Your friends will never tell you they don't like salsa

But they might tell you they don't like your boyfriend.

7. Salsa loves you as you are

Salsa will accept you in your cutest outfit at the trendy Mexican restaurant downtown, and it will accept you in your pajamas, eating out of the jar with a spoon at 2 a.m.

8. Salsa won't send you 11 texts in a row

Actually, it won't text you at all. Salsa isn't clingy.
