The Guy I Met On Tinder

Never did I think that I would meet a guy like this on Tinder.

The Guy I Met On Tinder
Stacey Navarro

About a year ago I experienced my heart being broken for the first time ever. It was something I've never experienced before and it hit me hard. I did not know how to handle it, and I'll be honest I did not handle it very well. That is all in the past now.

Last year it seemed like Tinder was such a big deal. Almost everyone had one. Even some people who were in relationships seemed to be on Tinder. I always thought I would never download the app and use it. However, about a month after the breakup there I was downloading the app.

Wow, the people you meet and talk to on Tinder.. I don't think I have words for it. Some of those people are just, well, they are unique characters. As a girl on Tinder I was getting tones of "matches". I had my fair share of pick up lines, inappropriate messages, and sweet messages. I had the app for about two months and went on a fair amount of dates. Never did I think I would actually meet someone on there.

Then there was this guy. His name was Jason. He popped up and I saw we had a mutual friend and that he was currently attending the college that I originally started at. I swiped right. Soon after we became a match. We started talking very casually about how we knew the same person and about the college we had in common. Around Christmas we met and hangout. We told our parents that we actually met through school. He is roommates with a friend from high school, so our story was believable. Not many people actually know the truth about us.

Since then, we have pretty much talked daily. We had the longest snap chat streak either of us has ever had. We talk about such normal and innocent topics. We go out and do things such as getting food, going to movies, and other just fun things.

Here I am saying this, he has turned out to be one of my best friends. I can tell him anything without judgment. Wait, actually he does judge, but it's all jokes. We have inside jokes between us, such like how I'm always late for work. My parents love him, and I know that I can trust him with anything.

Who would of ever thought that I would of met this awesome guy on Tinder? Not me thats for sure! It's still hard to believe that Tinder brought this guy into my life. This guy who has turned out to be one of my best friends. This guy, Jason really has been such a blessing to my life.

So here is the truth behind our friendship. We are a guy and a girl who are best friends. We did not meet in college; we met on Tinder.

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.
