10 Thoughts Every Single Girl Has Had While Trying To Date In Quarantine

Lexi Schroeder

Quarantine is getting the best of us... especially if you're single like me. I don't have anyone I can really invite over, watch movies, and order take out with, so it does get lonely. My single days in quarantine consist of swiping on Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge because I truly have nothing else to do when I'm done with my homework.

Who knows, maybe I will meet my future boyfriend in quarantine, but by the looks of it... I'm not too sure. Here are 10 thoughts I've had while trying to date in quarantine, that I'm sure a lot of girls (and guys) can relate to:

1. "Tinder is getting REAL dry."

It seems more and more people join everyday... but ones that I'm not interested in.

2. "My standards are dropping."

Sadly...

3. "Wow, I ran out of people to swipe on in my area again."

Happens to the best of us.

4. "I'm going to be alone forever."

At this rate.

5. "This guy that snapped me does NOT look like his pictures on Bumble."

This has happened mutiple times while hunkered in my house.

6. "I bet when quarentine is over, I'm going to want to be single again."

My mom has been saying this to me every day.

7. "I think I may have to resort to Facebook dating."

All the other dating apps don't seem to be working.

"Do I dare hit up that guy I used to talk to from my hometown?"

Deep down I know I shouldn't.

"I guess I'm resorting to Australia with Tinder Passport."

Might as well find a cute man with an accent to keep me company via FaceTime.

"I think I'm going to give in and purchase Tinder Gold."

And Bumble Boost and Hinge Preferred.

Whether you grew up going to the lake, have only recently started going, or have only been once or twice, you know it takes a certain kind of person to be a lake person. To the long-time lake people, the lake holds a special place in your heart, no matter how dirty the water may look.

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.

There's no other place you'd rather be in the summer.

A bad day at the lake is still better than a good day not at the lake.

You know the best beaches and coves to go to.

You have no patience for the guy who can't back his trailer into the water right.

Doing the friendly wave to every boat you pass.

The cooler is always packed, mostly with beer.

Giving the idiot who goes 30 in a "No Wake Zone" a piece of your mind.

You have no problem with peeing in the water.

You know the frustration of getting your anchor stuck.

Watching in awe at the bigger, better boats that pass by.

Knowing any swimsuit that you own with white in it is best left for the pool or the ocean.

The momentary fear for your life as you get launched from the tube.

You're able to go to the restaurants by the water wearing minimal clothing.

Having unexpected problems with your boat.

Having a name for your boat unique to you and your life.

There's no better place you'd rather be in the summer.
