being single in college sucks IMO
 
everything says its great, but i hate being single :(

Yeah but having a boyfriend isn't the answer to all life's problems either..........It's good to have time to yourself while you can.

I broke up with my boyfriend before going to school.. just so that I would be single. I wanted to make sure that I did my own thing.

I spent sometime in a relationship for a while and some of the time not in one, both were good. I like being in a relationship, but I loved being able to go out whenever, meet new people, and stuff.

I had a boyfriend my entire freshman yea rand it sucked. I didn't meet nearly as many people because I was with him or on the phone with him 24/7.

My sophmore year I was single and it was soooooo fun. Just go out with your girls and get crazy. Make out with random guys. Makeout with everyone.

I agree with DGQueen17!

While it may seem everyone is happily paired off in coupledom while in college, the reverse is actually true. Take college as an opportunity to dabble in dating different types and indulging in new activities to meet people like going to the student gym, joining a campus club outside of Greek Life, etc. You never know who you will meet and the more you busy yourself, the happier and more productive you'll be-- Mr./Miss Right should compliment who you are, and not be the total source of your happiness! So enjoy the dating banquet that is college, but above all, have fun and enjoy being YOU!

Oh yeah... Be Safe and.... Go To Class!

i need a woman ;)

You need a woman, or do you need to just GET LAID?

Look at it this way, right now you can go off and enjoy being a hoebag without having to cover your tracks for your woman.

Enjoy being young and not having a care in the world.

Man, I was single almost all of college ---by choice--and I loved it. I went out every night and I had so many friends because I was always meeting new people.

Zidion 11-24-2004 03:53 PM

i could care less about getting laid

PhoenixAzul 11-24-2004 04:45 PM

On the flip side, I'm in a 3 year relationship and I'm in college. Never broke up even after I moved away for school. It has worked out so far (crosses fingers) and I've still met a lot of people. It's not so bad, really.

Coramoor 11-24-2004 05:38 PM

I had girlfriends my first three years of college.

I regret it looking back, but I'm more than making up for it now. I had fun....but if I could do it over again I definitly would not have a girlfriend. I missed out on so many opportunities and held myself back way too many times.

Don't get serious at least until you are like....thirty.

amen.

I agree that's its a good idea to take advantage of the freedom you have now.

However, I think if you meet someone you KNOW you would never want to lose, dont let them go just because everyone else says this is the time to be hooking up with every other guy ( or girl).

I met a guy that I couldnt imagine leaving him for anyone else, and at this point I know that theres no point in dating other people, just because I'd be looking for something I already have.

Seriously, there are lots of women in college looking for boyfriend. Find one you like and ask her out. :)

That doesn;t mean they will turn you down for a date lol .. .

Here is your assignment: Ask 15 girls out on dates and see how many say yes or no.

Come back in 2 weeks and give us the results.

There are plenty of girls like me who fairly the same way as you, who are looking for people to go out with. You'll find someone. or several.

I would date you... but I'm afraid BobbyThDon would have to kick your butt. And online fighting is just never fun. :(

But James is right .... that doesn't mean they won't go on a date with you. Even hos need a good guy once in a while. j/k

KillarneyRose 11-24-2004 11:57 PM

I had the best of both worlds; a boyfriend at a school 400 miles away. When I wanted to be "taken", I acted as such and when I wanted to date and have fun, I did :)

I have, however, gained scruples and a conscience since then! I'm really a very nice suburban soccer mom :(

Try meeting girls at church, a religious social group, a class, or your dorm.

Since you are religious, you are probably a member of a church or temple. I suggest that you talk to your priest/minister/rabbi and ask if there are any single women looking to meet someone or if there are social events for single people. My priest is always trying to be a matchmaker for the singles. Good luck!

maybe we should leave these two alone....heheh

Munchkin03 11-25-2004 12:42 PM

I had a really good setup too--I was single during freshman year, after having been in unhealthy relationships before then, and dated a lot. Partied three nights a week. Then, during sophomore year and junior, I was in a long-distance relationship...which allowed me to go out w/ my friends without having someone as a distraction. I spent my junior year abroad, which a lot of my friends in relationships actually opted out of doing in order to stay close to their SO.

So, being single can be a good thing for you. I love being in a relationship, but I've learned that it's being with a specific person that's nice about being attached, not simply "having someone."
