Boyfriends in College

<p>Okay so I am not trying to sound like that is the main reason why I am excited about college, because that is so unethical and untrue =D...I was just wondering what you guys think about having a relationship in college or pursuing a relationship from HS into ur college stage</p>

<p>I’m all for finding a good boyfriend in college.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, high school couples that split and go off to separate colleges, have little chances of making it.</p>

<p>I do NOT suggest a long distance relationship to anyone because they suck. There’s so much unfair unhappiness involved and you really need to have an open mind and heart to maintain it. However, only you will know if someone you love is worth the inconvenience. I’ve been with my boyfriend since sophomore year of high school and we know each other very deeply. I am now a junior in college. We have been on and off throughout our long distance relationship because of frustration with the distance mainly, but what helps is knowing that he is always honest with me and I am always honest with him. He no longer says “it’s okay” when things are not okay and I no longer apologize for being negative about the situation. Do not ignore ****ty feelings, at the same time, never be afraid of telling someone how much they mean to you regardless of the situation or what others might say. Part of the college experience is deciding who you are and how you feel. You can still do great things with someone who is so far. Enjoy whatever time you do have together and one day you might have it all. College is four years, love is forever. Love is never perfect and even though we can’t have someone with us 100% of the time, knowing that someone loves you deeply is comforting.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t try having a relationship with someone at a different college. I think it limits you, people change, and long-distance sucks. As for having a girlfriend at college, I’ll look at it the same way I look at it now. If I find somebody great to be with, then great. Otherwise, enjoy the single life.</p>

<p>^^ Unless your bf/gf goes to a college really close to yours.
I know a few BC/BU, Ithaca/Cornell, UPenn/PennState couples that have been working really well for years (:</p>

<li>Long distance relationships don’t work.</li>
<li>There is nothing to be embarrassed about with that train of thought. It is perfectly normal. Pretty much every guy is pumped for college because of the immense amount of fresh girls. But it’s not just us. Girls feel the same way. They often will try to hide it but many/most girls get that “ZOMG BOYS” excitement going to college. Heck, I recently saw a study that talked about the roll of dating in college. In that article they mentioned a statistic on the number of girls who list “finding a husband” as one of their major goals in college. It is a very high number. Like around 60%. Your thoughts are normal. That said, you can’t go boy crazy and just lose control. That will lead to one thing. You being used. (Trust me I’m a dude) If you throw yourself at us we will hit it and leave. And you will likely end up heartbroken. Just be wise and if you want a real relationship you’re probably going to have to wait a little. Don’t give it up the first night.</li>

<p>Why did a junior in college make an account in May 2009, and is posting in HSL?</p>

<p>Relationships in college are fine.</p>

<p>However, pursuing one started initiated high school sounds rather dumb. You’ll more than likely meet so many other better guys. Why waste time with a relationship everyone knows simply won’t work and stick to just one.</p>

<p>Who’s a junior in college?</p>

<p>I believe he is referring to spishboo.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Penn and Penn State are multiple hours apart…</p>

<p>I know, but the relationships worked so what can i say?</p>

<p>Thanks for the replies!! It’s so funny hatersunite because my mom always joke that I am goin to meet my husband in college…and to leave my current HS boyfriend LOL…but I am not the type of girl to give it up like that…even through peer pressure. I am happy to say that I am a virgin with a boyfriend from 8th grade Jr High…and I am goin into my Senior Yr of HS…but we both know that we want to go to different colleges so we are prepared to u know…separate</p>

<p>who?? advanced Lawlz</p>

<p>How far away is Georgia or Florida from Delaware or Pennsylvania??</p>

<p>Been with my boyfriend since I was a freshman in high school. We’re both in different colleges, still going strong.</p>

<p>I feel bad for him. Or you. One of the two.</p>

<p>I honestly believe that if its meant to be…it will be…regardless of location. I just know for myself that i may not WANT to have a relationship hinder me from my college experience.</p>
