Dating life at UCLA?

<p>What is the dating life like for freshman at UCLA? Is it mainly hookups, dating, FWB, etc. If it makes a difference Im a caucasion male from SoCAL :)</p>

<p>Note: I have absolutely no racial preference to who I date. I just posted my race to give more info. Im actually also part Mexican but my skin is light so most people don’t notice that part at first.</p>

<p>based on my personal experience, it seems like most people are down to hook up but arent into the whole relationship/dating thing. i hate it</p>

<p>haha of course, dating/relationship thing will prob get more serious in 3rd year</p>

<p>This is probably not the best place to ask that question. You don’t exactly get the right sample population. Hahahahaha. xD</p>

<p>(I think I see more hook ups than actually dating, but hey, what do I know?)</p>

<p>It honestly depends what scene you’re at since UCLA is so huge. (party girls, studious, combination of both, etc) From my experience though, I agree with the above posters.
Most freshman and sophomores try to stay single and people are generally settled down in junior year. There are a lot of random hook ups at parties. It sounds pessimistic, but you’ll find that a lot of people bring relationships to college…only to break up during freshman year.</p>

<p>I’m pretty studious and REALLY want to go to a top 15 law school so I know GPA is SUPER important. However, Im also really into exercise and athletic stuff, so I wouldn’t consider myself a nerd. I’ll do the usual college stuff, but maybe not as much as other people. I tend to do better with asian girls because they seem to appreciate my calm personality (I actually like to get to know girls before I “nook nook” them haha). White girls don’t seem to be attracted to this because they seem to like more aggressive guys because it gives them power to manipulate them with sexual favors (sorry if that was too graphic). Im completely open to any race but my HS was almost all white/asian so I don’t really have much else in terms of experience.</p>

<p>gahahahahaha, i find yellow fever surprisingly rare at ucla</p>

I love how you use ethnicity to describe women, as if that’s what determines personality.</p>

<p>@framlove: I’m sorry if I offended anyone. Im just saying that was my dating experience in HS. Im sure UCLA (and every college for that matter) will be way different. Ethnicity doesn’t determine personality. Everyone is different. Race isn’t a factor I use while dating :)</p>

Well it’s ok, I wasn’t really too offended. But at the same time, I’m really tired of seeing all these “dating” threads and reading all the idiot posts about “UCLA girls” and what to expect. It’s total bull.
I think you should maybe lessen your assumptions. You seem like a nice enough kid, just go with that and try to be sociable and outgoing. I’d say that your first year of college is the year where you “experiment” with being on your own. Meaning some hook-ups and a few dates, but nothing serious. And that’s not necessarily a bad thing.</p>
