<p>I just have a quick question. Is college like highschool where all the upperclassmen try to get on the freshmen?</p>
<p>guys love fresh meat.</p>
<p>lol................</p>
<p>especially when they're drunk.....trust me :)</p>
<p>are you female or male? cuz girls aren't as desperate.</p>
<p>lol - my highschool certainly wasn't like that... upperclassmen who went out with freshmen were made fun of for 'cradle robbing'. </p>
<p>at my college, upper classmen are generally in thier smaller upper division courses and aren't surrounded by the incoming freshmen who are stuck in large lower division courses. So, although they do date occasionlly.. it doesn't happen very often. (Although one of my friends recently started dating a freshman girl - he'll be a super senior next year... we all tease him)</p>
<p>It can get complicated... I say try not to date anyone who you share a class with or that you meet doing something you really enjoy. You'd think those would be the first places you'd wanna meet people, but what if it doesn't work out? Do you really wanna have to see them everyday in class or have to avoid someone you really enjoy to avoid them?</p>
<p>that happens if you freshmen guys are just looking for sex, which is very different from looking for a relationship...anyway, i think they would be "craddle robbers".</p>
<p>I love the sweet irony of the College-trademarked "The Curve."</p>
<p>Basically, freshmen girls get all of the attention while most freshmen guys get nothing. The beauty of the curve is that after every year guys get more and more attention while girls get less and less. There are a few exceptions but there is always a few exceptions to a theory, but this is still effective. It happened to me at on party. I was dancing with this girl and started talking. It was all right until we found out that I was a first year and she was a fourth year. It just felt a little awkward after that. I think I saw her again like a month or two later, but there was nothing.</p>

<p>Would this be because the senior girls get more mature and start settling in relationships or just because the freshman and sophomores are more willing to get crazy?</p>
<p>I'm honestly not too sure-- it's a combination of both. </p>
<p>Part of it is that freshmen girls are foolish a lot of the time and will get really drunk in a fraternity where they may not know all the guys, and may be more inclined to hook up with one for the night. And similarly, senior girls may also get just as drunk, but maybe not, and even still, by that point, they're so settled into their social circle that I've seen less hookups happen (but they still exist-- maybe not as much).</p>
<p>^^well, if you think about it, the freshmen girls got with the senior guys 2-3 years ago, and now that the freshmen girls are seniors, they are with guys who graduated 2-3 years ago...probaby guys either in grad school, working full-time, or bumming off their girl's student loans!!! LOL Depending on which school they went to, and their major of course.</p>
<p>that doesn't mean they're still with guys they hooked up w/ as freshmen. there's definitely the senior girl w/ guy one or two years out of college, but i've really seen that when senior girls are in relationships, they're with senior guys.</p>
<p>Oh I forgot, my other reason was that maybe senior girls would be seen as 'used up' after three years of hook-ups :p I mean, I have a sophomore sorority friend that's been with at least 10 guys since she started and there has to be girls that've done way more. Would you hit it?</p>
<p>HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA to above. good one ucbhi =]</p>
<p>I'll admit it right here. As a sophomore to be in the fall, I am looking forward to the freshmen ladies. Why? Because a lot of them won't be corrupted by college life (especially drinking) yet.</p>
<p>In high school, I knew a lot of really good girls who didn't drink, weren't into premaritial sex, etc and most of them fell apart in college. They all went way wild and some of them did dumb things to themselves--half of them aren't even cute anymore. It's really sad.</p>
<p>Also, just because of my history--all the girls I've ever liked have been younger than me. Go figure.</p>
<p>About seniors hitting on freshmen--this is so true. My senior year of HS, there was this one girl--really nice, outgoing, friendly, cute, smart, compassionate--and there were five of us all trying to claim her as "my freshman". Three of those guys actually already had girlfriends. One of those guys hit on every freshman in sight from sophomore to senior year (and dated close to 30 of them, most of the relationships ending after 3 days).</p>
