<p>I'm still in high school but still would like to know what its going to be like,so id know what to expect (class for 2013).I'm guessing its easier to talk to people since they are more mature and I tend to be able to talk more freely with older guys..I heard people just have causal sex but I hope that's not true because I'm not into that.I've never had a bf either.</p>
<p>^^ Probably because everyone in college is 18+ which makes them legally adults. Minors get more attention for early pregnancies whereas college, no one really gives a damn.</p>
<p>I agree with ThisMortalSoil. Mostly hook-ups happen, honestly. Nothing further really happens lol. Sad, but kind of true … I mean, some relationships form here and there.</p>
<p>…And people do have casual sex. Frequently. You by no means have to, but that is true, lol. It’s more mature than high school, but it’s still similar. </p>
<p>I sense more of a difference between dating scenes/people in regards to dating in early college years and later college years. When people first get to college (freshman/sophomore year) it’s more like high school but with more casual hooking up. Then later on most people get more into serious relationships (though some people continue just hooking up). I also think a lot of people tend to hook up when they’re single, but then also be open to committed relationships if the right person comes along.</p>
<p>Are you serious? Pregnancy? When, at most secular and state schools, birth control and condoms are readily and cheaply (or, most of the time, freely) available? Dude, step your game up–only dumdums get preggers in college. If you’re gonna get laid, you’re probably not going to be stupid about it. Even drunken hookups (which I’ve experienced; they’re the BESTEST) don’t normally end up as something stupid because the girls who get drunk and hook-up are normally whorish enough to already have been on the poll since, like, their sophomore year of high school.</p>
<p>^^Wow! Double standard much…Girls can hookup if they want just like guys. As long as their smart, safe, and they don’t run around telling the whole world. It’s college; we’re all allowed to release tension and experiment if we want without being judged and labeled “sluts”…Geeessh apparently college kids aren’t more mature than HS’ers if ur still judging people on what they choose to do in bed…or not do. They are NOT hurting u!
PS: And it’s “pole” not “poll” :|</p>
<p>It really, really depends. I happen to have a lot of friends who are dating at a school that’s supposed to be a “hook up” school. A lot of people are down to hook up, but yeah, if they meet someone, are not necessarily against committing. </p>
<p>I would say that it isn’t that hard to find a boyfriend but once you put yourself as someone who hooks up frequently and doesn’t really date, it becomes more difficult because people don’t expect you to want anything more.</p>
<p>Its the circles you run in… Assuming your at a place of more then 150 people and is fairly diverse, not everyone just wants ‘sex, nothing more nothing less’<br>
Being a guy I can testify to that sure, many,many, guys won’t refuse sex if its right in front on them from a willing partner, but that is not all which one necessarily desires… But behind that is a whole different discussion. I know quite a few guys and girls who want just relationships and aren’t really interested in going one hook up to the next.</p>
<p>To make a note on what Wizkhalifa said, minus the misogyny – condoms are NOT bombproof, especially if you use them improperly. Make sure you know how to use them right and preferably with a second form of birth control (spermicide, birth control pills, whatever). Unwanted pregnancies do happen in college and it’s best to be cautious. </p>
<p>Not trying to derail the thread but it’s important to mention, I think.</p>
<p>Tyler’s right- it really depends on the circles you run around in. Only a very few of my friends are into “hook-ups”. Some of us are in long-term relationships and the majority of the rest are looking for a relationship and don’t have casual sex. </p>
<p>I really don’t think hook-ups are as common as people make them out to be. Yes, at parties and such they are, but a lot of people just aren’t into that- girls and guys. It’s really not too hard to find people who aren’t into casual sex.</p>
<p>Good lord. I meant that people’s views towards dating and how they manage relationships is more mature and less high-school-like. Casual sex can be stupid if you don’t take the proper precautions (which most people do…I don’t know about you but I consider it trashy to not wear a condom no matter how drunk I am), but don’t be judgmental about it.</p>
<p>I really don’t understand how people can get so offended by or even care about the sexual behavior of others. Are we still in the age where we need to call each other sluts?</p>
<p>People will ALWAYS feel the need to put down other people because they don’t agree with their choices. It’s the sad world we live in. Hell, I’ve been called a slut because I have sex often- with the person I’ve been dating for a year! Just gotta smile and let it go :).</p>
