dolphin08 Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I'm 21 years old and a senior in college. My first kiss was this past summer. My question for you is at the bottom of this post, but first, here's my story: --- Up until now, I've always felt "behind" socially. In middle school, I had the maturity level of an elementary school child, and constantly annoyed other people with my immaturity. I was in my own little world in high school: I wore ridiculously nerdy clothing and acted like an idiot most of the time. My first 1.5 years of college were very similar to my final years of high school. My daily outfit was a far-too-large ThinkGeek.com shirt and khakis that were too short; this, combined with my unbrushed Jew-fro and annoying laugh, made me one of the geekiest specimens imaginable. By sophomore year, I started emerging from my cocoon. I realized that I wanted to look good, and my maturity level rapidly caught up to the social norm. In many ways, I am now more mature than my peers. I am now considered very good looking and funny, extremely extraverted, and am about to begin working towards my master's degree at a prestigious university. In other words, while I don't like sounding cocky, I really am a catch. --- You can understand why I didn't have any experience with girls until recently, given my social history. Now that girls find me very attractive and I know how to talk to them, I feel that the doors of romance and debauchery are now opening, and I'm excited by all the fun that I can potentially have with the opposite sex. I've finally mastered the art of flirting, and I want to flirt with the whole world! I'm also excited to attempt random make-outs with girls, now that I have the confidence to do so. However (and this next paragraph is the purpose of the post), I'm worried that time is running out. I have one semester left until I graduate college, and while I'll be staying an extra year for my master's degree, I'll be extremely busy. I feel as if I've finally arrived at the buffet, but the food is cold and I can't enjoy it! It's not as if I can cram 4 years of it into one semester: I'm a busy guy! What are your perspectives on this? Are my opportunities for debauchery quickly running out?
Lucasarts Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh stop worrying so much, do you actually think the world of love, lust, flirting, and sex ends after college? The only difference is that, now you arent surrounded by as many gorgeous, dedicated, school girls, but now you have to start looking in all sorts of different places. You have different avenues to hit up (bars, restaurants, clubs, etc) as well as generic places that may not appear to be a site of where girls would go and get picked up but honestly, if you're confident and laid back (which it seems you are starting to become, if not already there) then any place can be a good one (where you work, the coffee shop, the corner store deli, etc) pretty much places where there is either food, drink, or both tend to be good places (because all human beings, no matter how attractive, must eat and drink to stay nourished). Yes the only difference after college is that its a lil harder/different than what you're used to, but the debauchery never ends. Also if you really feel that the schools are where you want to hit up girls, i would just start hanging around the popular campus area hotspots (since you will be a more sophisticated, good looking, grad, im sure there will be plenty of underclass girls who will come flocking/keeling over for you) dont sweat it. you did enough of that during your high school and half your college years. Now's the time to catch up and reap the rewards.
HeavenScent Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Take your time... enjoy the new surroundings.
Author dolphin08 Posted January 12, 2008 Author Posted January 12, 2008 Well, as I get older, doesn't it became a little weird to hit on college girls? In two years, when I'm 23, I wouldn't want to be hitting on the 18 year olds. The fact that they would flock to me makes it worse: I want to be flocked too because I'm a cool guy, and not because I happen to be older.
bozwa Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 So does your interest in girls end at college age? Once you are done with college, you can't be interested in any other women except college girls? Now THAt is a little creepy. There is a WHOLE WORLD of women out there. And since you are so extroverted and such a great catch, you won't have any problems snatching one or two up.
