#11439 Three finals, four projects, and a presentation this week... And I'm just over here like "Damn I miss my ex"

Can't I just graduate already?!?

#11440 I hate when people say that they're attracted to intelligence, personality, or sense of humor, etc. Uhm you're not gonna hook up with someone ugly with great personality. Appearance is what everyone is attracted to, not who you are. You'll know within the first , minute if you want to hook up, all that other stuff is just bull. Personality is for dating/friends.

Walk through the door, get on the floor, everybody walk the dinosaur.

#11438 farewell Purdue May the force be with you, Live long and prosper my fellow Boilermakers you make the world go round, Be excellent to each other.. and party on

#11437 Interesting thing happened today (May 4th). As i was leaving Boiler Crossing, a guy, who was sitting at a bench on the phone, just looked at me. Then in a split second, he made a double take at me. I, poised with elegance, gave him the most unintentionally creeped out face and scurred away. It took me a moment to realize what happened and I got embarrassed, because I thought he was mortified at the food I bought to smash on (no lie). I'm no eentirely sure what happened, but I wonder if I'm the only one who thinks this way. Good luck on finals!

#11436 I've never thought of myself as anything but heterosexual but lately Ive been having borderline bisexual thoughts. I came to Purdue three years ago dating a girl who I truly loved. Things didn't work out and we ended up breaking up. My roommate at the time was a great deal of support to me and I can't thank him enough. We ended up living together for another two years and we've both been through many ups and downs but the one constant in my life has been him. He's the single best friend I've ever had and the only person I've ever been able to truly open up to and be myself around. He's now moving out and going his separate way after graduation. I've only ever identified myself as a heterosexual man but with him I have a very close emotional and intellectual relationship. I've never experienced something like this before. Its definitely hard to explain but I'm not sure if its just a very close feeling to a friend or if I am having intimate feelings for him. I want to talk to him about it before we both part our separate ways,but I am scared it will end our friendship. At the same time I've never cared for or been so connected to someone like this before. I don't know what to do.

#11435 I think I finally get why I've never had a relationship in college before. Of course there are the little things like not knowing what to say or being nervous and blah blah blah, but i've been through that before and if I felt like dealing with that I would...it happened while I was talking to my friend, and I'm not exactly how the topic came up. He was telling me about him and his partner and various things they sacrificed to be with each other. Most notably I remember him saying his relationship was even a factor in him coming to Purdue. He then told me "relationships are about compromise." That really hit me. I realize at this point I would never want to compromise to be in a relationship. There are goals I want to reach and honestly I wouldn't want to risk not being able to reach those goals because I had to spend time on someone else or just trying to chase someone. That may sound selfish as fuck, but that's honestly how I feel.

#11434 The fuss about who wants to have sex with whom seems like the most futile conversation.
If you and your partner are happy, nothing else matters.
Fuck the haters.

#11433 There's been a lot of religion vs people talk recently. I have some relevant opinions and want to hear everyone's opinion on them. To me, and those around me, a religion is a system of believers who are led by a hierarchy surrounding certain traditions and ancient words. Not to be confused with spirituality (of any form), which would be a belief in, well, anything. I was raised in a religion; for 19 years I sang words hundreds of years old, and made life altering decisions based on words that are multiple thousands of years old. I no longer associate with any of those people because they are hateful, nontolerant, and literally kicked me out when I shared my doubts. I then began living a double life. I am a "religious" when I'm home, but devoutly anti-religion on campus. If not for this, I would not have a home to go home to. This is the reason religion is a plague, IMO. Spirituality is a beautiful thing, resulting in well-raised children, solid morals, and a strong ethic. I love your ideas, I hate your churches.
