#6478 I confess...I'm totally out of it when it comes to the dating world. I've wanted to date, & enter into a relationship w/ someone since I got to SLU 3 years ago. Even so, that's yet to happen.Truthfully, at this point, I feel like I'm at a standstill & don't know how to navigate my way through the dating scene. Heck, I don't even know where the dating scene is! In the past, I've tried the technique where you approach the guy first a couple times (which I don't like b/c I would rather be approached by the guy...ya know, the old school way :-) ) & ended up worse off than before. B/c, after approaching the guy & letting him know that I had been seeing him around & wanted to get to know him better, he came at me like I was some easy chick who wanted just wanted a piece of his Oscar Mayer wiener, which I'm not. Like, literally, we would be having a nice little conversation about everyday things, like programs we're involved in, classes, etc., & he wants to bring up penis & vagina! :-( Like, sir, you don't even know me! Since I'm trying to get back into opening myself to meeting someone again after saying eff it for 6 months, I've recently tried to practice subtly expressing interest so that the guy knows I'm interested during a random interaction w/ a cute guy in the caf, but I just ended up looking awkward b/c, while I was trying to look cute in front of him, I ended up accidentally burning myself as I used the waffle iron. I tried to play it off at first, but the sting was so bad that I lost my train of thought, & all I could say was, "Do you think I should put butter on this?" smh And I know that it shouldn't matter that he was white, but that's another thing: I don't know how to tell if a white guy, or any guy other than someone of my own race for that matter, is interested in me or not b/c, in my experience, they don't seem to be as upfront and straightforward about it. The truth of the matter is, I can't tell if they're into me or are just being friendly. Ugh! Why can't things be plain and simple?

#6459 Everyone I went to high school with is either pregnant, has a kid, married, divorced, etc. I think it's so ridiculous that at the age of 22-23, people get excited about becoming pregnant after only a few months of being with their partner. One girl said she'd never be able to have kids so she was finally blessed when she found out she was pregnant-no you just weren't using protection. Because you didn't think you had too. Being a mom so young cannot be fun you are still in school and should see the world. Instead you thought oh I'll never get pregnant and how can people be so ignorant

#6587 I suck at talking to girls mostly because I don't have the courage to talk to them. But id treat any girl like she's the only girl in the world. Anybody can give me some pointers on being more courageous? Haha

#6463 Am I the only one that seen the couple in the union on the far end near Fayard trying to swallow each other's tongues and putting their hands down each other's pants? Like seriously, get a room. Ruined my lunch....

#6467 I confess there is a sex offender loose around livingston parish and i just found out tonight. Now every lil thing scares me, from the dog going through the pet door, to my phone buzzing and even cars going down the street. ???? i dont think i will be getting much sleep tonight...

#6454 I confess I am a sophomore and when I was a freshman I was so lost I couldn't find the bathrooms. My biggest problem now are the events that happen on campus and I never no about them. I never see announcements or hear of them unless I accidentally walk past them traveling from one class to the next. Come on fellow students. Where is this secret organization of people knowing things that happen on campus but losers like me don't get the memo till its to late???

Cake - It's too bad there isn't a tab on Southeastern's website you could click on called "News and Events" to lead you to such information. But that would mean having to be proactive, god forbid.

#6452 I confess that I wish I would get sick and die. I know it's selfish and millions of sick people would give anything for my health, but I just don't want to exist anymore and suicide isn't an option.

#6451 I know it's selfish, but I'm tired of people unloading their drama on me. It's not that I don't like helping, but it feels like everyone expects me to care about their feelings but no one cares about mine. It makes me feel like no one has any use for me until it's convenient for them, and I feel like I'm unimportant.
Is it wrong to feel this way?

Omega- Awkward...
