They won't come to you. That won't ever happen. Wrap your head around that.
You will always have to do the approaching.
And it won't automatically become easier in college, like someone flicks a magic switch.
However, many shy guys who didn't get on well socially in high school, find that they can make the effort to come out of their shell more in college. There's less jocks, they are surrounded by many people who have similar backgrounds, and they make the effort to become less shy and more sociable.
If you do that, then a happy side-effect is that you'll find it easier to get a girlfriend.
But it takes effort on your part. Anyone who tells you different, is selling you something.

Unfortunately no. People aren't looking to hook-up per se. It creates proximity but not opportunity. I know too many guys who didn't ALL of college. The bottom line is if you're a chickmagnet outside of school, you will be in school too... its sad but true. Work on building a network, something will open up that way. The more people you know, the more people you can be set-up with. College was great for dating a friend of a friend: NOT the cutie in the 2nd row, the cutie in the 2nd row's FRIEND... Sad but so true...
Yes it would be much easier. Girls are much free to take choices and decisions and are more likely to act like grown ups who are commonly interested in relationships :))
College won't be different if you stay the same. If your actions don't change then college will be just like high school
Yes, it probably will be easier. Just be friendly and get to know more girls.

They're much as they were in high school, but a little more approachable since they're away from their friends and family and maybe a little lonely.
But they also tend to be pretty venal, as they were in high school, so be prepared for the cold shoulder much of the time. I'd advise watching for someone smiling at you..then you can test her reaction if you start a conversation. Try to find someone with similar interests, such as in one of the many social clubs.Depends on what kind of college you go to. I find it was harder to get to know any girls at a commuter school where everyone lives far away from campus in different neighborhoods across a big city. Compared to a college where everyone lives on campus, interactions outside of class are much much easier.
It is easier because usually you get girls from various areas, and with different mindsets.
In HS most of the students are from one section of the same city, and thus the "overall culture" is similar.
So by default there's more kind of fish in the pond, so your "bait" (aka, the essence of what makes you "you") is more likely to work.
ONE of those fish is gonna like your bait and bite! :)beware of starting college relationships ! if they turn sour (as they often do) its messy.
college is for STUDYING !nope. mayeb some girls will b more mature but basically no
yes & no. college gives you a chance to be who you want to be while meeting completely new people. some girls will approach & others will still expect you to
i don't think so, because girls become more pickier there
i think it will be about the same as high school
Same as high school.
