Search Results: college guys and dating

MY mother, aunt, several female friends and my 1st year of college (worthless women's studies classes) influenced my upbringing. That's all I ever knew.

The very first thing my mother ever told me about guys (I was 4 at the time) was that I could tame him. She used to make me repeat the phrases ''I got the power to tame a boy''. Then immigrants (esp the native Spanish speakers that knew little or no English after 10+ years) were hated in the household.

So what changed me? Not going into details but I had an accident 3 years ago and if it wasn't for a Mexican guy, I'm not sure if I would be here typing today. He had a strong accent (spoke in broken English with some Spanish) but I did managed to understand a couple Spanish words too. I have him as a friend on fb till this day.

So let's say we're dating and you knew I was like that in the past (not anymore though), would you date me?

So far my dating life has been nonexistent and I feel somewhat behind and left out from what all of my peers around me are experiencing. A few guys have shown interest in me, but I was not interested in them. The guys that I did have interest in, did not have interest in me. I even shot my shot twice. The first time I got rejected, the second time the guy just played with my feelings and pretended to be interested in me, so I ended things. I wouldn't say I'm particularly off-putting. Maybe I am a little too confident, but I think I am in fairly good shape and am a good person. I exercise regularly, have plenty of friends that I think can attest to my positive attributes, like being funny and open minded, and have goals in life. I honestly don't think I am below any of the other girls who do have boyfriends and constant male attention, but obviously I don't consider myself to be above them. Will it be easier to get into a relationship once I leave high school? I am graduating this year. I know that I could have just dated one of the guys that showed prior interest in me, but I would never want to get into a relationship with someone who I have no attraction to "just because" and then leading them on (like what happened to me), I would rather have it be where we are mutually romantically interested in one another. I just don't get what these girls are doing to get swarmed by guys...

My boyfriend and I have been dating for almost 2 years now, and its definitely been a roller coaster. However, we had met in college and I just recently graduated so he's basically there by himself most of the time because his other close friends have graduated as well. Anyway though, he has been having a tough time with school and the friends I have (only male ones). I have discussed his issue about my male friends with him and he keeps making excuses on why I should not hang out with them or even see them in general. I was going to meet up with a good guy friend from grade school and he even told his mom about it, and both messaged me saying it was "not a good idea, it's not safe." He a very dramatic person in general.

Anyway though, he has been having issues with namely one male friend which we will call Bill. They both haven't met each other yet and Bill does talk negatively about my boyfriend sometimes out of either jealously/spite, or in a joking way. My boyfriend gets upset when I don't stand up for him during those situations but Bill is known to be a jokester, and I don't even realize what was said until afterwards most of the time. Today, Bill had to help me move things out of my mom's house and my boyfriend got upset that he was there even though he was not available to help me to begin with since he is in school. I have told my boyfriend to come on and help, but he never gave me a definite date. He has been upset the whole day after Bill came. He also said that he was stressing out over school which is going to be over in less than a month, and I tried to reassure him that it'll be alright but he still was sad claiming he was tired. I am honestly not sure on what to do or if I'm being a good girlfriend because I have tried to help him in situations like these in the past including that whole male friend thing as well with Bill coming. What do you think i should do?
