They've never done their own laundry.

So you met a boy and you like him. Congrats.

Many girls, at some point in a relationship, quickly discover they are not the only woman in their man's life. Afterall, the best lions have a lionness.

Unfortunately for you ladies, some of these guys never outgrow this bond and depend on their moms way too much – even into their college years. In the most severe cases, they will lean on their mother well into their 20s.

Here are 10 signs you're dating a momma's boy:

1. He doesn't do laundry. And he doesn't know how.

And why would he? His mom has been doing it for him his whole life. And still does. That's why he loves her so much.

2. He is not much of a cook.

Again, his mom cooked 90 percent of his meals through high school, still cooks for him when he's home from college, and even sends him back with plenty of food to get by.

3. He calls and texts Mom every day.

You: “Why are you laughing so hard? Who are you texting, your boys?"

Him: “It's my mom!"

4. He is a ham.

He loves to be the center of attention. Why wouldn't he be? Mom has been telling him he's special and the best thing on earth for at least two decades.

5. He is a gentleman.

It's not all bad. You're dating a guy who knows how to treat women because the most important person his whole life is, in fact, a woman.

6. He loves to cuddle.

Classic momma's boy move.

7. He and his Mom have inside jokes.

Maybe one day you will too. But they've been working on material for years.

8. They are not very handy.

Again, they're just used to having everyone do everything for them – not just mom. But Mom started this trend for sure.

9. He loves to shop and he is a great gift-giver.

His mom used to take him on all her shopping trips, so naturally, he likes to shop. And he's weirdly good at it.

10. He is sensitive. And you'll fall for him because of it.

You are not his first serious girlfriend. And he's good at the emotion game. Maybe a little too good. Momma's boys are notorious for being “relationship people."

Good luck with that.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
