Boys in college are typically more interested in having fun rather than settling down. While I'm the type of girl who is looking for a long-lasting love, every boy that I find seem to want more of a fling. But you know what, if you're like me and you feel like you're worried about finding a worthwhile boy, here is a list of things you can focus your energy on instead of boys.
1. Go on a bike ride.
Literally biking is SO FUN!
2. Get lunch with friends.
Call up some of your best friends and spend the afternoon together! Take cute pictures while you're all dressed up and the sun is shining so you can post them and he can eat his heart out, you're welcome.
3. Spend time with your sisters.
GiphyYour sisters are there to support and love you! Go spend some time with them!
4. Exercise.
Exercising doesn't just tone up your body, it also cleanses your mind and gives you a more positive mood change! Exercising is so good for you in so many ways!
5. Join a club.
Getting involved is a great way to maximize your time and an amazing opportunity to make new friends! I have gotten myself involved in Student Government, Greek Life, and so many more organizations and I have never looked back!
6. Write.
I've always found writing out how I'm feeling or what I am thinking about to be very therapeutic!
7. Read a book.
BOOKS ROCK!!! HUFFLEPUFF FOREVER!!!
8. Pet a dog.
A dog will love you just for being you! Dogs show you what true love really feels like by getting excited when they meet you and giving you little kisses when you're near them. Dogs are honestly sooooo much better than boys. #DogMom4Life
9. Start binge-watching a new show.
One time I got ghosted by this guy I really liked and to help ease the pain and get my mind off of him, I binge watched How I Met Your Mother and now it's my favorite show!
10. Eat chicken nuggets.
Chicken nuggets don't care if you aren't wearing makeup while you're with them and chicken nuggets will give you that warm feeling inside that a man won't.
11. Do some karaoke.
There's nothing like getting your emotions out like singing Carrie Underwood at the top of your lungs!
12. Go shopping.
Retail therapy always helps! ;)
13. Change your hair.
Getting a haircut or a color change makes you feel like a new person and can really boost your self esteem!
14. Get a job.
This probably sounds like the least fun thing to do on this list but actually I think it's a good way to pass the time. No phone, making new friends, and you're getting paid for it!
15. Watch a romcom.
Dirty Dancing and How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days have always been my go-to movies.
16. Treat yo self to a night out.
GiphyI always enjoy getting all dolled up to go to a fancy restaurant, so take yourself out on a nice date! It's a great way of showing appreciation and love for yourself rather than relying on someone else to do that for you.
