I Am Not A "Netflix And Chill" Kind Of Girl

And that's totally okay.

I Am Not A "Netflix And Chill" Kind Of Girl
College Humor

I am not the kind of girl who just wants casual hookups, and that's okay!

As a college woman, I have often found myself feeling bad for lack of having experienced a one-night stand. I felt that I was missing out on the college experience, until I realized that having fun with my friends during a night out instead of leaving them to hookup is so much better.

Now of course, if you are someone who likes to "Netflix and chill", or hookup then that's cool too! Own that shit and don't let anyone make you feel bad for it.

But this is for the girls (and guys) who feel like they are missing out on something because they don't want to have casual sex.

I always believe in doing whatever you want, whenever you want. You only have a certain amount of time in life to enjoy freedom so you might as well use it. But for those who want to use that freedom a little differently then that is okay too.

I personally don't find myself wanting to "Netflix and chill" because I am a planner. I don't want to waste my time with someone that I will never talk to again.

I would much rather wait the two or three months it may take to find someone new instead of rushing the process and being with the first guy I see.

As I always like to say, I have prerequisites that a guy must meet for me to even be interested and that sure as hell isn't going to change so I can "get some."

I've started to realize the art of being independent and totally self-sufficient. I don't want to lose my progress for one night with a guy who will probably kick my out at 2 a.m. and never talk to me again.

Some girls may like that, and there is absolutely no judgement because sometimes I envy you, but I have yet to find that to sound appealing.

I want someone who is going to ask me to get coffee or Panera, not someone who calls me at midnight to come "watch Netflix."

I want someone who would be there for me when I am feeling sad, not someone who will be the one making me sad.

I have expectations of what I want out of life and I have wasted too much time on f*ckboys in the past to even think about wasting my college years on casual sex.

I've been there, done that and now it is time to do stuff for me, instead of giving my body to random guys who don't respect it.

So to the girls who are in college and feel like they are missing out because they don't want to "Netflix and chill," and to the girls who do, just know that you are awesome and you can do whatever the hell you want. Just make sure it makes you happy and then own the decisions you make.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
