15 Reasons Why Being A Romantic is Problematic

Being a romantic is great – being hyperaware of chemistry building between two people, you have so many great movie options, and all of the OTPs. It also hurts. These are reasons why it hurts.

1. If you have one thing in common, you have lived the same life.

"Wait, you like that wildly famous and will go down in history movie, too? We are basically the same person."

2. You get weird.

^ Remembering that weird thing you said to your crush earlier in the day.

3. You get nervous.

"Ums" and "uhs" are the openings and closers of every conversation.

4. You are kind of an open book.


This is you trying to play it cool.

5. You get excited about the littlest things.

Nope. My bad. His hand just twitched.

6. Everything means something.

You look into the smallest things that they do and try to analyze every one of them.

7. You tend to get over dramatic.

I neeeeeeed you. You are Team No Chill.

8. The future.

Thinking about how beautiful your kids would look like isn't off limits.

9. You turn to the internet.

Google searching "does a guy flirting with other girls in front of me means he likes me?" or just "soul mates?" Google doesn't know.

10. Horoscopes.

11. You can't really handle rejection.

12. This is basically your worst fear.

13. You might believe that the universe is giving you signs.

14. Love at first sight.

*Sees attractive stranger* This is it. This is what I'm going to wake up next to every morning.

15. You only want them.

Every birthday candle, 11:11, shooting star, and prayer is you wishing that somehow you guys can be 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?
