To The Guy Who Can't Make Up His Damn Mind

One thing I know is that it sure is nice having him as my friend and that I do not want to lose.

To The Guy Who Can't Make Up His Damn Mind

I've been told everyone has had a guy in their life who just CAN NOT make up his mind about being interested in you or not, am I right ladies? Well, this is new for me. Ive only had one "real" boyfriend in my life and that was in high school...and we all know how high school relationships are...they're a joke, or at least mine was.This is the first guy I have actually been attracted to since high school. I know, it's been a while! I am looking for anything serious but I don't think he gets that or even knows that. So how do I tell if he is attracted/interested in me as well? Let me give you an over view of how I see things.

I constantly ask myself, is he flirting with me? Or his he just being nice? This is the hardest thing for us girls to tell the difference between. He could just have a friendly flirtatious personality because I sure do. But its the little things he does that scream "no he is flirting with you 100%". BUT then I get ignored for 2 weeks at a time. What is that!?!? Did I do or say something that pissed him off? Oh well, maybe he isn't interested in me. Ok thats fine just tell me you aren't interested in me like that and well move on and be friends. But then the next weekend he'll be "all over me".

Everything feels so natural between us, I don't have to try to be someone I am not and the conversations come so easy. I can be 110% myself and not fear that he will think I'm a weirdo. I truly believe he likes the way I am; how clumsy I am, the way I help people around me, the way I can screw something up and laugh about it. I know he enjoys everything about me, he'd be a fool not to. Then theres those times where he makes me all nervous so then I have no idea how to act around him. Trust me he knows that and he eats it up. Again, he could be just be being friendly. Don't get me wrong I love the attention, but when someone shows they're interested one minute and then not the next, well that HAS to be the most confusing thing for us girls to understand. My best friend tells me "just forget about him he's not worth my time"...but when she lives 356 miles away from me well, she doesn't see the interaction, so she doesn't really get it.

But where do I go from here? Do I let him play his little game and pretend I do not notice? Do I continue to sit here wondering if he is attracted to me as well? Or should I grow up and just ask him? If I ask him there is always that fear of rejection, which sucks but maybe thats what is needed. I've never experienced something like this with a guy so I don't really know how to go about it or even what to expect. Everyone is telling me how to handle it and thats great but I don't want to listen to their advice. So....maybe I'll ask him, maybe I won't. Perhaps I continue being flirtatious with him and just forget about him ever possibly being interested in me. One thing I know is that it sure is nice having him as my friend and that I do not want to lose.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
