The Different Types Of Guys You Meet On Tinder
Befunky

Let's get one thing out of the way, if your main photo is a picture of your vehicle, no one is swiping right for you.

There are many, many different types of guys out in the real world, but those types can be narrowed down when it comes to the types of guys on dating apps.

The first type, the stereotypical frat star. You know who I'm talking about. His bio says something like "University Name/State where he's from/Greek Letters" and then a couple of spaces down it says his height, just as long as he's over six feet tall. His pictures include him standing in front of an american flag pinned up on a wall with a bud light in his hand, a picture of him and his frat brothers holding up a "1" with their fingers while holding a budlight, and a picture of him from his formal where he's dressed nicely. This boy may be cute buuuut 10/10 times he's not worth your time.

The next type, the fisherman. His only pictures are him holding up a goddamn fish. You're outdoorsy and your bio also let's us know that, reading something like, "fishing is my number one passion. Message me if you like the outdoors and are down for a good time." This guy likes fishing more than he'll ever like you and probably only listens to country music in his pickup truck.

Another type is the military guy. First off, thank you for serving our country. We can tell that you're in the military because all of your pictures are you in uniform and your info says something along the lines of, "Murica, guns, beer, and tattoos." This boy may be a fuck boy, buuuuuuuut he's probably going to be polite about it, or just be super blunt in his first message and then you'll go ghost and he'll get offended.

Another one is the boy holding a blunt in his main photo. I see you, your future employer sees you. Your bio probably even reads something like, "4/20 friendly" with a maple leaf emoji, as if we couldn't already tell that from your pictures. Thank you for your bio, otherwise we would be lost. This guy probably messages you inappropriate pick up lines that he thinks are funny, but are actually offensive and degrading.

Then there's the artsy guy. His pictures can vary from an artsy out door pic, to a picture that's slightly blurry of him with a PBR can, to a picture of him sitting outside playing the guitar, to a picture of him taking a picture of something with a real life camera (this is my personal fav). His info probably includes some pop culture references or something about dad jokes. He probably won't offend you, so that's a plus.

The next is the guy who loves his abs. How do I know he loves his abs? BECAUSE HIS ABS ARE IN EVERY. SINGLE. PICTURE. The first picture is probably a mirror pic (classic) and the next could range from a beach pic, to more mirror pics, to him just with his shirt off in any environment. His bio probably reads something like "gym, EDM, repeat." If you wanna swipe right, don't. His abs aren't worth it.

Last but not least, is the boy with a dog. He has a dog, so you probably swipe right, and that's reasonable. His other pictures probably aren't as cute as the first due to the absence of the doggo, but maybe, juuust maybe you'll get to meet his dog if you suffer through his boring conversation for a couple of days.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
