Why is it that...


Question Posted Tuesday November 1 2005, 9:14 pm

Why is it that all the questions on here are about relationship problems? Don't people realize theres more to life then the opposite sex?

Anyway, I actually do have a question. ha.

17/F ... college next year!

I was wondering what everyones take on college is? I think I'm going to look for an all girls college. Are there many around? Does anyone know of any good ones? If there are boys around I will get distracted and won't do my work. I can wait for a boy, I dont need one when I'm in college. I want to get great grades and do all my work constantly.

Also, do you think this will effect how I view my college experience? Part of the actual experience is dorm life, parties, etc. Do you think I will regret choosing an all girls school when I'm rolling in money because I stuck to my studies?

Oh wow, an all girl college would be exciting, because in the long run you`ll be raking in the money when your married to a guys you like alot, and have your family going on your feet, but there are always all boys colleges right next to the all girl colleges that have parties together and get togethers so there is always a good chance of meeting someone even tho you dont want to go with whats in your heart and whats going to be better in the long run

I don't live in the U.S. so I can't really help you with what colleges would be good for you...

But, as a girl who just spent two years of college with almost no interraction with boys, let me tell you this:

We are sexual beings. Being attracted to people, being loved by someone, flirting, having your heart beat faster because of that special someone... That's a need, just as eating is.

However, it doesn't necessarly mean it will distract you from your studies. But you shouldn't deny this part of you just for the money or the success (unless these are your values, in which case I should stop typing right now.)

Remember, you have four years in college. Can you go four years without what I listed above?

It's quite possible that you can. Then, all girls is probably a good solution.

By the way, do you go to school with boys? Do they distract you right now? If they don't, why should it be different in college?

An experience is what you make of it. You can still have a good college experience without it being the typical promiscuous, drunken stupor of many other college kids. If I were you, I'd challenge myself to keeping up with my studies and being in a co ed school because the real world isn't just all girls. The real world is a lot harder than school, and you won't be able to run to an all girls place then. However, if you really feel like it's a good idea, go ahead. No one's stopping you.

Are you serious? Just because I'm around females a lot at an all girl's school does NOT mean I'd be a "dike". Are people really this ridiculously stupid? Everyone elses answers, though. Great =]

College for me was hard b/c I came from a high school where I didn't have to study. Study a lot, but have time for fun. Going to the all girls school is a great idea. No need to think you've done something stupid like fall in "love", which is impossible at this age. Anyway,just study and have fun with your friends. There's plenty of time for boys when you're not trying to graduate. You'll do fine.

I think you have to choose what is right for you. Some of the best schools are all female like Smith, Wellsley and Mt. Holyoke.
That said, part of the college experience for many people is going to a co-ed college. It is really fun and its not like its a non-stop party, you do study and go to class.
Also, something for consideration, pretty much the entire world after college is co-ed, companies, lawfirms, grad schools, hospitals, etc. Some would say that you may want to get used to working with men as you are going to happen at one point in your life or another, right?
Good luck and keep me posted.

Hi There. Everyone's experience is completely different. I think college is what you make of it. The point is that you have an endless amount of options. You can commit yourself to being successful in any environment.

Going to an all-girl's school is a personal choice. But remember, you're not living in a vacuum. It's not like men aren't in sight, or that you don't see them on weekends or outside of class. They just don't share the same room while you listen to lectures. To me I don't think you would meet an equally diverse group of people, and most of college is about experience and friendships. Making it about men or parties or living in the library studying is a choice.

You have your whole life ahead of you and can move in any direction. Work hard and enjoy being young and without great responsibility and you can't go wrong.

Good Luck,

Anne Nonimous
