Relationships form an integral part of college life. For the first time, you have the opportunity to be away from the tutelage of your parents and the freedom to choose whom to date. Many college relationships are wasteful and potentially harmful and they hurt women more than they hurt men.
There are two immutable truths when it comes to a woman’s life. Time and biology serve women more harshly than they do men. And so, if you waste time dating a loser, or trying to make a relationship that will never work to work, you are wasting time. So, who are the losers? Any man who does not respect you. Any man who does not respect your time. Any man who does not treat you well, abuses you and treats you like a sex machine. Ask yourself: “If I got pregnant, will he take responsibility or will he take off?”
Most women stoop too low to please their boyfriends, who in turn take them for granted. And this can affect the psyche of a girl who thinks she is not good enough. That makes her to give more in a relationship than the man gives. Another class of losers are the drunkards and drug abusers. They will never summon enough ambition to carry them through the vicissitudes of adulthood.
So rather than date such a boy for two years, wasting the years with him, you are better off getting quality from a man who is likely to contribute to your growth. Avoid the cohabiting or marriage trap. There are some men you can grow together with. Try but as soon as you notice he is selfish, run girl, run.
