" Compared to high school, you&amp;#039;d think there&amp;#039;d be way more opportunities to get asked out on a date in college, right? There are definitely more guys, but I&amp;#039;m finding out that they don&amp;#039;t really ask girls out on &amp;quot;dates,&amp;quot; at least not where I go to school. This week, I learned how confusing dating can be in college. There&amp;#039;s this guy I&amp;#039;ve been texting lately who I&amp;#039;ve been wanting to hang out with more. My friends don&amp;#039;t get why I like him since he has a reputation for being a jerk. I can&amp;#039;t really explain it either, other than the unfortunate fact that I like a guy who is a little rough around the edges. He never really takes girls on dates, so I felt special when he started texting me.  It turns out that I should have listened to my friends&amp;#039; warnings! When he asked me to hang out Friday night, I said yes. When I came over, a bunch of his friends were already there. I watched them play video games for an hour, getting restless and wondering when the date portion of the evening was going to happen. When it finally occured to me that the night wasn&amp;#039;t going to get better, I started texting my friends to see who could pick me up. Why would be invite me over if he was going to ignore me the whole time? When I got up to leave, my &amp;quot;date,&amp;quot; rushed over and tried to kiss me goodnight. That&amp;#039;s when I realized he had no interest in getting to know me at all. He just wanted me to hook up! My feelings were definitely hurt and I felt frustrated for wasting my Friday night when I could have been having a blast with my friends. I learned the hard way that only seeing what you want to see in a guy just isn&amp;#039;t worth it. Is it even possible to &amp;quot;date&amp;quot; in college or am I expected to hook up with a guy and then hope he&amp;#039;ll ask me out later? What do you think? Let me know!
