  1. I'm tired of going out on boring dates... Like how is it that NO guy is what I want no one is just like a perfect fit.

      Girl, it depends on where you're looking. Don't just date ANY guy.

      It isn't their fault you're right, but in this case he just wasn't what I expected at all. Like even when I talked to him on the phone to figure out where the restaurant was I was like shocked by his voice, at that point I just had a bad feeling about the rest of the date. I mean I admit meeting guys on Tinder may not be the best way lol but I'm not meeting them any other way. I considered just taking a break from dating but I just can't.

      it takes a while to meet the right person. maybe you'll find someone in grad school. I know several couples who started out that way and are still happily married today.

      to me, it seems the key to a successful relationship is to find someone who has a lot of the same interests as you. Yet, they're different in many ways to make things interesting and to push you to grow as a person.

      best of luck

  2. I think for me it'll eventually come, when I'm out on my own. I feel mature now just working it's like "wow I have my own cube and stuff" it's crazy to me that I work. I don't think I'm totally immature I think it just depends on the situation and who I am around and stuff
  3. I never have to go inside to the bank, grocery shopping I guess I could see but I mean who am I really going to meet at the local Walmart? I have been going to Walmart for years and met no one so I won't hold my breath on it, get gas...? I mean maybe I actually do know this couple who met at the gas station... Yeah but they are pretty.. Mmm no comment so yeah. The point is I don't go places where I would meet someone to date. Who is going to stop me to talk at the gas station or Walmart? Been there, done that, none stopped me. Anyways going out with a new guy tonight I met on Tinder, maybe this one will work out:) and I'm almost 100% sure he's paying for the date since he suggested the place and seems like he has a decent job. This one seems promising.
  4. I will be trying match and eharmony when I start school in the Fall. My parents offered to pay because they hate hearing me complain about being single and being sad all the time lol
  5. I'm a real worker! I have real work now!

  6. I mean I work so no I'm not out having a ton of convos with random people and unfortunately I work with a ton of girls and taken men. So again how am I supposed to meet someone? It isn't happening at work.... I mean I know I won't be forever at this job but I would like to find someone to be with sooner rather than later. I don't believe in "the one" I think you have have a ton of people you're compatible enough with to marry. Nor do I believe in love at first sight, happened to me, didn't work and so as far as I'm concerned it is total BS. It's ok people who get married before 25 have a higher divorce rate anyways... Obviously I'm not the most bitter person alive at all haha.
  7. I hate when my insides hate me

  8. I filled out my W-4 last week and I was like wow how adult. And I realized how much they take out in taxes!! It is really shitty being an adult lol. I never considered myself an adult you know? Like I am 23 but I'm not an "adult adult" just one in age. I feel like "adult adults" don't have the life I have.
  9. I didn't know you could click the up and down votes to see who gave them.. Ohh a lot of unexpected haters on here!

      It's also unexpected that you feel compelled to upvote yourself.

      I love it:) I get so many down votes I might as well show myself some love.

      I actually originally came to this site because of that. I wanted to search and see how likely it was for me to get into the schools I picked...

  10. Don't you already do this like daily..?
  11. Do you think you were a mature person before you entered grad school? After? I just started my first job and I realized I am kind of not mature. I mean I can handle myself in a mature way, I know how to carry myself but at the same time I just feel childish. I don't know if it is just being in a new environment with people who are adults and live alone and just have really adult type lives. I just feel totally different from them. Even reading threads on here everyone seems so old, I don't know if I am just super young.. which 23 isn't super young at all. I just feel this total disconnect. In the post about car insurance everyone is like "oh yeah my husband and I pay whatever in car insurance" and I'm like I have no idea how much my parents pay and I have no idea when I would pay for my own insurance.. I don't want to to be honest. When did everyone grow up? I mean I know 20s is when major changes happen for me (everyone except me obviously) but holy shit! When did this happen? I can only imagine how grad school will be. I did a web seminar for my program and so many of the people in the program were older like 30s 40s+ they are going to have like a crap ton of life experience stories and I'm going to be like.. "umm I just learned how to use a coffee maker".
  12. I have noticed that too, I just started deleting a ton of people, I don't need the garbage on my newsfeed lol. You have a boyfriend that you live with.. you can easily get married and have a baby now if you actually wanted. I feel like you have no reason to not be happy.
  13. You are perfect for this comment haha
  14. I know I know, I think about this a ton. Problem is academically yes things are coming together really well, but that has never been my top priority. I mean, despite what people on this site think, I am not a stupid girl. I worked hard in school, I got good grades, I worked hard on my SOP, academically I have done everything right. I have done everything right in my personal life too and that got me no where obviously. I am grateful for getting into all my schools and my new job but I want it all to come together like everyone else I know. I want it all.
  15. So I did a fellowship interview this weekend and I think it went well. I want to send a thank you letter but I don't remember the name of one of the interviewers.. I know that's awful. I have been looking online in the faculty department but I'm wondering if I should just send it anyways? What would I say?
  16. Happy people make me want to jump off the nearest bridge.

  17. So I pretty much hate everyone and everything today... Yay what a great start to my day.

      Soft? Feminine males? I'm curious as to where that train of thought leads.

      And if doesn't look like I'm gonna get babies anytime soon so who cares

  18. I think I saw something about this on Pinterest, does it taste the same?
  19. I had so many teachers who had strict no cellphone policies most were ignored, I don't know if you allow people to bring their lap tops but if they can't use their phones they will just bring the computer. I had only 1 professor who I actually made 100% sure I turned my phone off before his class and he was very strict about it the syllabus said "if you use your cellphone or it rings during class 5 points will be deducted from your next exam grade" well exams were hard enough as is without that added stress. Also if it rang during an exam he took off 10. You could always try that, scared the shit out of me and I never used it in that class.
  20. Working with friends definitely less fun than working with strangers

      I know I do! Hopefully grad school will bring me new ones. How did you paper turn out?

  21. Work and make money and date cute guys:) and hopefully go to a ton of country concerts with a cutie. That's my summer goals even though I think working will make that so hard:/
  22. State Farm but my parents pay. I am still under their insurance
  23. Huge interview today! So nervous

      fingers crossed for your!

  24. Italian dishes! I love pasta but I want healthy Italian dishes. For me I want to just learn to eat healthy on a grad student budget. A lot of low fat and diet type foods are more expensive than unhealthy foods. It isn't necessarily about learning to cook it (because I can cook) it is more for me about budgeting and spending money on my healthy eating habits. I intend to go to a lot of natural/organic supermarkets and farmers markets.
  25. Do I have to specifically mention faculty members? I have read up on the mentors of the fellowship but I am not 100% sure I could remember all of them even ones I would want to work with. I mean they all have great backgrounds in clinical social work.
