reedy Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Its just deviation from the standard adjusting-to-grad-school-and-ruthless-academic-life discussions....!! This may sound a little embarrassing but I have never kissed a girl in my life,let alone having a girlfriend. I am already 22 years old. Things just haven't worked out for me. I didn't have any luck in college. Now I am heading to grad school this fall. It seems to me that it would be a lot harder to meet new people in grad school since you will no longer take classes with people from other departments (especially considering I am in engineering)and there aren't as many social activities for graduate students than for undergrads. So my question is can single guys find a girlfriend in grad school? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktel Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm getting a Master's in engineering and I know of two marriages that happened within my small department. I met my boyfriend when I was an undergrad, he is also an engineer. It can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacklunch Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm always confused by these questions...In short, yes you can. Will you? Who knows. Will you meet a cute suitable mate while shopping at Walmart? Maybe? Depends on so many things. Ennue, Debal Saha and sacklunch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have coffee breaks a few times a week and BBQs every now and then, we go on trips together, watch movies... And if you want to meet more people, you could also do it outside the university (e.g. take a dance class, a photography course, a cooking class, whatever your hobbies are).
