Relationships in College

Some students don't intend or coming to college and meeting their best friend, because they may already have one back home. However, not knowingly their roommate could become their next best friend. The same goes for relationships. Many believe romances formed on college campuses can be difficult to flourish. Some of the best relationships are made in college, whether it's a friendship or a romance.

Roommates often become the best of friends. Students may have best friends at home, but living with someone creates opportunity to build strong friendships. By living together roommates, get to know each other in ways that their closes friends and families don't. They know each other beyond social settings. They get to know each other's personality in a residential setting, which most regular friends won't get the opportunity of.

As far as relationships in college, it can be a very difficult and tricky thing to deal with. Most might say that college is the worst time to try and build a relationship or to even start one. Some come to college hoping to find their future husband/wife, and others come to college just to mingle and to have sexual relations with the opposite sex. This is where things get difficult because most females on college campuses are looking for something steady, while guys are just looking to fraternize and have fun. Neither parties are in the wrong here but when you try to bring these two together it gets difficult. Therefore, when dating, couples need to be clear with one another about their intentions and the expectations they have. That way there will be no more confusion.

Students should keep in mind that college is the time to have fun, and explore all alternatives in mind. If couples feel like they can withstand the negative influences colleges have on relationships, then by all means go for it. Don't be intimidated by these influences. As long as their communication, trust, and hope, everything should be fine.

Students shouldn't disregard the people they meet while away at school, because college is one of the important fields of networking. Its an opportunity for students to build the most important connections in their life.
