To be involved, or not to be involved… that is the
question. If you’re going
to survive college dating, you’ll have to go back to consider the middle
school mindset for a moment. Don’t laugh.… Everyone remembers how the saga
of love went during preteen years.

You’ll meet lots of new and
exciting people in college. Could you find the one for you?
Maybe. Is your
Knight in Shining Armor or the Woman of Your Dreams awaiting you?
Possibly.
However, you can make some poor decisions in relationships simply from lack
of
knowledge – knowledge of what you are looking for. Are you looking for
marriage? Are you in love with the idea of being in love? Are you thinking ahead
to the sea of new faces and personalities you’ll meet, not looking for anyone
in particular? Now is the time, regardless of your dating background, to assess
the qualities you need and desire in a future spouse, as well as the traits you
have to offer. You’ll know when you find the individual if those qualities are
present. It will make you more selective and much more focused on friendship. Do
you know for whom you are looking?
