Hi there ladies (and gents), we’re about to get real up-close and personal for this one! I’ve given you some insight into my bedroom comfort zones and what my views are on “hooking up,” but this one is going to be really fun.

Let me give you the little rundown of my relationship history: I have been in two serious, long-term relationships (I’m 21-years-old, if you’re wondering) and had a few flings here and there in between. Let’s just say, I’ve either got to know the guy well enough to say some pretty ridiculous stuff (in bed) or at least have enough vanilla vodka in my system to let my inhibitions (and dignity) fly to the wind.

The first time I ever had sex was with my high school boyfriend. We were young and in love and blah blah blah. Either way, when we started having sex, I was silent! I didn’t really know any different. I was smart enough not to venture onto the family computer to do “research” but I was dumb enough not to take a hint from movies and the go-to for teens, Cosmo. I mean, just like every other teenage girl, I was obsessed with that super steamy sex scene from The Notebook, but felt that since I wasn’t being thrust up against a wall and aggressively pushed onto a bed (aggressively is said in the best way possible for this one, obvs…it’s Ryan Gosling) that I shouldn’t be vocal about my experience. Maybe my first boyfriend wasn’t the best in bed, but over time I realized something was missing on my end in our sex life…and it was the dirty talk.

Thus, when I moved into the intimacy realm with my second boyfriend, it was a much better experience. Not only was I a little older and more developed and confident in my body (gee, thanks boobs for bypassing high school and popping up now that I’m about to graduate college), but I had already learned that talking dirty to your partner makes sex a lot more fun! Needless to say, this time around involved more dirty talk, which in turn made for steamier sex. Read More »

Question?! Answer: Ask Tuffy Luv.

Dear Tuffy Luv,

I have a problem that most girls would kill to have. My boyfriend of three years proposed to me.

The problem is, I don’t think I want to go through with it. I’m graduating college in June. He graduated last year and moved back home with his parents. Since then, he’s been working at the mall near where he grew up. It’s only an hour away from school so I still see him all the time, and he seems really happy.

But that’s the problem. He seems really happy just working at the mall. I want to have a whole career and I think I have a chance at getting a job at the firm where I’m interning. I thought the two of us had similar goals, but, since the summer, I’ve come to realize we don’t. He wants to just go to work and come home and hang out, but I want to have a real career and if I have to work late or weekends, I’m fine with that. He gets really sad if I ever stay late at my internship. He says jobs are so you can afford to live, but I see my job as more than that.

We started dating when I was a freshman, and while I like him a lot, I just don’t think he’s “the one.” I feel like we’re better as friends. I’ve known this for a while, but I really care about him a lot (he was my first for pretty much everything, and he’s a really good guy), but I didn’t want to hurt him so I guess I just kind of let it keep going. He’s a good person and I could see myself with him but I just don’t think I’d be happy. Read More »

Here at CollegeCandy, we like to think we’re experts in a few key areas: budget fashion, sex, budget sex and college fitness. That’s why when FitSugar asked us to help them put together a post on keeping fit during those tricky undergrad years, we immediately blurted out, “Wear that cute dress you got on sale last weekend and go bang some hot dude until you sweat out all the beer you consumed the night before!!!”

And as soon as the words left our mouths, we realized that our advice wasn’t exactly sage…kinda like the time your older sister suggested you chug a 40 oz. of watermelon Smirnoff Ice. So, in light of our personal inadequacies when it comes to workout tips, we decided to toss this one over to a few of our trusty writers — the real CC fitness pros.

Head on over to FitSugar to see what they had to say about motivating yourself for the gym, scoring stylishly functional duds and fitting a workout into your busy schedule.

I’m going to spend more hours watching new fall show premieres this month than I am going to spend in class. I’m a TV junkie equipped with a comfortable couch and a full DVR.

But I’m sick of watching TV alone with my cat. I want to spice up how I watch these premieres, even if it’s only for a month. Here’s a few ways to watch the new premieres and have an awesome time with your friends. Read More »

Jen Aniston, Demi Moore, and a very photoshopped Alicia Keys grace this month’s cover of Glamour. And what, pray tell, brought these three women together? No, they didn’t all date the same guy, they’ve bonded over breast cancer advocacy. While breast cancer is, of course, a truly significant cause, can we talk about the fact that heart disease is actually the number one killer of women? Six times as many women die from a heart attack or another heart-related ailment than breast cancer. I didn’t know this myself until a  few months ago, and ever since I found out, I’ve been pretty perturbed about the way that breast cancer has become “the” disease for women to advocate for…but that’s a whole other subject for a completely different time.
But on to less heavy topics of conversation…
This month, Glamour’s resident gentleman has decided to enlighten us with four fashion choices that totally turn guys off.

Celebs love Vegas. So do old people, kids, Real World cast members and people who just turned 21. I’ve been to Vegas one time, and my four-day trip is just a blur in my brain. Vegas is an insane place, and people think “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.” Well, sorry Vegas-goers, that only happens if you don’t bring your camera.

Here are crazy photos from people going insane in Vegas. Read More »

With the loss of summer vacation, sleeping-in and homework-free days does come a few perks. The excuse to buy a new coat. The loss of dry, messy, beach hair. And the return of good TV. (And not a moment too soon. I’m one DVR’d episode of Bachelor Pad away from hopping on a plane to strangle Casey myself.)

That’s right ladies, your favorite shows — like Glee and Gossip Girl — are coming back. And they’re bringing with them a few new friends. But which ones will be sitting at the cool table and which will be kicked to the curb before November sweeps? CollegeCandy breaks it down for you ladies right now. Read More »

If you didn’t watch the Emmys last night, well I don’t blame you. With the exception of The Lonely Island plus Michael Bolton and company, there wasn’t much happening. Sure there were some decent jokes, but where was the pizazz and energy? I spent more time laughing at Michael Vick for getting taken down by the Falcons than I did at Jane Lynch’s punchlines. We agreed that if we ran the Emmys, things would have been a lot more exciting. Here’s what would go down if CC was in charge…

1. Justin Timerlake hosting: JT on Saturday Night Live is the best thing since sliced bread. He wasn’t even in The Lonely Island performance! Yeah he won the Emmy for Guest Actor in a Comedy Series, but I was expecting him to at least be there. JT was no where to be found. I think Jane Lynch was good, though I’d rather her played the host role as Sue Sylvester instead. You hear that Emmy Academy? JT for 2012 host!

2. Charlie Sheen and Ashton Kutcher throw down: While the MaSheen kept it classy like San Diego, it would have been pretty awesome to see a fight between him and Ashton instead of Jimmy Fallon vs. Jimmy Kimmel. Charlie is trying to clean up his act, but a shirtless Michael Kelso fighting over tiger blood would have been much appreciated.

3. Modern Family wouldn’t have won every.single.thing: I love Modern Family, it’s hilarious. But it was one of those situations where you start to hate that movie that wins all of the Oscars. Same thing. I’m not saying they didn’t deserve their awards, but I wanted to see some other shows get credit where it’s due as well. Read More »
