    Friday Faves: The Difference Between Having Sex and Making Love

    In the past six months, I’ve had sex. I’ve been laid. I f*cked. However, it’s been a long time since I’ve made love, and I kind of miss it. Some people might argue that there’s no difference – physically, they are the same. But emotionally, passionately, and mentally, the two deeds are very different.

    He Said/She Said: I Need More than Just a Willing Partner

    The random hook up. Probably the only thing more common at a college party than drunk people screaming to Journey. That’s why people are there, isn’t it? That’s why we girls spend hours picking out outfits that are sexy without being too slutty, and risking third degree burns with a flat iron.

    Friday Faves: What Not To Do When You’re Breaking Up

I ducked into the nearest clothing store to pick up a cheap new shirt, and found myself staring at a lime-green, rhinestone-encrusted t-shirt reading “My Boyfriend Is Cuter Than Yours.” Next to it, a similar horror, this one reading “I May Be A Flirt, But My Boyfriend Likes It.” Above it, “I’m A Diva! Just Ask My Boyfriend!”

    He Had a Girlfriend…And I Hooked Up With Him Anyway

    There are lots of things you don’t know about a man when you meet him at a bar. Like, where he lives. Or who he knows. Or, sometimes, his name (which makes the phone number exchange mighty awkward the next morning). It is all part of the mystery, the fun…and the nature of the situation. Usually it’s better that way; knowing that kid likes Star Wars is not going to help set the mood.

  • Strangers with Candy…Or Condoms

    Strangers with Candy…Or Condoms

    Remember when you were little, and your parents gave you that “Don’t talk to strangers” lecture? Well, approximately a decade or so later, we find ourselves in college. At bars. Talking to strangers.

  • He Said/She Said: Controlling Birth Control

    He Said/She Said: Controlling Birth Control

    I used to think that guys who carried condoms in their wallets were big cocky jerks…until I found myself naked in bed with a super hottie who not only didn’t have one on him (or, rather, in his wallet), but didn’t have one anywhere in his apartment.
