"All I want is for some guy to prove to me that they aren't all the same." This line runs through the minds of young women on this campus on a daily basis. Rather than sweeping a girl off her feet with a romantic dinner, maybe flowers, and an innocent kiss at the end of the night, dating has transpired into this:
Go to a bar, get a drink, dance with a cute boy, drink some more, leave the bar together, go home and hook up, repeat for 3 or so weekends... and VOILA! you have yourself a relationship.
At what point though was there the thrill of the chase involved? What about the anticipation of getting ready for a romantic date out with a boy, and spending more time brushing your hair than you would if you were going to meet Matthew McConaughey?
Guys all were asking for is a little more from you then the routine go to bar, find pretty girl, kiss said girl, and BAM label it on Facebook as a relationship. (We all know it's not 'real' until it's on the newsfeed).
Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I wouldn't mind a nice dinner and a movie with there being no expectations of a sexy hookup following.
It's sad to say, but it does seems as if dating has in fact become dated.
