so, i'm trying to figure out which colleges i should look at. my mom thinks i should be looking at womens colleges. but i'm not sure i really want to go to a school with only girls. i mean, yeah, i like girls. duh. but i dont know if i could handle living with only women. that's just way too much estrogen. plus, i love hanging out with guys. but, a womens college is likely to have more dating options.

so, what do i do? give up hanging out with guy friends and take a whole lot of estrogen so i could possibly find the girl of my dreams, or go to a school with less of a possibility of that, but be able to have closer relationships with guys, and way less drama?

....

stupid college.

Why not ask yourself what

Why not ask yourself what else you want in a college first? Like, do they have what you want to study? Are there any extracurriculars you have to be able to do? Do you like the size of the school? The dorms? The food?

:-)

Seriously, though: I'm not an expert on college searching, even though I've been through it. But there are definitely more things than dating options to consider. Probably any college that you go will have a healthy share of cute girls, and I don't think you can set out to find the “girl of your dreams” without the aid of a crystal ball — you have to let fate bring her to you!

In short, I think it's most important that you end up at a school you'll like with or without Future Dream Girl, and that you don't stress yourself to death trying to find that school.

I better stop talking about college searching before I get carried away — but I hope that helps!

Estrogen.....

Personally, I would advise co-ed college, because I go to an all-girls boarding school and have realized after only one year that I miss having guys as friends. On the other hand, I have found my girls' school to be empowering, partly because I can be away from the annoyances guys can provide. Also, I've found a friend there who has helped me come to terms with and appreciate my (bi)sexuality.
In any case, I strongly agree with the previous comment. Finding a place where you feel like you belong is the most important thing, because when you do, you will find people like you there, regardless of the percentage of guys or girls. In the end, I think that someone's personality is important to finding "the one", and if you find the right place for you, it will be more likely to be the place for your love as well than a college you attend just because it's full of girls. However, if they happen to be the same place, take that chance and run with it!

I hope my advice can help.
