My friend casually raised the theory that goes, “It’s summer and it’s beginning to be hot. I think the heat is one of the factors that create this hostile environment between people. It explains why it seems to be a season of break ups or brawls in and outside cliques.”
Pretty reaching, eh?
I was left baffled by the statement and I had to pause and digest what he said. I had to ask myself, “can the heat cause break ups?”
I have no scientific proof to support this somewhat weird theory. My mind can’t reconcile the facts and ideas. I simply find …read more

Hey, ladies!
I know how tempting it is to grab that opportunity to hook up with that man you’ve been eyeing but you have got to let him chase you. This somewhat equates to retaining some sort of mystery around you. I know it sounds so cliché and all but it how nature works. Men are born hunters.
A good tip on how to do this: give that guy one small look that resonates a “maybe”. Make that look give out a thousand of opportunities but holds back the true answer to the question, “do I like you?”. Men will answer to …read more

For The Ladies. When approached, how important is the guy’s opening gambit to you?

For The Men. Just how much effort do you put into your …read more

Reasons why people would prefer hookups:
1. If you’re not actually sure you want a significant other, hookups let you skip to the good stuff at a much faster pace. With dating, you need to find out where someone went to school ten years ago and which modern novel they like best. With hookups, one hopes you exchange names and condom preferences, (ex: her pleasure or extra lubricated?).
2. Hookups are cheaper than dates. Alcohol is an easy to get commodity that can be obtained either free at friend’s party or for very little money if you like drinking the undiluted urine …read more
