I'm aware that there isn't that much dating in college especially during freshman year, but rather casual encounters. I am a virgin because I've never really had time or interest in that stuff during high school, but college is a whole new world, and I want to change. I am not the sexiest guy alive, but I am tall and decent looking, so how will I fair?

Dating doesn't occur too often in college. It isn't just freshman year. It's for your entire experience.

Hooking up is low-quality if you ask me. What ever happened to dating? At least get to know someone a few times prior to having sex or foreplay.

But the reason I've heard so many people hook up is because people don't want attachment of any sort with the person, it is purely physical. Sort of like how animals do it.

Heh thanks. I guess it doesn't hurt that the college i'm attending is 55% female and about 20% of the guys are gay

I did read what you said and I will save the dating for later, but for now I'd prefer simple enjoyment.

lol ........ don't forget to acknowledge the disadvantages to hooking up. Some people don't like being used, so make sure your partner has the same intent as you, "hit it, then go separate ways". STDs is another precaution.

That strikes me as kind of creepy. It sounds like you are willing to use women simply for your own sexual gratification.

Some women have the same intent though. That's what is so shocking these days.

I've always been on the opposite spectrum of keeping people at a distance until they can demonstrate dating capability. And so far I've never met anyone like that ha ha!
