Is dating in college a good idea?

There is no one answer to this question. Some say it’s a great idea, while others think it’s absolutely terrible. But really, it all depends on your situation.

🧐 Key Tip: You’ll have to look deep within yourself and ask yourself why? Here are 3 questions to answer truthfully.

• Why do you want to date in college?

• Are you just looking to date because you’re afraid of missing out?

The more truthful you get about why you want to date, the clearer you decision will be on whether you should date or not.

As a young adult, you are often juggling a wide range of responsibilities and learning to navigate their own emotions. Without the right combination of time maturity, and emotional energy, relationships can quickly become overwhelming and even heartbreaking.
