Date idea of the week
We hope to provide our fellow students with a fun and unique date idea in every column. For this week’s issue, we recommend building a LEGO set is a great way to build your relationship!
Spending an afternoon building a LEGO set and listening to music is a fantastic way to bond with your partner. Working together helps communication and creates a goal both of you can work towards together.
Nowadays, LEGO produces tasteful and beautiful sets that are more appropriate for a college audience. Sets like this include their Ideas series, Architecture series and Art series. These sets provide a fun theme while still being aesthetically pleasing. The sets can be displayed as decor afterward!
If you’re looking for a recommendation, “The Plumber” recommends anything in the Botanical sets. These sets are usually under $50 and are beautiful as decor. He recently made the Bonsai Tree set with his partner, and gives it a roaring thumbs up!
Lovercallers
We call those who reach out to us “Lovercallers.”
This week, we got a lot of responses from those looking for advice. We utilized Yik Yak, a distance-based anonymous messaging forum, to gather our responses.
One user asked, “How are you supposed to express concern about relationships you know are toxic? Last time I tried it, it didn’t go well.”
We at Lovercolumn, specifically our host “Bunny,” recommend that if your friend isn’t listening to your concerns, it might be better to simply be there for them as a concerned friend, rather than trying to make that change yourself.
Another user said, “Almost all of the guys I have kissed or hooked up with have said they didn’t want to enter a relationship, but then entered one shortly after. Am I the problem?”
We feel that the behavior expressed by those you have kissed is less a sign of you being an issue, and more a sign of indecision on their part.
Be less hard on yourself, and try looking for partners who are looking for something more serious.
Our final commenter asked, “Is it an issue if I’ve hooked up with identical twins at separate times?”
This isn’t an issue, though we recommend either not telling about it, or confirming that they are in fact two different people.
One of our guests, “Tripod,” said, “maybe keep this one in the vault.”
