The girlfriend went out tonight partying and was drunk texting me (I decided to try something distance so I couldn't go with her). The problem is she as no self control and is easily swayed by peer pressure. I'm rather worried about her. Also I'd love to go to sleep but my room mate has four friends over (in my 11x15 dorm room...). Tonight sucks... but not as much as this car! See what I did there?

Go spy on your girl. It'll be fun, with no obvious negative ramifications.

I'm at Purdue she goes to IU. We have been friends for years and started dating over the summer.

This is obviously sane and sound advice that could in no way backfire or make you look like a terrible person.

My wife always though it was hot when I stalked her when we first got together. We're a bit nuts though.

Indeed. I would also suggest videotaping her from afar, with honest, yet curt, commentary. Show it to her in the morning so that she knows how to rectify her behavior in the future.

Surely you can find other places on campus to sleep.

The top floor of one of our libraries is basically a hallway with some benches and like two classrooms that never get used, so I take naps up there sometimes.

Okay, what the hell. Your clock says IIII for a reason. Are you trying to gain her trust so you can murder her later, or are you just a horrible traitor?

(I really don't care about any school rivalries or anything, for what it's worth. But I bet you both get chewed out a lot for it.)

IU has a decent ratio of male/female so you should be okay. Engineering students tend to drink a lot more and have many more men than women and those men are.......well, desperate is a kind way to describe them at some of these places. Just do what you think is best and if you learn a lesson the hard way, take it to heart. OR you could learn a lesson in the good way and you did things right and everything goes better than expected. You can also make ramen noodles at 2 am, plug in a super nintendo and challenge a friend to SNES mario kart for a few hours. Oh and sing "Piano man" loud enough to wake your RA at the end of the hall. Alcohol was involved with that moment. Luckily no one ever suspected the tan colored 2-liter of mountain dew........Wait what's the problem here? Something about women? Eh, you have to let the chips fall where they may. ANd your chips are falling on an old trans am and ramen noodles with mario kart.

One of my fraternity brothers dated a girl who got sexually aroused by being tied up and locked in a box. I found this out when I sat on her box and heard a moan.

The girlfriend clearly wants you to hang out. The roommate needs to get a lecture about 5 people in 11X15.

The piano man story was legendary when we got half the floor to sing it once the patrols stopped at 2 am. Also, shirtless philosophical pong. Playing beer pong (root beer in the cups because dorms) at 4 am while discussing philosophical topics about life and personal struggles with no shirt on. Sounds pretty weird, but good life decisions came from it.

Yeah, the whole rule of stalking is the girl has to like you and appreciate the idea. My wife said if the wrong guy stalks you it's creepy and you want a restraining order but if the right guy does it it's like something out of a chick flick.

Actually, they probably had the happiest and most stable relationship I saw out of a college couple. Their sex life resembled machine shop but hey, to each their own. He had an engine hoist in his bedroom........no engines were being hoisted, but there was some piston action on the walls and ceiling.

My little brother wants to go to LTU so I'll have to steer him away from that now, thanks for the warning :P. And no, no women participated in shirtless philosophical pong. There were not that many women. Ever. Engineering school, bro. Besides, it only happened twice that I was aware of. Ooooooooohhhhhh, but kitchen pong was also hilarious. A really introverted, nerdy guy named neil got dragged out to our apartment and we only had space for a pong table in the kitchen. Now Neil is secretly a standup comedian, he just has the burden of sobriety most of the time. So after two beers he stops what he's doing randomly and just yells out "I KNOW WHY YOU GUYS PUT THE PONG TABLE IN THE KITCHEN..........IT'S SO THE WOMEN CAN PLAY!" More good times.........I'd go back but I did enough damage in 4 years. Your turn. Make sure there are very specific rules put in place after you leave.

The sex must be great, or you need a new girlfriend.

You are trying to go to sleep? I stay up all night long! Have you tried asking your roommate if they could leave so you can go to sleep?

Also, the best thing you can do is talk to your girlfriend about your concerns, long distance relationships are hard(probably, I don't know, I have zero experience), but they can work.

You asked for it. One time we came home and found our bedroom door open, which was odd because we typically locked the bedroom door. Looking around noticed my wife's throw pillows were missing from the bed. Went into roommates room to look for them. Found them on their bed. Went to pick one up and tossed it back down immediately. Roommate is actually two roommates, wife's childhood best friend and her boyfriend. I found soiled diapers hidden behind the two pillows.

Apparently the boyfriend has a thing for wearing diapers while doing the deed. Decided to steal our pillows and use them to hide the evidence.

First of all, LMAO.

Secondly, how could you NOT like this? She wants to get off by being locked into a box. You lock her into a box, go make some nachos, turn on some good TV, and kick the box a few times to get her off. IT'S A WIN-WIN.

I'm not sure I'm capable of creating havoc outside of the FoST. Driving loud should be enough for my contribution. I'm somewhat introverted myself, but once you give me some beer and new people, it's always fun. I'm like Raj from the Big Bang Theory, except I don't need alcohol to talk to girls, but it does help greatly at times, which is never; because I rarely go to parties if ever.

And don't get me started on Engineering school girls. Of the minority here, the majority are already taken because high school BFs, got BFs at LTU(most of the girls seem to be here on athletic scholarships which is why most if not all of them date athletes), are foreign exchange students(a whole different conversation), or just aren't looking for one. If you want a relationship in college and an engineering degree, you better hope you get lucky.

We could go to a car event or something. Don't know of many coming up though. I am not sure. . . I mean as long as we are talking things shouldn't be awkward. Sometime in the future there is a PAPA callout, you could go to that, which is Purdues car club.

Or be an upperclassman. I dated lots of freshmen and sophomore women in my junior and senior years of college once i figured out how to grow up past my old pretentious high school jerkwad self. You'll figure out how to not be such a bag of dicks too. But it is a known fact - high school boys are fucking awful human beings. And until you grow up, you are still one even after you graduate.

But I'm not a pretentious jerkwad...I'm just introverted and kinda shy-like around girls I don't know. I don't talk to new girls unless they speak to me first. Also not sure hownI'm a bag of dicks either, but I'm gonna go ahead and say I'm probably very far from that too. Need more elaboration here.

I do agree with the high school boys statement, that's almost a fact nowadays with the majority; I do however know a good amount of people who aren't like that though.

Neither were personal attacks, I'm just trying to point out that the you you were in high school is completely different from the you you will end up being. And it is almost always a massive improvement. Want proof? Compare yourself on Oppo a few months ago to yourself on Oppo today.

I know you might think a fair number of people in high school were already mature and grown up........and I can assure you they might need to grow up the most out of everyone. Or at least they need to become their own person. It is frightening to see people going through their life after high school without a sense of self. I know of a few people who were star athletes and scholars in HS but that was not who they were, that was merely what was forced onto them. Watching them struggle to figure out what to do with themselves isn't even amusing because you want to help but then you realize that you yourself barely know what you're doing so it's the blind leading the blind who are also on fire. This just became a really fucked up inspirational speech to say "Have an open mind for the next few years, you're going to have the opportunity to learn a lot. If you do not learn it, then may your deity of preference have mercy on your soul when life decides to kick you in the teeth"

IIRC the callout meeting was in late September last year, and they had a few cars set up in the engineering mall before that with info for the club.

Also I think I saw your car last week.

Ive been in that situation before. It wasnt cool.

I congratulate your dedication to try going the distance. There was a lot more in common with our situations than you think. Its not for everyone, and it does take a lot to do. If you two have been managing, thats good, but managing is corporate, and relationships are personal.

I wont tell you the ending, but its time to talk with her about things. You can talk now and see what happens, or you will likely lose count of nights like last night. It can do a lot to someone. You can only learn from experience, so by all means, experience things, but your relationship is going to need a lot of communication to progress. My suggestion is to forego technology, and go see her. Its inconvenient, its hard to organize, but its the best thing for both of you. Respect for boundaries is very important, but you cant decide it alone, you need to do it together.

Honesty is the best policy.

I started dating my fiance senior year of high school and went through college long distance.

The keys are trust and sacrifice. If there's no trust, everything falls apart. Sacrifice, because partying will always be a concern apart. Generally, you must sacrifice partying as often as others to keep the sanity of each other.

That isn't too say no partying but limiting oneself is likely beneficial.

This may be a controversial opinion, but it worked. If you have any questions ask away.

If YOU are the one she's drunk texting, then I think you're alright. I'd be worried if you didn't hear from her. That usually means she's not thinking about you. Don't be worried, just talk to her. :)

I'll have to check, I remember they had one last semester, but I was lazy and stopped going to meetings, although I did go to their autocross event :P

And yes, that is my car, I brought it down for 2 weeks, and now it is with my parents, which I assume my dad is driving around trying to pick up women, as my mom slaps him.
