Dear Brittany

The other night, I met a guy at a bar and actually ended up giving him my number (a first for me). Now he keeps texting me late at night, and it’s only ever about one thing… It bothers me that I’m only being considered as a booty-call, but at the same time I like the attention. What should I do?

Cheers,

Confused Cutie

Dear Confused Cutie

If you’re looking for the same thing, a meaningless and no strings attached fling, then text him back and let him know that you’re interested. Let’s face it; some people believe that university is one big giant excuse to sleep with anything that moves, without worrying whether or not their parents will barge in mid thrust. But you said so yourself, you’re bothered that he only wants you for a late night booty-call. So forget about this guy, he’s just a huge waste of your time! This isn’t the type of attention you deserve, nor are his late night texts the basis for a solid and meaningful relationship. So get it out of your head that these series of mindless texts are going to evolve into something more, because he probably has a whole list of girls on reserve in case one of you ditches on the evening. He is not going to change.

Find a guy that will text you mid-afternoon to see how your day at school is going, or whether or not the two of you would like to meet up at Weldon to study. You’ll get way more fulfillment out of it. So please don’t sell yourself short for immediate gratification by texting this guy back, hold out for the real deal!
