They may not openly admit that, but if you observe their behavior for a few months, you'll be able to see it. There's nothing wrong with wanting to meet Prince Charming while you're at college, and it's true that some couples do meet at college.

3 Ways to Handle the Wait Without Losing Your Faith

Is This What Lonely Feels Like?

I know what it feels like to be the outsider looking in. So that's what this poem is about—watching your friends start dating, get married, and have families.
