Dear Taren,

I really like this guy and he seems awesome. He’s smart, cute, funny and treats girls with respect (from what I hear and know personally) but I always meet him at dance parties so there hasn’t been much opportunity to talk, and so far it’s really awkward. I really want to get to know him better but I don’t want to put myself in a weird situation with him. What can I do to find if we’re compatible or not? Should I go after it or should I just forget about the situation?

Dear AAM,

If you have $40 at your disposal, set up an account with eHarmony.com and fill out a compatibility test. That way, you’re guaranteed to find your scientifically-proven handsome prince and live happily ever –- in six months or less. Or, if you’re broke (like me), chances are you’ll have to rely on fate to screw your heart over a million times before finding a half-decent guy.

But, in the meantime, give him a chance. If you really like this guy and want to have an actual relationship with him, try adding him on AIM and chatting with him there. If you would rather skip the preliminaries and get to know him face-to-face, try going out with a group. It’ll relieve a lot of the tension. But if neither of you know any mutual friends, take a chance and go on a date. Honestly, how often does a girl find a guy at Northwestern who’s nice, handsome, funny, smart and awesome – with pure intentions? (Sorry guys, maybe I’m just being bitter.) I think it’ll be worth your time and effort to pursue this prospect. However if it doesn’t work out, don’t fret. The right guy for you is out there. Maybe just not at Northwestern.

Dear Taren,

I hooked up with this hot guy but I forgot to get his name or number. How do I find him?

P.S. I was not drunk.

-I swear I was sober

Dear ISIWS,

Um, okay. I think I get the idea. You weren’t drunk. At all. You just “forgot” to get contact information from a hot guy whom you made out with. Good job. How did you get into Northwestern again? Haha. Okay, sorry I couldn’t resist asking. My bad.

Luckily, our campus is small enough that you might have a good chance of seeing him in person or know someone who knows someone who might know him. Or you could Facebook stalk him. Although that might be difficult as you have nothing to go on except his face. If you even remember what he looks like. But other than that, you should just forget about it. If it’s meant to be, you’ll somehow connect again. If not, no big.
