Dear Colleen,

I met this guy while I was out, and right away I asked him what his intentions were. He said just friends, so I gave him my information.

Ask Colleen: Is it worth saving a friendship you may not want to keep?

Ask Colleen: Choose your own career adventure

Ask Colleen: Escaping hookup culture

So far I have been having bad luck with guys. I'm old fashioned when it comes to dating. I get attached easily, so I don't like the hookup culture that surrounds me on the university. How do I get past this? Please, help!

Ask Colleen: When the joke goes too far

I've got a friend who is getting a little too comfortable joking around with me, and it's getting to the point where I feel like she's attacking me personally instead of just messing around.
