There are so many things out there that people don't know how to define. It gets confusing, no lie. If you're confused about these terms, the people you tell things to get confused and it turns into a vicious cycle of unknowingness. Its annoying, its confusing, its just fucking terrible in some cases. So here I am. I shall define these things for you. Sure, there will be disagreements, there will be tears, there may even be some hardcore arguments on the difference between "snuggling" and "cuddling". If you disagree, that's fine, but some people need these definitions to properly define what the hell is going on with them. Listen/read and learn.
Cuddling/To Cuddle
Definition: This term is used for two people sleeping next to each other, usually in the spooning position. During cuddling, no sexual acts are made/done. The term is meant to be used in somewhat intimate settings where two people who may be involved romantically sleep comfortably next to one another.
Used in a sentence: "I just want to cuddle tonight."
Snuggling/To Snuggle
Definition: To snuggle is quite different from that of cuddling. When two people snuggle, they may kiss or do other sexual acts that may lead to actual intercourse. Usually after snuggling, cuddling occurs before sleep.
Used in a sentence: "Let's get our snuggle on tonight."
Texting (in terms of relationships)
Definition: Once two people meet at a party or other sort of gathering where phone numbers are usually exchanged, they tend to text for a few days before actually seeing each other again. This is the "texting" phase of a relationship. When texting, there may or may not be other possible partners for each person in the couple.
Used in a sentence: "Oh John is just the new guy I'm texting" or "I'm texting like twelve bajillion guys/girls right now, high five!"
Talking (in terms of relationships)
Definition: Talking is the next step after texting. Once two people hang out again and have determined feelings for one another, they are considered to be "talking". It is customary to only "talk" to one or two people at the same time.
Used in a sentence: "Jan and I are just talking right now, I can't wait to ask her out."
Dating
Definition: Once you actually go on a date (no boys and girls, this does not mean having someone in your bedroom for a make out session) you are considered to be dating. Once again, you should probably only "date" one person at a time. But I'm not here to judge you.
Used in a sentence: "After I took Juanita out to see that new horror movie, I'd consider us to be dating."
Seeing Someone
Definition: This is very similar to "dating". When you go out a few times and hang out with some of your friends together, it is sometimes better to say that you are "seeing" the other person.
Used in a sentence: "No, I don't have a boyfriend, but I am seeing someone."
Together
Definition: Boyfriend/Girlfriend. This is your main squeeze. You guys have changed the facebook relationship status to "in a relationship" and see only the other person. Unless you're a douche.
Used in a sentence: "Yeah, Joel and I are together."
On A Break
Definition: Two people are still together, just exploring other aspects of your life. Personally, I believe if you are in need of a break, a breakup would probably be a better option. No point in keeping things in your life that aren't needed. During a break some believe it is acceptable to explore other romantic relationships. This is debatable among yourselves. Those on a break should probably discuss the terms of the break before continuing further.
Used in a sentence: "George and I are on a break, so I think I'll go window shopping for a new bo right quick."

Things I Learned Last Night
After a night of drinking and adventures, I've learned a lot about myself. Here are just a few things I'd like to share with you, my lovely readers.
1. My yoga mat is my new cuddle-buddy.
I do, in fact, own a body pillow, but apparently drunk me doesn't particularly care for a soft, fluffy, cuddly pillow. No, I want a hard, rolled up, dirty yoga mat. Your guess is as good as mine on this one.
2. I refuse to watch anything that isn't animated.
I went through and started about four movies before finally settling for Venture Bros. one night. Cartoons make for a happy drunk.
3. Showing my friends my Spider Man towel is more important than my face.
Picture this: you're sitting downstairs and all of a sudden you hear someone yelling that she has to show you something. Next thing you hear: a loud "bang". That bang, is me... hitting my face on a wall. That wall came out of nowhere. My face was swollen for two days. I'm classy, I know.
4. I will make you a drink, if you ask.
No guarantees about how good it will taste... I'll probably just mix everything that's in my fridge into a glass.
5. Drunk me is convinced that no one knows that the house is mine.
Drunk me will repeat the following phrase until I pass out, "I....I live here."
6. My bed is wherever I make it.
7. I like to change what I'm wearing. A lot.
8. I like to sleep with plates, tissues, Mountain Dew, and some sort of candy.
All this, in addition to my usual sleeping supplies (and yoga mat).
9. I'll eat almost anything.
Shit I don't even LIKE. Its really gross when I wake up, and can taste that I ate pizza the night before. I hate pizza.
10. I either love you, or hate you.
I make some people tell me they love me constantly. I start yelling at some of my best friends. I tell people I've never met about my deepest, darkest secrets. I lie, can't keep secrets, and tell very odd stories about my cats.
This is just the beginning. If you know me, you know that drunk me is quite interesting. It's going to be a long year, fellas. A long year.

Talk, Talk, Talk.
I'm growing extremely tired of people telling me how to act.
"Don't say this in front of this person" "The person you said this around was offended" ect.
The things I do, or say, are intended for a certain audience. If you are offended by such things, maybe you should look somewhere else for your funnies.
I'm going to say things that are offensive to some people. I'm going to start debates. I'm going to do what I want. So don't try to "cover" for me, because I don't need covering.
Not everyone is going to like what I have to say. But honestly, I'd think less of the world if they always liked what I said.
I don't talk, or type, to impress anyone. I do it to express my opinion. I do it to share.
Stop telling me what to say, how to act, and who to keep my mouth shut around; because, sweet heart, I'm always going to do the opposite of what you tell me.
Love Always,
Lilly

People are Assholes
It's true.
Has anyone else noticed that people are becoming bigger and bigger douche-bags over the years?
Things like this:
(Image taken from: http://www.marinecorpstimes.com/xml/news/2010/12/ap-vet-charged-in-incident-with-church-protesters-120210/030910_funeral_protests_500.JPG)
Should never be socially acceptable.
Who the fuck has the audacity to protest at a fucking FUNERAL?!
Assholes, that's who.
Another example:
When I was a freshman in high school, I was terrified of the seniors. But I also respected them. By the time I was a senior, the freshman class came in and acted a fool. Didn't respect us, let alone fear us. They were complete and utter assholes. Sorry guys, but you were.
Does someone want to explain to me what the hell is going on? Every generation is filled with more and more hate (and stupidity). Why bother hating? Why spend your time protesting and being a complete fucktard?
Just stop. It's annoying.

PS: The Woman in Black is a great movie. The Unborn, not so much.

Technology VS Relationships
I don't know about you guys, but I'm developing an intense hatred for technology these days. Our relationships with others are being compromised due to our lack of personalization in our messages. Why call grandma, when you can send her a facebook message? Why go visit your friends, when you can chat with them on skype? Why ask a girl on a date in person, when you can send her a text? Why leave your room, when you can do almost anything from your computer?
Are we that lazy? Or is everyone just so scared that people won't like their personality that they prefer to stay home and have virtual relationships with people they barely know?
I'm tired of technology failing me. When you want to talk to someone you like, you can either: send them a facebook message, call them, text them, email them, or wait to see them in passing (or a class).
Facebook tends to constantly be updating and removing our messages. What if the person never got the message? What if they just didn't want to talk to you? What if?
I'm so tired of asking "what if" when it comes to trying to develop a meaningful relationship with a person.
So, I challenge you. I challenge you to go visit your grandparents. I challenge you to call a girl or boy and ask him or her on a date. I challenge you to go to your friends house and pay them a visit rather than texting them.
Pick up the phone, get in the car, walk to your grandmother's house!
Do it for yourself, do it for your friends, and dammit, do it for your dear grandmother!

10 Types of College Girls
You voted, we listened. Here at WafflesNMore, we want you to get what you want. Suggestions are always welcome on our Facebook page. Like us right meow.
Now, on with the show:
1. The "Good" Girls
2. The Older Ladies
3. The Sweatpants-Everyday Females
4. The Taken Ones
5. The Party-Girls
6. The Pretty Ones/Fashionistas
7. The Weird Ones
8. The Smokers/Stoners
9. The Socialites (Also Known As: Creepers)
10. The Girls Who Don't Know They're Pretty
Now, on with the show:
1. The "Good" Girls
- Doesn't particularly care to party
- Concentration on studying/school activities
- Causal to Formal dress, depending on the situation
- To get her: Show that you're interested in the things she is interested in. Show support for her needs, but also give her space to get stuff done
- Problem: May not have time for a boy/girlfriend
2. The Older Ladies
- Stable job (usually)
- Mature
- Can properly dress herself
- To get her: Show off your smarts. Show her that you're mature enough for a cougar. Give her a reason to break the rules
- Problem: She might be smarter than you. Some guys don't like girls that are smarter than them. Also, kids might be involved, not to mention
ex-husbands
3. The Sweatpants-Everyday Females
- Laid back
- Doesn't care what she looks like
- Fun, or lazy, depending on the day
- Comfort is her main concern
- To get her: Invite her to do something chill. Or, give her a reason to dress up. Just do whatever she's most comfortable with
- Problem: If you're one of those guys who would rather go out and do something, instead of staying in, this girl may not be for you. Yes, some of them like to go out more often than others, but if she wears sweats every single day, she's probably more likely to want to stay in.
4. The Taken Ones
- By "taken", I'm talking about the girls who have boyfriends back home or that go to a different college
- She's more likely to be a rather good friend
- To get her: Uhm... you may just want to rethink this one, cowboy
- Problem: If this girl and her bo get into a fight or something, bring on the waterworks. Also, be prepared to constantly hear about him
5. The Party-Girls
- You see them at every party
- Constantly dancing or drinking
- Very fun to be around
- To get her: Go to parties, dance with her, be fun and exciting. Get her number and invite her to more parties. Dance with her.
- Problem: She may be too focused on partying. Take it or leave it.
6. The Pretty Ones/Fashionistas
- She knows how to dress and knows she looks good
- Makes appearances at important events
- Tends to maintain a higher GPA
- Either works or has an ATM for a father
- Shopping, just shopping in general
- To get her: You don't necessarily have to have a lot of money, but it's recommended. Tell her she looks nice. Take her to dinner so she can show off her new shoes/dress/hair/whatthehellevershewantstoshowoff
- Problem: She may have high expectations. Plus, other guys will constantly be all over her.
7. The Weird Ones
- Usually shy and quiet, but other times loud and obnoxious
- Dresses how she wants and doesn't give two fucks
- Knows weird shit (such as: why a cat sounds like it's saying "no" when in the car and the sound a butterfly makes)
- To get her: Well, talk to her. Try to figure out why she's "weird". If it's something you can handle, just go for it. Be assertive
- Problem: Depending on what kind of weird she is.. you may develop a problem later on down the line which may or may not include leeches and lemon juice.
8. The Smokers/Stoners
- Dress how they want. nuff said.
- Very laid back. This girl is just living life by the moment. Riding out the wave and enjoying the surf
- She usually shows up to some of the major parties, and has a darn good time
- To get her: See what she's all about. Smoke her out, if you have the resources. Invite her to watch a movie. Whatever, man.
- Problem: Drugs are illegal. There are always repercussions for that if something happens. But overall, these girls are pretty awesome most of the time.
9. The Socialites (Also Known As: Creepers)
- EXTREMELY sociable
- Enjoys meeting new people
- Knows more people than you think
- Knows OF quite a few people also
- You can count on this girl knowing at least one piece of information about any given person that is even slightly related to your social group
- Can be perceived as a "creeper"
- Tends to get invited to all the parties and makes appearances to said parties
- To get her: If she sees you around enough, she's more likely to go up and ask your name. If you don't want to wait, just go talk to her. Get at her on Facebook. Get her digits. She's social. Social in this day in age transfers to social media. Get on it, brah
- Problem: She knows a lot of people, therefore there may be competition. Or she may just be interested in having a lot of friends. (At a later date we'll discuss the peril that is: The Friend Zone).
10. The Girls Who Don't Know They're Pretty
- Usually wears jeans and a tee
- Happy (most of the time)
- Social in comfortable situations
- Funny
- Goes to parties, more likely to want to DD than get shitty
- To get her: Talk to her first. She doesn't know she's pretty, so you have to prove to her that she is. Once you start talking to her, she'll perk up and be thrilled you noticed her
- Problem: She may not have the self-esteem to ask you to go on a date. If you seem like you're blowing her off, she'll give up.
Stay tuned later this weekend for a smaller post dealing with females. Next week, we plan on focusing our attention on something a little different than the past few posts.
Stay Stoked,
Lilly

Things Girls Need To Understand
I don't know about you, but I'm tired of people complaining that they got hurt when they didn't follow the most simple rules of dating. Now, I have to be the mean one and tell some of you girls how silly you're being. Not all of these necessarily pertain only to females, but.. we are the ones who try to be the "exception to the rule" (quote taken from He's Just Not That Into You). So ladies (and gentlemen) please pay attention to the following. It'll save you some heartache, and your friends some time.
If he loves someone else, let him go.
Love is a funny thing. Yeah, you can love more than one person at a time, but this is usually not the case. If a guy blatantly tells you he is in love with another girl (or boy), do yourself a favor and let him go. You deserve someone who loves you just as much as you love them.
If he cheats, let him go.
But he found out he loves me more by being with another girl! No. Just no. If a guy cheats on you, he obviously does not care about you enough to be faithful. You don't deserve that shit. If you think you do, you have more problems than you know about. If a guy cheats once, whats to say he wont do it again?
If he gets really drunk and breaks up with you, let him go.
Ever heard that drunken words are sober thoughts? Yeah. This can be the case more often than not. Trust your gut. If he makes you question your relationship every time he gets plastered, there's a problem.
If he says he wants to be "just friends" in the beginning, don't expect this to change.
This is self-explanatory. If you start developing feelings towards him that he doesn't reciprocate, its best you just move on. Sometimes its best this way. You can never have enough friends.
Stop trying to "Fix Him", he won't change.
Drug problems, beating up on girls, lack of employment, etc. Stop right there meester. Females have this fascination with fixing men. Heads up ladies, we cannot fix them. Especially if they do not want to be fixed. Stop wasting your time on someone who isn't ready for what you can give them.
If he's a dirty fucking liar, let him go.
Lie to me once, shame on you. Lie to me twice, shame on me. Lying is probably the biggest turnoff for me, personally. If you don't have the balls to tell the truth, you don't have the balls to be faithful, or loving, or caring, or any of the other things us girls want in our men. Ditch the liar. Find someone who respects you enough to tell you the truth.
Understand that not every guy who has sex with you loves you.
Girls. The guy you go home with from the kegger at the Goat House is probably not the guy you think he is. After 12 beers, can you really believe anything anyone tells you? Can you honestly say the guy who took you home will call tomorrow? You can't be sure about these things. So quit fooling yourself. Hooking up is a normal part of college life for some, just don't plan on finding Prince Charming at the bottom of a bottle.
Understand that not every guy who says he loves you, really does.
Some guys will say anything to get what they want. This is not the case for all guys! I'm not trying to make any assumptions about men's intentions, but girls need to understand that sometimes that four letter word can be a big fat lie. The guy you met last Saturday who is expressing his "love" for you through text message probably doesn't understand what love is. Find someone who knows what love is. Find someone who is ready for that kind of commitment (if that's what you're looking for).
Simply put, follow the rules. Don't try to be the exception.
But when you do find someone who fits where you need them, and wants what you want, hold on tight and never let go. Have fun while you can and remember that tomorrow is always another day.
