Where is your hookup going?
Hey Brunonia,
Perhaps I'm jumping the gun a bit because reading period hasn't even started (let alone finals), but I think it's high time that we started thinking about where our hookups are going.
With summer rapidly approaching and with the majority of hookups at this school falling into the category of "undefined," you may be wondering where yours is headed. Will it fizzle out at the end of the year? Will it start back up again when we come back in the fall? Will you keep in contact over the summer? And, last but certainly not least, are you headed toward exclusivity (and therefore the dreaded LDR this summer)? Take this quiz I made to find out!
What your results mean:"No" means exactly what it sounds like: No. This hookup is not really going anywhere (not that that's a bad thing—whatever floats your boat). Your texts consist solely of booty-calling and neither of you puts any effort into getting to know each other on a deeper level. But who needs personal information when you have pure, carnal sexual chemistry? Go you! You almost certainly won't be in contact this summer because the kind of connection that you have depends on actually being in each other's presence. If the hookup is that great, I could see it starting back up again in the fall; otherwise, probably not."Maybe..." if we are being honest, really means "probably not." Short of a Say Anything-boombox-declaration-of-feelings moment, this hookup is going to stay on its current course (not exclusive) and eventually fade out. If you're fine with it being a short-term thing, then cool—neither of you has to worry about keeping in touch over the summer. If you don't want it to end, though, put more effort into getting to know them in these last few weeks of the semester and see if you two have the chemistry to keep this thing going! If you keep talking over the summer, I could (but still probably not) see you two getting back into your hooking up rhythm next semester."Too close to call" means that this is on you. You definitely seem to be on a more familiar level with each other: you hang with their friends and/or express some level of feelings for them, which is pretty damn legit. If you want to make this a serious thing, you could do so fairly easily. You could also just not. You're in a great position because (nearly) whatever you want out of this hookup is bound to happen. Not talk over the summer and pick right back up in the fall? Done. Just end it without too much of a fuss? Done. Sext all summer? Done. The ball's in your court."Yes" means this is looking like exclusivity. Hanging with their friends? Mentions of exclusivity? THE FEELS!?? Sounds like a budding relationship to me. Pump the brakes hard if you're not ready for that level of commitment with this person, especially with summer right around the corner. But if you are ready to be in a relationship, yay! Unless it is looking like you two will be in a committed LDR this summer, in which case... I wish you luck on your harrowing journey.Only a few more weeks until summer. You've all got this!Love,DemiGraphic via Neilly Tan '18.
