KU STUDENTS SPEAK...
What is your ideal date?
"It would be fun to go out to eat and then go play air hockey, foosball or Frisbee golf. Something where you actually get to talk to people and get to know them."
- Samantha Samuel, Sioux Falls, S.D.
- graduate student
What's one special way you've asked someone out?
"I was known for eating Alloids and always having them available, so I offered her one. Inside the tin was written in Sharpie. This is my clever way of asking you out"
Mark Adams, Overland Park graduate student
What is the best date you've ever been on? "The guy I have been seeing took me to Free State Brewery for dinner and we just talked and laughed the whole time ... anytime a boy can make me laugh, he scores big points. He even ordered my dessert for me and then opened my car door when we left."
— Erin Harveth, Tulsa junior

A lot of students don't realize that dating is actually an important and beneficial part of life that a lot of us are missing out on. In a survey at Western Connecticut State University, 50 male students, ages 18 to 23, were questioned about the advantages and disadvantages of college dating. One hundred percent agreed that college dating has benefits: namely, high self-esteem and frequent
interaction with females. The study also found that students liked the added benefits of falling in love, finding companionship and learning what they want in future relationships.
Harveth, who has been on "too many dates to count," agrees that dating frequently helps her figure out the kind of person she'd like to be with in the future. "It's fun to date different types

"Men and women find dating painful because it raises hopes that are usually not met," she says. "We all hate rejection. Strange as it sounds, try not to take it personally. Often, it has more to do with the person doing the rejecting than it does about

of people and get to know them," she says. "Through that, you get to know yourself."
"Don't let the bad experience become larger than life itself. Let some time go by, get the perspective of trusted friends on what went wrong, develop a new strategy if need be, then get back in the saddle. Avoidance can become a problem in and of itself. Above all, don't take rejection personally. After all, that person may have done you a favor."
Of course, there are also some costs when it comes to dating — and not just the hole it puts in your wallet. Dating is scary. It takes guts to ask someone out because, of course, there's fear of

Now you know why you should be dating; so what should you do if you want to go out with that supercute guy or girl from class? Take matters into your own hands, and just ask. These days, it doesn't matter what tradition says — it's acceptable for a girl to ask a guy out. Schwepe says he was surprised when longtime girlfriend Rassmusson first
asked him out, but only because he barely knew her — not because she was doing the asking. It doesn't matter who asks whom, he says, as long as there is mutual attraction and interest. "It's only one night," he says. "If you have a good time, don't worry about how you got there."
The traditional dinner date has been dumped. A 2001 survey found that 91 percent of college women reported a "rampant hook-up culture" in its stead.
