Finding love in FSU Craigslist and ‘Class of’ Facebook groups
FSU gets thirsty
Valentine’s Day has come and past, and most of us had known for weeks in advance we were finishing an entire bottle of wine by ourselves while watching rom-coms.
However, other FSU students weren’t so ready to give up on being alone on Valentine’s Day. Instead of resorting to picking up babes using anything mainstream like the infamous Tinder or the petrifying act of walking up to someone and introducing yourself (the worst possible situation in the world), some FSU students settled on Facebook to find true love.
Adopting the process of incoming freshmen who, in order to meet future roommates, attempt to sell themselves by posting a minor bio and what they’re looking for, students of all ages did something similar in honor of the holiday of love.
The one who kept it real
Curfews were lame in high school, but now there are exponential benefits to cutting a date short. Alcohol is a saving grace when it comes to random dates through Facebook. Jordan, if you got a date, we hope it went well.
The one who wanted to be pet
Sounds easy enough? Sometimes you just have to let the animal-istic side of you get crazy with a few head scratches and shoulders rubs. And with that payment of over twelve million dollars? Talk about a good night.
The one who got ya
Oh, so you thought Valentine’s Day was a hetero-normative holiday? Well you thought wrong. With a cute little fling and a free teddy bear, sounds like a fun deal.
The friend who helps you out when you’re an embarrassed Cinderella
Among the harsh LED lights in Walmart and the faintly bizarre smells, two shared eye contact, engaging in several magical moments unlike any others. Timid and sweet, this woman’s friend decided to help her “meet the love of her life”. A truly noble cause, we admire her bravery and can only hope that Cinderella’s BFF was able to meet her mystery man.
The man who lassoed his lady and lost her
What else could the American dream be other than a sexy cowboy?
The same man who can’t find his bar girl so becomes Mr. Dreamy
What better way to advertise yourself not only as single but ALSO as a man who cares about your feelings than posting a thoughtful and uplifting message for the ladies that justifies them being single? Is he Prince Charming or a con-artist? We haven’t figured it out yet. Either way, people are eating it up.
The friend who is out to tease you
Hard to tell if this post is helping or hurting dear Keno. While having a picture of you with possibly three corn of the cobs in your mouth can be rather damaging to your dignity, it also might come across as a guy who knows how to make you laugh. Submitting your resume in order to land a date is a bit unconventional, but maybe a good work ethic transfers into relationship material.
The guy who caters to all
Known for his previous Christmas package, this guy is a guy who just won’t quit. Offering amazing deals that meet all of your Valentine needs, Hassani doesn’t just play the game, he made it. Hard to beat these packages!
