College love is a trend. An addiction that appears almost as a necessity amongst students. Unfortunately, very few isolated cases end up in marriage. What keeps them graduating to nothing?
Here are the reasons
Exploration
A good number number of campus relationships are for sheer adventure. The real goal is not to end up together but waste time together for a period and tell tales later.
To Fit in social circles
Friends and peers may all fit into couples and to be the odd one out pushes on to look for a partner just to be comfortable within the circles of interaction.
Cash cows
A reasonable number join relationships to meet certain financial needs. A comrade can stick in a loose relationship as long as the other party is in a better place financially. Luxuries will be easily met. As soon as the party stabilizes, the bond is cut.
Academic boosters
Some relationships especially amongst classmates are for academic gains. Only one person attends lectures, makes notes, sits for assignments and acts as a tutor! Immediately the study session is over, the relevance of the relationship expires!
The above illustrate the hypocrisy and selfish interests in relationships. This doesn't reflect the entire scope of college relationships. There are isolated cases of happy ever after ties that are based on genuine coexistence and love.
