What happens in college stays in college. Well, not really. Unless you live under a rock, meaning you skip the crucial experience of a flatshare, never compete in a beer pong battle, and run away from jagerbombs, there are tons of hilarious, sad, and cringey stories to share with someone. The question is, who is that person you could entrust them to?
Well, no wonder college kids are sending in their confessions anonymously. Turns out there’s a whole Instagram page dedicated to it titled “Collegefessing” which is basically a safe place to post your best and worst college moments. With a whopping 6M followers eavesdropping big time, the page is somewhat of a playground for the craziness of student years.
Scroll down through our selection of the most entertaining confessions below and let us know what you miss from your college days the most!

College is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so no wonder you want to make the most of it. But there are tons of challenges and choices to make when you first start. From which modules to study, to which campus sport to sign up for, you will face more decisions than you ever had in your life. And what’s more, chances are they’ll be life-changing. So in order to stay focused and get the most out of this incredibly productive and interesting environment, you want to hear some useful advice. And honestly, when I was in college freshman year, I’d have benefited tons from what you’re about to read.

All teachers, grade school through university, should be tested on the subjects they will be teaching AND general knowledge ( thinking of the teacher who insisted a bat was a bird) IMHO.
First, let's start with the elephant in the room. Partying, partying and more partying is a key (although we can debate how key it actually is) part of the student package, but you can always overdo it, making your grades, motivation, and lifestyle suffer as a result.
A good tip from Katie Roiphe, book author and the director of the Cultural Reporting and Criticism Program at New York University, is to learn how to drink. She suggests drinking two drinks fewer than you want to. “You will get more joy out of life if you are alert to it, before that second-to-last drink, when the evening gets slurred. If you drink too much, you lose those lovely, wild moments,” Katie says and added that if you master the art of getting just-the-right-amount drunk, you will have more fun. This will turn out to be a super amazing skill to carry through your adulthood.

I'm the child of an alcoholic, so I don't drink. I feel this on a spiritual level.
Secondly, you have to remember that college years are excellent for making valuable connections. Trying to talk to your college professors is a great thing to do, but many undergraduates feel either intimidated or feel like they have other things to do. But Roiphe argues that your professors will appreciate your making an effort to connect and discuss things.
“This will be useful for you later, if you need a recommendation or a job, but it is also the way to get the best possible education. I know this because I am a professor,” she said and added that “So many of my most important pedagogical conversations happen in my office or outside of the classroom over coffee.”

If you agree, make sure you legally adopt the child. Otherwise, when he is older and earning, they won't be able to force him to give them money. Even more so, if he became famous for something.
Matt Might, a professor of Internal Medicine and Computer Science and Hugh Kaul Endowed Chair in Personalized Medicine also has quite a few wonderful tips on everything from dorm room coffee to study habits to saving cash on tuition. Might’s first advice is to realize that professors are not teachers. “Teachers in high school were trained and certified to educate. Professors spent the best years of their lives extending the boundary of human knowledge, and then won a professorship on their prowess in research. After that, someone threw them into a classroom and asked them to teach,” he argues.

If you don't want your nude photos on the internet, don't pose for them and don't allow your boyfriend to take them. People can't publish your nudes if they don't exist.
Thus, according to the professor, the key to interacting with professors is to realize that they're not teachers. “As researchers, professors have access to the cutting edge. Few students exploit that access, but it's not hard,” argues Might. His advice is to ask a professor about their research since “even the crankiest professor is going to brighten when talking about their own research. If it sounds interesting, ask if they need help in their lab.”

Just call yourself a gamer. Gamer girl is so weird. No one ever says gamer boy.
Another thing to do is to sit in the front row. “A good professor is going to tune the lecture by reading the facial expressions of students. Unfortunately, it's hard to see all the way in the back, so we're really crafting the lecture to those that sit up front, whose faces we can see,” Might explains.
Just like Roiphe, professor Might urges students to go to office hours since it’s “a chance to get one-on-one mentoring from an expert. Plus, when you ask for a letter of recommendation, the professor will know you.” And this is what you ultimately wish when the time comes to look for a job or an internship.

1. If you wanted to lose weight, it’s great that you did and you should’ve been doing this for yourself not for a crush or to fit into a single shirt. 2. This girl owed you absolutely nothing. If your best friend knew about the crush Maybe you should be talking to them? People have different Thoughts about this but I would never go after one of my friends’ crushes. Just because you lost 25 pounds, or 100, or whatever; she is not the prize. 3. If you are proud of the weight loss, be proud and be happy and that is its own reward. you don’t get your crush as reward for doing something for yourself. 4. If you had to lose a bunch of weight to fit into a shirt, it was probably pretty obvious when she gave it to you that it didn’t fit. Kind of jerky, not very considerate. As someone who has had a grandparent give me obviously too small clothes (And obviously way too big clothes) to try to humiliate me into weight loss- That says something about her as a person.

Just because they have had lots of partners doesn’t mean they’re guaranteed to be proficient in lovemaking. The only proficiency that counts is that the longer you two spend together, the more opportunities you have to become better at making each other satisfied and happy and get to know what each other likes. Quality trumps quantity.

Correct. I have had sex with many promiscuous people, and they sucked in bed - not in the good way.

You are. Instead of fearing about stuff you don’t know for sure. Start being honest, to yourself and her. Why does it bother you really? If it was just your performance towards her, why not ask her and take her word for it? I suspect there’s more at work here. Maybe you are jealous, or would have liked to have had more girls?

Her high body count is not an indication of high standards - it’s random standards. She’s confusing lust for love, willing to go to any lengths for attention and hugs, leaving her perpetually dissatisfied.

You rarely have good sex the first time with a person, it gets better with practice as you learn about each other, so if you feel insecure drop the "shame" and ask her if she likes what you do, or if she wants something different... but if she's had 81 but remains with you I'd say you're doing just fine. Listen she's had plenty to compare and she's choosing you, go you!

How about this: She's had lots of sex and says you're good - i.e., she had a broad base of experience against which to make an informed comparison, so she's not just blowing smoke. Now, if you think she's lying to you, then that's a completely different issue, one that's significant, but also one that has *nothing* to do with her past.

I don't believe 81 for one flippin moment.... If she's genuinely had 81 then she's not had time to even consider the standards you think she might have now. Knowing what your partner wants, what gets them going, and how to please them that takes time and care 😊 Quantity is never better over quality 😉
Jacob Phillips 4 years ago
Sex is always going to be better with a partner that you love, she could have had a thousand one night stands that were just awkward drunken shags, none of them are likely to match up to a proper session with someone you love, and who learns what you do and dont like in bed so can satisfy your needs properly

Sasy 4 years ago
Mathematically speaking, say she lost her virginity at 16/17 and is now 21 that is only one guy every three weeks give or take. So there is not really anything shameful about that, when some can go out every weekend and hook up with someone. However telling you 81 is surprising what is that old saying Men times three Women divide by three.

I had so many encounters that I lost track of. I really have no idea. (if I had to guess it'd be near 60-70 maybe idk/idc). My husband had 3. He is aware of these few I had during long term relationships (so 6). He never asked, I never told. But he loves things that I do and these do come with experience so....

Load More Replies... The allure of college life is the multitude of stories and experiences that can be shared. Much like the cocoon of anonymity that the internet provides, anonymity in digital spaces can be liberating, offering a chance to confess and share stories, whether humorous or embarrassing.
For those curious about the impact of candid confessions, exploring the emotional catharsis these confessions can provide could offer valuable insights.

Communicate. It's hard to open up, but she is your lover and partner, and your true loved ones will always be there for you, without judgement or condition. It's difficult to just blurt out, "I have depression," but depending on you two and her understanding of depression, it's best to go slow. Sometimes, admit that you indeed don't have the energy and would rather stay home and not put up an appearance. The best thing to say is, I think, "There's something I want to share with you just so you can be aware. I've been dealing with depression for a long time, and it's been taking a severe toil on me to put up appearances. I'm seeing a therapist and/or getting medicated; it's not your responsibility to keep my mental state in order, it's mine. So, this is not your burden to carry. I don't feel comfortable with explaining this more. I trust you enough to tell you all this at least, and I hope that you'll be understanding." You're worthy of love and respect.

You know this is kind of like being on the same page about parenting styles. I dated a guy whose dog destroyed property, dragged him during walks, would bolt off, wouldn't come when called, jumped on everyone and got them muddy or scratched, and pissed all over the house so I can relate to this other than using numbers to rate a woman.

Whatever decision you make should have nothing to do with your ex. If you want to do this it should be because you would enjoy it, if you don’t want to do this it should be because you’re not comfortable with it or just because it doesn’t appeal to you. Your ex should not be a consideration here. Since he is I kindly suggest you are not in a place to do this.

Why do you care if she deletes it? people keep lists. Whatever reason she has, it’s her reason and her choice, don’t be insecure about it. It doesn’t change who she slept with and when, she’s the same person it’s just something on paper.

Cut it off because it will never change. I hung on to a friendship for 8 years. He was in love with me. We had 'the talk' so many times but he thought I would change. Ended in year 9 after an ugly situation. I really broke his heart so in hindsight, I should have ended in much sooner. Do yourself and your friend a solid and let it go; move on.

Some Americans have you take your shoes off, some don’t. If it’s important to you just ask. Most people will either takeoff their shoes or if they are uncomfortable for some reason decline to come in. Nobody is going to insist on wearing shoes into your house unless they are some kind of sociopath.

You say “talking about her problems “were these problems like “ they got my order wrong at chipotle and I was really disappointed“ or “ so they’re waiting for confirmation, but they’re pretty sure it’s cancer. I also just found out they have to put my dog to sleep. I am so distressed I can’t keep up with my coursework and I may fail out of school. I don’t know how to cope.” All problems are not equal. If she had some real REAL problems she is not the jerk in the situation. I say this as someone who got called out for forgetting a birthday literal days after watching my mom die.

In a relationship you set the rules, both of yall. Talk about it, and find an agreement that suits both of yall. This works best if both are 99,9% honest, but also only if both stick to it. But you can still change and alter agreements. My wife and I know quite detailed where cheating begins, and what’s ok. And also what we would do if one really wanted more of a 3rd person. We need this honesty. Others might choose differently, there is no 1 perfect rule or definition.

Or if you had heard this girl was a virgin? What does this have to deal with s**t shaming and misogyny? Do you think you deserve his time because you’re so much better than a girl who has (In your mind) slept around?
