Twelve Times Country Music Perfectly Summed Up College Relationships

"I think I like him, we hang out, but we definitely aren't dating, but I don't think he's with anyone else, but maybe... Not really sure, I hope he's not, but maybe he is, so should I hangout with other people just in case?" Many college students have had these thoughts, and country music is here for support. Here is a collection of country songs which relate to situations and thoughts that you or one of your friends have most likely faced.

Take Your Time by Sam Hunt

"You don't know me, I don't know you, but I want to" This song describes when you first see someone who catches your eye, and the nervous feelings for what could happen if you approach them. As Sam says, "I don't have to take your heart, I just want to take your time".

Mind Reader by Dustin Lynch

So you approached that person like Sam Hunt suggested, and it worked. You are head over heels for this person, and feel as if you have known them for your entire life. If you even get to this stage in college, stop reading now. You are extremely lucky and should not be exposed to the rest of this articles vulgar thinking on college "relationships". Or keep reading because the songs are really good and will make you realize how good you have it.

Most college students can agree that things have not worked as smoothly yet, and here are a collection of country songs that describe these feelings.

Games by Luke Bryan

"You know the one where you call but you act like you never called me, when you see me at a bar and you act like you never saw me". Most of us are guilty of playing games, which never ends up accomplishing anything. We could be upfront and tell people how we feel, but the fear of rejection and embarrassment sometimes overpowers that. Luke says it best, "Nobody ever comes out on top, tell me are we ever gonna stop, playing these games".

Clockwork by Easton Corbin

"You call, I say hello, you knock, I'm letting you in, you say you miss my lips, we kiss, here we go again". When you have feelings for someone, yet only see them around the time the bars close... Need I say more. It's just like clockwork.

One Little Kiss (Never Killed Nobody) by Jake Owen

"One little kiss never killed nobody, one little drank never wrecked no party, thought we were over baby, but you kept getting closer baby... One little kiss never killed nobody, but me". Jake and Easton both have the same idea with this and the previous song , Clockwork. You thought you were over that person, and then you kiss them again. Suddenly, all of the feelings you tried to fight off are back... and in FULL force.

Make You Miss Me by Sam Hunt

"Make you wish that you were sleeping in my shirt, lie about my jacket and tell everyone it's yours, when you're phone rings after midnight and you're thinking maybe it's me, I'm gonna make you miss me". When you miss someone and wish you knew how to make them miss you back...

Somewhere in My Car by Keith Urban

"Words I wished I said, come on the radio, and I don't know why I do this to myself, I know you're with someone else". After what's said and done, there may always be things you wish you would have said differently. The memories run through your head, and Keith is here to grieve with you. "But in my mind, we're somewhere in my car and it's raining hard"

Ain't Worth the Whiskey by Cole Swindell

"I don't care that you've done me wrong, cause I've already moved on, I don't care what his name is, girl it is what it is". Some things are just better when they are over and done with. I'll take a shot to that.

Break Up in a Small Town by Sam Hunt

"She'd be at the red light, beside me, in that white Maxim with a sticker on the back, and I'd act like I didn't see her". College towns are usually pretty small, so you're bound to see an ex fling or boyfriend around. You can either avoid like the plague, or be civil and say hello. Good luck, it's awkward regardless...

Bartender by Lady Antebellum

"8 o'clock on Friday night I'm still at home, all my girls just keep on blowing up my phone, saying come on he ain't worth the pain, do what you gotta do to forget his name". So you and your significant other just ended things... suck it up and go out with friends. Life is too short to sulk around, and Lady Antebellum agrees.

Payback by Rascal Flatts

"Let me guess, somebody done you wrong, and you're lookin' for a way to get your feel good on, Get some pictures on the Instagram and show him what he's mission', straight no chaser, girl on a mission". Most can agree the best way for payback (at least in our minds) is to post good Instagrams, snapchat stories, and Facebook pictures to show them what they're missing...

Ex to See by Sam Hunt

Everywhere we go you keep looking around, fixing your make up like its about to go down, and he walks in, it all makes sense, suddenly you're climbing all up next to me, next to me, I ain't no fool, you rascal you, you don't want me, you just want your ex to see". Because there's just no satisfaction like your old fling seeing you with your new *more attractive* fling.

The important thing to remember is that we have our whole lives ahead of us for love and serious stuff. There is nothing wrong with having fun and enjoying the freedoms of being young and in college. CHEERS TO THAT!
