What Do Bentley Guys Really Think?

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bentley chapter.

As all of us Bentley Collegiettes™ know, the fellas at our school tend to be a little different than most of the college guys we see around. They know more about the stock market than any twenty year old should, they are insanely competitive, (you’re gonna argue a call in coed intramural dodge ball, really?) and most important, they are not used to seeing large groups of females (Bentley ratio 60% male 40% female).

Because of these reasons and many more, your typical “guys opinion” article won’t suffice, so I gathered some insider information from four real, typical, Bentley campus cuties, and asked them their opinions on five topics that us lady falcons may be wondering. They may not all think exactly alike, but they all still answer the question:

What do Bentley guys really think?

  

  

 
Could you have an interest in a girl who used to hook up with one of your good friends?
Mack: I think I could have interest in her but would never also hook up with her or date her.
Ben:No, because I have seen them together and that would be going through my mind, plus if it’s a good friend I could not do that to them.
Ryan:Nope, you can’t do that to your buddy.
Isaac:Yes, I could have an interest in that girl. As long as I was attracted to her at the time and she was attracted to me, I wouldn’t see a problem with it.
 
Are tattoos sexy or skanky?
Ryan:I think they can be sexy sometimes, but mostly skanky.
Mack: Depends on the tattoo and where it is. Big visible tattoos are kind of gross but subtle ones aren’t nearly as bad.
Isaac:Tattoos are definitely skanky!
Ben:Let’s just say if my girlfriend had a tramp stamp I wouldn’t be like “Ooh la la.”
 
Do you think the guy should always pay for his lady?
Ben:A majority of the time, with exceptions like if it’s your birthday or if she wants to pay.
Ryan:God no… Because then guys like me would be broke after the first 3 dates.
Mack: Absolutely. Always.
 
 
How long into a relationship do you think you should wait to say I love you?
Isaac:You should have the proper intuition as to when to say I love you in a relationship. It varies from person to person, but at least a couple months of dating should be required.
Ben:When you are confident about it and that she will say it back (or 5 months).
Ryan:It’s different for everyone but I’d say a good amount of time into the relationship.
 
 
Do you think a hook up buddy could ever turn into an actual relationship?
Mack:Yes, I think it’s very possible and maybe even more likely to happen if that is the case.
Ben:Look at the movie Friends with Benefits, it happens, just ask Mila Kunis.
Isaac:Yes, a hook-up buddy could potentially turn into an actual relationship in time, but I think it is very rare for that to happen.
