There's nothin' like spring love

Do you ever feel lost? Like you're not sure which direction to take in life? Let's face it - sometimes we need help navigating this crazy thing called college. That's why I'm here. Consider me your third-party, impartial columnist. You have questions, and baby doll, I've got your answers. Or rather, I can provide my spin on things. So sit on down and buckle up, 'cause you're in for a big ol' Sass Attack!
If y'all finding yourself in a hardship, seek me out at entertainment@thetriangle.org. Make sure to put "ADVICE" in the subject line. I got your back, sugar.
I have been with this guy for the past five months and it's been really good. The only problem is that I only see him on the weekend, and we barely talk during the rest of the week. How can we get closer?
It is no secret, relationships are not easy. They take a lot of work to maintain. This can be especially difficult for a college student with everything else going on among class, work, projects, papers, friends, parties and shopping. You get the idea. Add a boyfriend to the mix and you have one hell of a busy day-planner.
So, you guys have made it five months. That's great. I'm assuming you have some kind of commitment to each other. What you need to do is try your best to spend time together. Granted you are probably quite busy, so be creative! Being together doesn't always mean physically. If you have a quick break from class, call him. End of the day, working on some no-brain homework, talk it up. Not far from bed? Why not video chat on Skype? Take the time you have to talk. And remember, "Distance makes the heart grow fonder."
I'm a bisexual girl and I'm seeing this guy. He is in an open relationship with a bisexual girl. She doesn't care. If anything, she wants to join in. I really like him and he really likes me. What should I do?
On behalf of all my male heterosexual readers, thank you. I'm pretty sure this answer could become very smutty. I could say, let her join and make the best of it! However, it seems like you may want her out. The thing is, you have very little control over that. If the issue is that you do not want to share him, you really only have one thing you can do. You must confront him about this. Be honest and tell him you don't like him seeing the other woman. You really can't do this expecting much. He already has a history with this other woman. It would be lovely and fairytale-esque if he were to leave her and sweep you off your feet to happily ever after, but this is reality.
