there is no better way to learn tolerance and become more culturally aware than by living and interacting with a variety of people. However, there is a dilemma due to this global dispersion: the summer/Significant Other question. Most likely, your S.O. is from another state, or even another country - how do you deal with Penn's four-month summer separation?
For those who want the enigmatic "open" relationship:
-Don't ask, don't tell. Assume the love is constant . and when you imagine your S.O. loving someone else, remember it is only for physical needs. Right.
-Be careful about pictures posted of you on Facebook. It's one thing for your S.O. to stress about you going on the prowl, but entirely something else to see photographic evidence of your escapades.
-Stay nimble, because juggling is hard. You don't want all the flaming batons to fall down.
For those who want to remain faithful and monogamous:
-Buy a webcam. For Skyping, of course.
-A phone call a day keeps the cheating at bay.
-Time-travel back to 1907. They really knew romance and loyalty back then.
-Castration.
For those who want to separate for the summer:
-Enjoy! You win.
