Many college students have had one, thanks to hormones and Tinder. Most likely it will not be the last one you have in your life. Spring break is the big gest party week of the year. You may have had a one night stand (or multiple, no judgments) during that time. The morning after is so awk ward, what do you do? Have break fast together. Or just sneak away without so much as a thank you? Finding students to talk about this was a little difficult as it can be a taboo topic, but I found a few brave ones who were willing to speak on the subject.

Marissa Nmerem Nick Hadley - Brittany Yount. ; Visilla McDaniel had a lot to offer on the subject. “A one night stand to me depends on your state of mind, like if you’re sober or not,” McDaniel said. “From my experience, if you’re sober, you know exactly what you’re getting yourself into. A one {night stand when you’re sober isn’t something that just all of a sudden happens, it’s something that you work up to. You had that connection before the event happened. In that case the sex is awesome.” I asked Brittany Yount whether or not she would stay the night and enjoy a pot of coffee with her signif icant other-for-the-moment or bail as soon as the deed was done. “If I ever had one, I would leave that night because I like to sleep in my own bed,” Yount said. One night stands have become such a cultural norm that you can now buy pre-made ‘One Night Stand Kits’ filled with all the essen tials you need for your midnight rendezvous. Most of these kits are geared towards women, with emer gency eye liner, cute underwear, toothbrush, dry shampoo, deodor ant, a tiny brush to fix that sex hair afterwards and condoms of course. Better safe than pregnant! Everyone’s one night stand is different, depending on the circumstances. “The last one night stand I had was with someone I knew and I bailed the next morning and haven’t spoken to them since,” said Melissa Hagerty. “I felt fine because I knew it would happen, and I knew what it was.” Whether it’s someone you know, or someone you just met, always make sure you’re safe. Have a bud dy system, never accept a drink unless you see the bartender pour it and never leave your drink unat tended. Make sure you’re comfort able and both partners are consent ing and able to consent. Remember, you can’t sneak away from STDs in the morning, so use a condom everyone!
