Our college years are full of dramatic “I’m not a grown up!” moments- mostly unexpected, and typically unwanted. Anonymous Valley writers discuss it all, from avoiding basic responsibilities to dealing with the big, bad future. Let’s talk about it.
I absolutely love to dance. It’s not good dancing, but whenever I hear one of my favorite songs playing I am the first one to bust a move. You’ll see me trying to doing any type of dance move from “screwing the light bulb,” to “moving the lawn,” to Shakira’s “Hips Don’t Lie” or Beyoncé’s ‘Single Ladies.”
But the one type of dancing I simply cannot deal with happens to be the most popular type in college: grinding.
Even the word itself gives me the chills. Grinding is basically like, “Hey! I don’t know you and I probably never will get to know you, but let’s intimately rub our body parts together while listening to House Music.”
My fear of grinding goes back to 8th grade, when the high school I was going to attend hosted a dance for the incoming freshman. During the dance, the boy who I had a crush on during middle school (who was obviously the main topic of my diary) asked me to dance. What I didn’t know is that boys in my grade were experimenting with this dance move called “Grinding.”
Little innocent me, who never even had her first kiss and still got excited about being hugged by the opposite sex, was told to face the opposite way of my crush and lean my body downwards while he pushed all his weight against my behind. HECK NO!
It was just so weird and uncomfortable. I had never been touched like that before in such a casual way. You would think that I would be scared of boys or dancing, but no, I’ve matured since then.
Actually in college, I’m a total Frat Star. I have my endless supply of frackets and my going out wardrobe doesn’t change from summer to winter. And I love boys, but this odd fear of mine comes up a lot when I go out to frats because the first thing a guy asks a girl when he is interested in her is, “Hey you want to dance?”
And I don’t think he means slow dancing to Avici. He obviously means grinding. So I always have to come up with some weird response to get out of it and this allows him to think that I’m not interested in him.
I don’t feel comfortable getting so close with someone who I know nothing about. Grinding is basically a sexual act with someone with your clothes on. I mean come on, we all know what it really looks like. Strangers are literally bumping and rubbing their “areas” into each other, and if that’s the way I am supposed to find a cute guy around here to date, then no thank you. Boys have to work to get that close to my body, it’s not as easy as putting on my favorite song.
If you like grinding, have at it! Grind away! Maybe I’m just weird and there aren’t any other people like me out there who feel uncomfortable doing it. But if you do agree with me, don’t be afraid to tell the other person you don’t feel comfortable and continue on with your cheesy dance moves.
Even though this fear that I have makes it a little harder to have a guy pursue me since it requires more effort, I think it helps me too. Because one day I’ll find that guy who will love to do ‘The Sprinkler” with me, and all that touching and intimacy will come in good time.

Been on Single Bet Calculator for about four months now, mostly on my phone during the commute, so this is just my experience. Their lobby’s bigger than I expected — somewhere around 2,500 titles going by the counter, with the usual suspects present: Play’n GO, Big Time Gaming, Microgaming. Gates of Olympus and Sweet Bonanza are the ones I keep going back to, although the older NetEnt slots feel less brutal.
Their sign-up deal is 100% up to ?200 and 100 spins, with wagering at 35x which isn’t the worst I’ve seen. To be fair, it took me longer than I’d have liked — you’ve got 7 days to use them, which is a bit stingy. They do a little no deposit bit as well — about ?10 when you complete KYC, small, but I’ll take it.
I’d say the live side is the stronger half. It’s Evolution running it, meaning you’ve got actual dealers, loads of roulette and blackjack seats, and the game shows like Crazy Time and Lightning Roulette. Streams hold up fine on 4G, which some sites still can’t manage. Worth a look at the up-to-date terms over on [url=https://www.shippingexplorer.net/en/user/james76f0e1/319539]read more[/url] before you deposit.
Getting money out of Single Bet Calculator have been decent — e-wallet took under 12 hours for me, debit card ran the usual couple of days. You’ve got Visa, Mastercard, e-wallets and Bitcoin, deposits start at a tenner. My first withdrawal got stuck in checks — they wanted a utility bill which took 48 hours.
Registration’s quick, no messing, properly licensed for UK players which is the main thing I check first. There’s no dedicated app, it’s a browser thing and honestly I don’t miss it. The live chat at Single Bet Calculator answers within a few minutes usually, though you have to get past the bot first. Once you get a person they’re fine.
Signed up to Single Bet Calculator for the best part of a year, mostly on my phone during the commute, so make of that what you will. The game selection is properly stacked — about 2,500 games last time I looked, and the usual suspects in there: NetEnt, Big Time Gaming, Betsoft. Sweet Bonanza and Book of Dead get most of my spins, though I’ve had more luck on the Megaways stuff.
The new player bonus was match up to ?300 with 100 free spins, with wagering at 40x on the bonus. Not gonna lie, it took me longer than I’d have liked — the spins expire in 7 days on the spins, which felt tight. A no deposit offer floats about too — around ?5 for verifying your account, nothing life-changing but free is free.
Live section is where I actually spend most of my time. Evolution power it, so you get real croupiers, about 40-odd tables, and the game shows — Crazy Time, Monopoly Live, that lot. Streams hold up fine on 4G, and that matters when you’re on the train.

Withdrawals from Single Bet Calculator have been decent — Skrill came back in under 12 hours for me, card withdrawals took the usual couple of days. You’ve got Visa, Mastercard, e-wallets and Bitcoin, deposits start at ?10. My first withdrawal got stuck in checks — standard documents and it sat there two days.
Took maybe three minutes to open the account, UKGC licensed so the usual deposit limits and reality checks are there. They don’t do a native app, the mobile site just works in the browser though an app would be nicer. Support at Single Bet Calculator answers within a few minutes usually, though you have to get past the bot first. Human staff sorted my query in one go.
Signed up to Single Bet Calculator for about four months now, mostly on my phone during the commute, so take this for what it’s worth. Their lobby’s properly stacked — about 2,500 games by my count, and the usual suspects present: Pragmatic Play, Yggdrasil, Betsoft. Sweet Bonanza and Book of Dead are my usual go-to, although the older NetEnt slots feel less brutal.
Their sign-up deal is 100% up to ?500 plus 75 spins, and you’re looking at wagering of 40x which isn’t the worst I’ve seen. To be fair, I nearly didn’t clear it — you’ve got a week to use them, which felt tight. They do a little no deposit bit as well — around ?5 when you complete KYC, small, but I’ll take it.
I’d say the live side is the stronger half. It’s Evolution running it, so you get actual dealers, loads of roulette and blackjack seats, and the game shows like Crazy Time and Lightning Roulette. Streams hold up fine on 4G, which is more than I can say for a couple of other sites.

Getting money out of Single Bet Calculator have been quick enough — e-wallet took around 6 hours both times, debit card ran the usual couple of days. You’ve got Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller and Paysafe, deposits start at ?20. The KYC held me up the first time — standard documents and nobody chased it until I did.

They don’t do a native app, it’s a browser thing and honestly I don’t miss it. The live chat at Single Bet Calculator runs round the clock, though the first reply is clearly a bot. The actual agents knew what they were doing.
Signed up to Single Bet Calculator since around February, usually in the evenings after work, so make of that what you will. Their lobby’s genuinely big — about 3,000 slots last time I looked, with the usual suspects present: Play’n GO, Big Time Gaming, Betsoft. Sweet Bonanza and Book of Dead are the ones I keep going back to, although the older NetEnt slots feel less brutal.
Their sign-up deal is 100% up to ?200 and 75 free spins, with wagering at 35x on the bonus. Honestly, I nearly didn’t clear it — you’ve got 7 days to use them, and that caught me out. There’s a small no deposit thing too — around 20 spins for verifying your account, small, but I’ll take it.
