Couples Disease 

Share definition Flag
When 2 people (both in seperate relationships) are so used to being in a couple that they are adapted to being in a pair. If the other half of the relationship is not around, then the person will try to form a pairing with another person (preferably someone who is also in a relationship). This pairing usually contains no sexual activity, but will usually contain some "snuggling" if it is an other night situation.

These people (ever since being in a relationship) crave being in a pair. This will mean that in groups of 3, if there are 2 people in a relationship and one person who is single, the two people currently in a relationship will attach to each other due to the fact that they have something in common (the fact that they are both in a relationship). This will leave the person who is not in a relationship left out of conversation (see "Third Wheel).
This leaves the single person to realize this, and will give him the urge to write this on urban dictionary (because he has nothing better to do and is single...)

You cannot contract the disease without being in a relationship, as you don't feel the NEED to bond (that doesn't mean they don't WANT to form a bond though...)
Mac is going out with *insert girl A's name here
Mia is going out with *insert boy A's name here

Mac and Mia decide to snuggle up together for the night leaving *insert lonely person's name here* on his own for the night. Lonely person realizes that Mac and Mia have Couples Disease

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
