Well, not right now. Maybe early 30s or late 20s. Got med school to finish, gym and all. Girls get in the way of my success, in the gym AND at school.

I had a fair share of relationships. ***** is really more headache than pleasure. Learning from experience, I'd rather have NO headache and NO pleasure than that unfair tradeoff.

The performance at the gym is strongly related to emotions. Likewise, if you're on a downer, your studies would suffer. My opinions about relationships at this point of time is nothing more than a heavy burden slowing me down.

#1. Ask yourself.
Take a long hard look at yourself in a mirror. Look at every candid photo of you on facebook/friendster. Know who you are. Listen to yourself speak in conversations. Watch videos of yourself projecting your voice to other people. This can be a very humbling experience...but facing the truth is the first step.

* Look in the mirror. Ask yourself: If I were a girl, would I date him?
* If I were a girl with options (read: a hot girl), would I date him?

Depends on whether you want an ONS or a long term FUBU.

LoL

Lowblow, but good one I must say.

In all respects, I find better company in man-love companionship to be honest. I share deeper more meaningful friendships with my closest friends (only about 5 in total, from different walks of my life), all of whom are male. Jokes aside I've never found comraderie with girls as I do with guys. It's like how girls have closer girlfriends that they can share everything, but not with their boyfriend.

May seem odd to the observer, but the gym actually fosters stronger friendships. I'm not homophobic or anything, I can take the gay jokes hard as they come (lol, pun), having studied in a boy school. 2 of my close friends were friendships made stronger at the gym. The others were either coursemates or people I grew up with. As a triathlete friend of mine said "Hard work fosters good friendships".

Guys are good friends. And one of my greatest priorities upon returning for holidays was to go to the gym and work out with my buddy that I grew up with in high school, believe it or not. You may not understand this strong bond I have for my mates, heck, I get ridiculed for it all the time. People often confuse sincere friendships with homosexuality. Obviously not very big fans of Boston Legal.

They don't come with ***** though, and that is an extremely good thing. Like I said, ***** makes for headache, and headache I do not need in my friendships.
