I spend most of my time focusing on building my internet business. I figure if I become rich the women will be flocking to me. Until then, I choose to remain single and avoid emotional attachments for the reasons above.
Anybody else feel the same way? Or am I as crazy as many make me out to be?  |
I think you're going to continue to have problems until you learn how to invest in a relationship. It's not unlike investing in stocks; you don't put everything you've got into one until you've found a consistent performer. So dating doesn't mean you have to dump all your emotional equity into women. You develop the relationship over time and invest more as time goes on.
Relationships are only high risk if you don't control yourself and work through everything slowly.
Second, you can't be lazy in a relationship. If they're too much work and you just want women to flock to you, you'll have nothing but problems. Which ties into what I was saying above. You don't expect stocks to come running to you, why expect it out of an actual, living person? You have to research (through dating) and invest wisely. It's work, but the rewards, if handled properly, are waaaay higher than the investment you'll put in.
