I had a blast in my dating years. A few ups and downs to be sure, but for the most part I met some great women and had a lot of fun.
I think too many people set too high expectations of each other and that's what complicates things.
Just ****ing enjoy what you have whilst you do. Once the right one comes along you will know it.
However if my daughter ever starts dating anyone like I used to be, he's a dead man.
