How much energy should I put into finding a woman?

[Telekinetic-Potato]

When I was 20, I had two things on my mind: Filmmaking and woman.

Then as I got better at getting laid, I got distracted and made some bad decisions.

I've been focusing on my career again and I love the focus I've been able to enjoy as a result but I want to have a family one day and I think not having a good woman around me in a long time has taken an unexpected toll mentally.

My lifestyle isn't exactly fair to a woman but I'm 27 and starting to feel a little short on time. I want to be alive to meet my great grandkids 😂

At the same time as someone who's always busy, I'm not really sure what I have to offer.

Here's what I think man, at 27 you definitely wanna start thinking more long term. But don't stress too hard, you still got time.

My advice would be don't force it, but keep your eyes open when you're out and about. When a cool girl catches your attention, muster up the guts to say hi.

As for what you bring to the table - you got your shit together career wise, that counts for a lot. Plus I'm sure you got other qualities too that will attract someone right for you.

I'd say focus on your work some like you've been doing, but block out one night a week to do something social where you might meet people. Take it slow, get to know some girls as friends first before looking for more, so it's lower pressure.

You seem like a driven dude following your passion, I'm sure you'll find a girl can appreciate that about you if you put yourself out there some without stressing about it too much. Just be open when opportunities come up. You got this man!

Remember, life is what you make of it.

Focus on doing what you love and living your life. It's a cliche answer but it works, it's a great experience to meet someone through mutual interests, and it allows you to accurately gauge if it's the right time to get more serious.
