welcome to WP
you bring a lot to the forum, man. great to have you here.
when I obsess about dating/career/other NT priorities, I think your gf is the meaning of your life and that I am missing out by never having had the experience of dating and start to feel bad about myself. actually, though, Noam Chomsky says that one should live a "meaningful and constructive life" and one should rebel against "the new spirit of the age - gain wealth forgetting all but self."
