Does anyone else live their life like this?

Serious question, I seem to be completely incapable of finding a balance between my work life and my relationships. Relationships are just so time consuming, and I'm still rather young, so I focus on progressing myself in my career. The strange thing is I don't feel lonely or lacking in any way, although I feel that as I mature things will change in that regard...

both my GF and I work a LOT of hours, but we've been together so long that we don't need 5 hour dates on Wednesday nights to explore each other's souls. At this point, it is FAR easier than being single ... I'll do laundry while she goes to the market, I'll cook when she can't, and she'll cook when I can't - the list can go on and on. But, she is actually a catch in terms of not needing constant attention and is also driven to her profession and takes pride in her career. For me, it's ideal.

So you're going to ignore the fact that your younger years are your best in terms of looks, health and sex drive all for some money. And then when you actually have enough money to do something you're going to be a crusty old fuck who needs Metamucil to get around and Viagra to get a hard on and Polydent to keep your dentures from flopping about. Cool.

Cool.

I place career/money over relationships right now, but it's not like you can't have both. You just really need to work at it, especially in high-stress, high-workload, long-hours jobs. A good compromise is to live with a girl. Assuming you're ready for that step. You kind of get the best of all worlds: time at your job to do the job right, but all the sex and fun when you get home. You're seeing each other every day, and as an added plus, you're usually only seeing each other during the best parts of the day, e.g., night sex and early morning sex.

The OP's lifestyle is fine. Acquiring currency at a young age pays off with relationships later on in life.

If you get into a relationship while young you will regret it because relationships are soul-crushing life-draining situations. She'll go off the pill and get pregnant and hold you up for cash for the abortion, and even though it's like 5 times as much as they really charge you'll pay it because the last thing you need is to have to support a child on your shitty 35k a year salary. Then even after you get a vasectomy to ensure nothing like that can happen again she'll just cheat on you with that large black man who she trains with at the gym and wind up giving you genital herpes before getting drunk one night and smashing your signed LP of Beck's Odelay.

At least, that's one possibility.
