Does desperation for a mate leads you to find heart break?

It used to. In the last 10 years I've dated 50 something women. Around September 2006, I decided to swear off dating for awhile. Haven't dated since, and I feel a hell of a lot better without some girl stomping my heart every few months. It's good to take some time to get to know yourself instead of just flinging yourself into relationship after relationship, otherwise you just wind up being what everyone else wants you to be.
