I've dated a few girls since then but all of them have either cheated on me, so the relationship would end, or they'd do something to fuck me over, which would also end the relationship. There are some pretty despicable people out there.
I think if you can emotionally distance yourself from people and not allow yourself to fall in love, it makes it easier to accomplish all the other things you want to because you then have the freedom to expend all of your money and resources solely on yourself. But it's embedded into our DNA to want to find that emotional connection. So, I don't know. Just try to find someone that you reckon you can trust, I guess.
