There is a lot to be said about this, I'm just not sure how to say it... nicely. I've never met you, so for all I know you could look good enough to be on a magazine cover. However, chances are that you're not perfect looking. So why hold out for the perfect looking super-model girl? Those types of women are often ignorant and self centered because their looks compensate for areas the brain would usually have a great dealing. I know that if I go for someone "in my league" they are going to think on the same page as I, because they've been through similar experiences. If it looks too good to be true... You see, instantly you changed yourself. NO. Don't do that. Yes, you should change things up a little bit to make time for the other half. However it shouldn't be significant. You need that time in the shop for yourself, because its what you're used to and it gives you time away from her. No two people can spend 100% of their time together without tearing each other apart. Everyone needs time apart, cuz absence makes the heart grow fonder. Also, why wait til spring? Its something that you love to do, plus it will keep you busy and help distance yourself from the relationship. Seriously, start loving those Stangs now if you really want to pull yourself out of this.
