    Little back story. I started hitting the gym about 3 months ago and was doing great. Then I had to stop so my shoulder could heal up cause I thought I could lift more than I actually could. So on my break I started trying to date a little. So far I got stood up 3 times and met one person that wasn't really interested. I have been back in the gym for about 3 weeks now but I have missed a couple workouts because of "dates" that never showed up. So my question is should I just embrace being single and focus on the gym or should I try to keep dating and miss workouts from time to time?
    Priorities need to be n order... If u build it they will come...

    Dude, I am also going to be blunt. Many guys think that if they work out and are in top shape, then their dating life will be great. Actually, it helps but only little. The best way to bag a classy lady is by your vibrant personality and ability to maintain a lively conversation.

    Gym is important, but your personality draws the women more than the guns. You should not take a break. Just keep dating.

    Amen

    One will give you hope, love, peace and a feeling of wholeness. The other will bring you pain.

    Go to the gym

    Life is too short.... Personally, when I'm on my death bed, I'm not going to think back to all the wonderful gym time I put in. I'm into fitness bc it helps me live my best life. I don't let fitness get in the way of me living my life.

    So, I'm team... date.

    Been studying people and relationship stuff a long time and i get advice myself over the years if i require it for some of the top people in this field in the world . Im going to do it myself someday as a job i enjoy it so much .
    Never ever leave plans up in the air because unless she is super interested in you from day one , she will flake and not turn up . So always set a definite place , definite day , definite time to meet up . Did i say DEFINiTE , yes i did , because that is the key to successful dating .
    If you do all this and she does not turn up , never text or call her again , because quite simply she does not value your time and wont even make the effort to turn up or she might cancel last minute with some lame excuse . Value yourself as a man and don't ever put up with this . I have helped lots of guys with this exact problem you are facing . Only date women that are enthusiastic and have a good attitude .
    In the meantime get about your gym work and enjoy yourself and do things you like to do that make you happy .
