Why is it great to be single? All my friends around me are having girlfriends, and I sometimes feel lonely. However, I don't feel ready or good enough for a relationship because I'm a chronic procrastinator, and it has negatively affected my mental and physical health. Despite this, I'm still able to work out, which is why I'm fit and appealing to some girls. I feel like my procrastination and anxiety about the important things I should be doing are in the way of having a good relationship. Additionally, because of my procrastination, I have many health issues that prevent me from doing the sports I want, making me really unhappy. I also struggle with coping mechanisms like porn and masturbation. I want you to motivate me but also keep things realistic. Am I ready for a relationship after sharing all my fears?
