Go see the musical Chess which is playing at the Exhibition Centre in Melbourne at the moment. You love chess. Girls love musicals. PERFECT!
But in all seriousness. I've only ever had one girlfriend because I myself have never LOOKED for a relationship. I never minded being single because I, like most people, am a little bit strange and didn't feel compatible with. My first relationship was with a girl who was my friend first, and it was because she was just a little bit strange too that I felt we were compatible. We were together all of Year 12, and I highly doubt it affected my grades at all. If you find someone in Year 12, take that opportunity because you may regret it for the rest of your life if you don't.
Unfortunately, as is life, we have gone our separate ways, but I have not found anybody else who I'd feel comfortable in a relationship with. I have not found anybody who I have had remote interest in establishing a relationship with... and I associate with a lot of females seeing as I'm doing Arts at Deakin! (Plus I also do amateur theatre which helps). Just wait; you'll find a person you're compatible with, trust me!
