Tips on balancing scaling a business & dating?

Looking for advice from the more grown fellas on here.

Does anybody have any advice on how to properly balance scaling a business vs dating? Used to spend a lot of time messing with women in my early/mid 20s, but about a year ago, things in life changed and I completely switched my focus to entrepreneurship. Things have been fantastic in that sense. Making more money than I ever have, love what I do everyday, and love the control I have over my life. That said, I haven't been putting that much time into women. Have had a couple around that I put 0 effort into (they really choose me), but I obviously am not in it with them, nor look at them as somebody I'd like to be publicly associated with. Not in a they're ugly sense, but just I know how my history and know I can/should do better. I'm confident that if I put effort into that side of my life, I'll succeed, but with the success of my business and the nonstop nature of being my own boss/scaling, I obviously prioritize that, which leads to me not fulfilling the side of life with women. For example, though rusty, I'm definitely not scared/intimidated by women, but I'm never at bars/rarely at social events to even be in a position to make moves because I'm typically at home/out of town working. I'm not even worried about the spending part. To me, I see it as me spending time with somebody who can't provide real benefits to my business/my life financially. On a deeper level, at this point, I've kind of lost respect for a lot of women as so many get by on little qualities other than sexuality, and don't know what it's like to really work/earn something completely independently (i.e. run a business). That thought is in my head whenever I meet a pretty girl, and it just turns me off.

I'm conscious enough to know that there's something I could be doing wrong, so would appreciate any constructive criticism w/ respect to my POV and how I could be at fault w/ how I view things.

Overall, I'm not anxious about the priorities I've chosen per say, but just wanting to get back in the game without losing any momentum in business.

Thoughts?

Consider investing into a reliable ready reference you can pick up and study to better prepare yourself for engaging the opposite sex. I'd suggest that you get yourself a copy of Doc Love's "The System: The Dating Dictionary". Doc Love, who until his passing was also known as Tom Hodges, wrote a weekly advice column that's archive is mirrored on several mens focused sites and a podcast. His media is a bit pricey, but it's a solid foundation a guy can branch out from in RP aware circles. I'd suggest you review his advice column to decide if his view on dating and relationships is aligned with what you aspire for yourself. To save yourself a search, give this scribed link a gander to find out if his #book is something you'd like to add to your library. It should also be available on libgen.

If you meant me in particular, I had other shit going on

Well, since coming back online, you've had ample time to address your extreme reaction to a breaking news story based on zero facts.

Bro. You were ready to join a mob and unleash Krystalnacht on everyone and everything slightly left of extreme right. You attacked me personally when all I said on the matter was wait till actual facts about the shooting emerge, and quoted Kirk's own words.

Now? Radio fucking silence about all that shit you said, and made a second post in reply to your own post to pile more on.

If you meant the Right as a whole, most Right-Wing YouTube channels never went quiet for more than the owner had to sleep.

Same treatment personally from another mostly right dominated industry forum I've been a member of for literally 2 decades. As for right wing commenters on Youtube et al, they are not only still grasping at straws trying to blame this on "Leftist radicals corrupting the poor impressionable boy" despite it emerging that he was likely farther right than Kirk himself, and elevating Kirk to a holy martyr status at the National Level, with his corpse flown on Air Force Two like he was an elder statesman, not an "influencer" that large numbers of people IN the US and most people keenly engaged in politics never even heard of before the shooting.

You, of all people, in all online communities- I hold you to a higher standard, like a friend who speaks up when his buddy is going off track. How does your behavior, then and now, track with what Redpillschool said about recognizing when you are being manipulated to feel a certain way for the interests of others?

This Asshole Design phone again. When typing, the Enter Post dialog box shows one line which disappears under the page content as you type, and the interface to move the view up or down, much less try to select text, acts completely nonlinear, scrolling the one visible line to the top of the content then back to the bottom with everything hidden again with a 0.01% sweet spot to only move one line or character at a time then fucking stay there.
