Mixed review:
Falling in love feels AMAZING to me. I am a bubbling cauldron of joy when I am in love.
Getting your heart broken is absolute shite. Leaves me pretty thoroughly dysfunctional for a while.
Digging the dudes is fine and all, but it is more efficient if you are female while you are doing so. A dude digging a dude leads to social complications (like trying to determine if he also digs dudes).

Hence, the 'Emotional Roller-coaster" that you hear so much about.dietpeachsnapple said:
I hate that fucking coaster. It's old, rickety and full of people expecting you to say 'I love you.'
Also, it sometimes smells like pee.
It depends on how much effort you have to put into it. There's always going to be some effort involved, that comes with any social interaction. Do you need to put up with a demanding b*tch? No.

Having gone through the whole high maint rim-roll ,and then actually finally fetched up with a normal human as a partner, and not some self absorbed pseudo child. Yeah lots of pros, not many cons.
I'm not gonna tell you your relationship is odd, but it sounds like I have a closer connection to my car than you do to your man.Red Bomb said:
Back to the topic. Finding a partner who you care about and, this is important, cares equally about you, is better than being an astronaut-rockstar-racecar driver. This sounds silly, I know. I used to think so too. Then it happened to me: I met her. When she looks at me it's as though there is no one else in the room. That is the greatest feeling in the world.
There are some bumps along the way, but (we are on a gaming forum) it would be like not playing the greatest game of all time because you don't like the font in the menu. When it's the right person, the bumps are so minor.
Love is like a lottery. You just have to keep buying tickets until you win. Sorta.
Unfortunately most tickets suck hard. In the bad way.
Girlfriends are worth it, but mostly for a short time.

While I'm not going to vote as I don't really see merit in any of the options provided, I will say that it doesn't really seem like you are interested in a relationship to begin with. Relationships are about much more than nagging, annoying talks and sex. Going into a relationship with that sort of mindset, well, isn't going to get you into a relationship in the first place.
wow no gay jokes, surprising
OP:and depends what sort of girl you end up with, may be worth the effort, may not, depends how well suited you two are for each other

Yes, it is worth the efford.
A good relationship doesn't just happen, you have to work for it. When you're in a nagging relationship, where she is demaning everything try to change it. Perhaps with a bit of work you can make it into the best relation evar.
So, yeah. First sentence.

If you have to ask, then: no.
Either you want to put in the work to maintain a relationship, or you don't.
"Are girls worth it?" on a gamer forum with predominately adolescent boys who've barely had gfs is NOT the route you should be taking when seeking advice. If you don't have people offline with whom you can discuss personal aspects of your life, you really need to go find some you CAN talk to.
Personally, I <3 my gf. While I certainly enjoy my independence and quiet time, my life is richer for having her.
