I like to think of myself as a "long term winner."
I don't jump into sex and trying to look and cool and macho. I don't put on poses or tell a girl what I don't believe is the truth. In the short term, it means that I won't get laid in college. In the long term, it means my wife will have a better idea of who I am when she marries me and will accept it. Which leads to a happier marriage (with happy kids who are likely to survive better etc.).
I also study a lot rather than socialize. This means I'll be better educated later on, earn more money and be happier with my job.
So you see, some might consider me to be a loser right now. But in the long term, I'll have the last laugh.
At least that's what I tell myself when I realize how little of a life I have.
