Relationships, women and love

Well for all the things which I have written, it has been all about love, romance and relationship. What does it comes to? All talk and no action to be taken....why? To have a relationship, it requires costs and money....its the truth though many would disagree.
I have a friend who had always say that he is worst off than me, although the truth is that he is like on seventh heaven which he never knew. Maybe after all that's been written here, I do hope I could shed him some light and stop feeling sorry for himself because I don't and I never let it bring me down for that fact.
Maybe I would break it down to several areas so that it looks for more focused.

1. Career.
I have spent a large number of years in the automotive industry after graduating from Polytechnic and leaving the Armed Forces. I have worked from a mechanic to a service advisor, from Technical Officer to Project Engineer, to becoming a Technical Executive to lastly an Assistant Service Manager in a MNC. Those years where I have to really work very hard to really get to what and where I am then. Today, I am into after-market Sales/Marketing and Technical Support, though I don't really make the big bucks but least I earn for everything I have.
My dear friend, is a Director of his father's company, have all the perks but of course, the thing which is disadvantage to him as compared to me, is that he may or may not survive the 'changes' in the industry on his own. The things he has such as car and etc....are all from expenses of the company and all he makes goes into his expenditure. Thus, in a matter of speaking, he would be materially more wealthier than I do but I have preserverence and experience in the industry which he does not have.

2. Love and Marriage.
I guess we are both pretty even in this aspect as we both have experience a failed marriage with no kids. But the only thing which my dear friend would not admit is that he had 2 flings after as compared to me, which I had none. I have never blamed anyone for not being able to have flings after my marriage failed. The reason being that I do not have the time to have another relationship and that I also cannot afford ONE at all, and even today. Unlike my friend, who can go holiday with his flings and etc... Isn't it true? That if a guy can afford some extra cash on hand, he could or he may go out and seek happiness or seek comfort in women. What about those who cannot afford? Well, my answer to that is ..... do not think about it? do not even wanna flaunt it at all?

In reality, if one wanna be successful about his own life....is all about making good what he has.

In this I hope my friend would understand what I am trying to say, do not feel inferior to people who has nothing that you have or had.
