Re: having a life?
Well,
To solve the possibilities of this problem, follow a simple method to retain that significant other:
1) DON'T FORGET HER/HIM!! Worst possible thing you can do, for if you keep a good contact going with them, you will both be happier.
2) Take a night off a week. This goes two fold, firstly it keeps them knowing you are still there and secondly, it gets you out of the pit and into the real world.
3) Eliminate other distractions. During the off season, you may play video games, go to the movies every night or some other activity. Remove it from your schedule if at all possible. For me, it was my lame job selling chicken.
4) Try and bring them into the shop one night. They will either see how great FIRST is and join up or they will notice how much you work and give you a new found respect. Win win.
Remember, FIRST is a great opportunity that will get you ahead in the long run but don't forget about the short run either.

Darn, I got into this for the battles!
