I'm glad that your life is so full b/c it does keep one's mind from just dwelling on their personal stitch all the time. You know, if he has slowed down with the women and bar scene (and I don't know that he has.....just wondering) then it won't be long until he is going to start feeling the lonliness. I think you are on him mind a lot more than he would admit to anyone, most of all......himself.
Do good on your test and let us know when it's all over and how your aced it.

It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
