So I just moved out into the world after having three years of success. The major agreement that i made with myself was that i would continue with the same recipe that created my recent success. No major job changes, no complications from women, and limited drinking/weekends. Well its been a week, i moved in with two women, they have stopped speaking to one another, i woke up this morning with two empty bottles of wine and evidence that one had spent the night in my room, and in two days i have an interview for a position with more money/ possibly more responsibilities that i want/could handle. does this not sound like a recipe for disaster? I could potentially take a new job leading to potential failure, cause a rift between two roommates that had previously lived in harmony, break one or both hearts, end up getting kicked out of the house. this current trend could leave me jobless and homeless, so what do you make of that?

Go with it. Enjoy it. Live it. Life is too short. Go for it.

You're missing something here.... Success is something that comes from within and with balance in your life. Provided you don't allow the personal items to overshadow the professional ambitions, you'll be OK.
Concerning the job.... we all rise to the highest level of our incompetence, or so the saying goes. Taking risks is a part of that. You can sit there, not change jobs, justify it by saying "it isn't within your recipe" , and go nowhere in life. Or, you can challenge yourself to rise to a higher level. Live in fear of failure, or live life to it's fullest extent and push yourself.
With the roommates.... set some ground rules here concerning relationships, sex, etc with them. This needs to be a "group" discussion. You're all adults and should behave in that manner. If someone can't, they should move out so they don't disrupt the lives of the other two.
No guts, no glory my friend. Think about what the best thing is for you, and follow up. Don't live your life in fear, you'll miss out on some experiences that will allow you to grow as an individual.
Good luck.

LOL...I think you need to find other ways to experience excitement in your life rather than putting yourself in situations that can have long-term adverse effects.
1. Lay off the hooch...for cripe's sakes, for all you know, the one who spent the night with you could be pregnant - THEN what would you do?
2. In any house, there is room for only one queen...especially if the male species is involved. Your being there is not good (not for them, not for you)...look around for a one-bedroom and get out!
3. Don't take the new job unless you are prepared for the responsibility.

hmmm well it seems like you are stuck between a rock and a hard place. The first thing i would do is find out who you did what with and sit down with them and talk about it. As far as the job goes its always good to advance so take a chance.. If you know you can handle it then go for it. IF yuo get kicked out they have to give you 30 days and you can get your own place by then. Take everything one day at a time..... Good luck.

First this question doesn't really belong here and its more of a statement than a question second if your going to let drinking and women ruin a chance at a good job instead of dealing with your problems like an adult than your too immature to have it anyways.

Get your own place or a place wth other guy friends. You have come too far to give it all up over two women.

You need to set your priorities and leave your roommates alone...let them know where you stand and let them deal with it but DO NOT get involved with either one of them. Seek female companionship elsewhere.

Your one lucky man living the dream. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, have no remorse, do what u think is right. Threesome in my opinion is the way 2 go.

Clearly you are on the way to becoming a drunken hobo.
