Honestly? I wouldn't get too bent out of shape about it. At 21, I had my nose in a textbook or working at one of several jobs for what seemed like 26 hours a day, and somehow among the chaos and the stress, I managed to find love (err, love found me).
If I have any tips it's these: be the person you want to be (physically, mentally, and if you so believe, spiritually), set realistic goals and work hard to achieve them, try to eat right, exercise, and get 8 hours of sleep, and honesty is usually a good way to go, especially with yourself. Otherwise, just be open and don't be too afraid of taking risks. Getting shot down a few times is totally worth the times you're not shot down.
