'Get a Girlfriend' isn't as easy as it sounds for everyone. I'd say get a dog to start with. I got a dog last September and I can't imagine getting rid of him now. It just makes life more worth living. You wake up in the morning a bit happier because your dog is smiling and wagging his tail for you to go make him food. And it gets you outside more because he has to be walked 3+ times a day which helps give you a break from work. Edit: My dog was laying in the sun and got too warm so he walked right in front of me and just flopped over.

I took care of my landlord's dog for a month while she was out of town, and on top of everything you've said, I found that it made me a much more effective person. When you gotta walk the dog, you have to walk the dog - no ifs and buts around it, and it got me a lot more focused on what I should be doing instead of dicking around the internet all day, too lazy to do something productive.

Often getting a dog leads to getting a girlfriend, since you'll be outside more and have an instant conversation starter.

  I thought about starting a puppy rental business for college campuses. I imagine you could charge over $100 per hour b/c of all the girls who would flock to pet the puppy and then happen to think "wow what a nice guy".

    It's a good idea, I wouldn't try and do it on college campuses, though. You can lose some serious coin trying to sell good but expensive things to broke kids.

  Many girls also love dogs and, by extension, guys who have dogs. I saw this a lot in college, where guy with dog = instacrush by half the females in the vicinity. Alas, I'm allergic. To dogs, not girls, though given my luck with the latter, maybe it's both.
