Regular sex or high quality sex?

Well, I'm 16 so I'm not in the best position to give advice on this matter, but if I were you, I'd only approach high quality women that are up to my standards, or in short wife material. I wouldn't even waste my time with anything else.

 

No, it's not a waste of time, but I don't think it's very nice. People don't like being used. If a woman told me that the only reason she was having sex with me was for "practice" for the guy that she really wants to be with, then I would tell her to take a hike! I don't want someone to spend time with me (especially if we're doing something intimate and vulnerable like having sex) just because they see me as a stepping stone to get to where they really want to be.

I would be really hurt if I was having sex with a woman and I asked her how she felt about me and she said "I think you're attractive, but you're not the man of my dreams, which is what I'm really looking for..."

If you're really looking for the woman of your dreams, my advice is to just focus on yourself. You mentioned you wanted to be a great artist. If I were you, I would pursue that instead of pursuing women you don't really care about or want to be with in the long term. If you focus on doing what you love, you'll have everything you need in life. I'm not saying that focusing on your art will bring your "dream woman" into your life. I'm just saying that, if you focus on your art, you won't need your "dream woman" to be happy.
