If your organizing adventure is almost anything else (like making money, pursuing a profession, becoming a celebrity, etc.), you have to figure out for yourself where you rank the adventures of your life that necessarily involve a woman and how -- if at all -- you can fit them together with your more important pursuits.
Nobody can do that work for you or give you any specific advice that's worth bothering with, although a good psychotherapist could guide you through the process, if you need help.

Welcome, liberalpro. Great first post, and thank you for giving me the name "organising adventure" for a concept I have long known of, but which was nameless until now.
