You sound like a young Patrick Bateman.

Dude you're gonna be a handsome ass motherfucker, and all the other guys are gonna have acne and be fat.

As long as it doesn't interfere with your daily life like locigalmisologist said, then don't worry. Plus women do love a well groomed man.

It just seems like you're fastidious. If you find that your behaviors are significantly interfering with your life, then it would be time to worry that you have developed unhealthy compulsions.

Nope, women love a well groomed man

I'm a little weirded out.

Or jealous, not sure which.

Props buddy! You understand the value of having good physique and grooming habits.

brushing you teeth totally weirds out the ladies

As long as you enjoy doing all of this, you're fine.

Good shit on the dedication to P90x.

As a woman... OH MY GOD NOTHING SEXIER THAN A MAN WITH GOOD BREATH! My first kiss tasted like day old nachos, my friend, you are WAY above the curve.

Perhaps you spend a little too much time on appearance and not enough on your mind, but as long as it don't have a major impact on the way you live life I would say no. In fact, my daily routine likely takes significantly more time than your does and so far it has only been a major positive. I would think the only people calling your routine high maintenance would be those who are unwilling to dedicate enough time to properly care for themselves.

As for routine you are not alone. Compared yours seems rather bland, and I wouldn't view myself as high maintenance, it is that I know what I like doing and so I do that. I have maintained relationships, have one night stands, and traveled with my routines, so I know that in no way are they limiting.

Fuck social normal they keep you in places you dont want to be, because of being scared of what others will think.

My routine is as follows

Twice a day:

Brush with mouthwash

Oil removing face pads

Once a day:

Floss

Take note of the critical task to accomplish in the morning

Take a walk at night

Contact a friend that I haven't spoken with in a long time and want to

Meditate

Read

Learn

Do a daily wrap up and record what happened during the day

Other:

Gym 4-6 days a week dependent upon how my muscles feel

Now that is just a partial list. You are not alone. There are others who do the same as you. If you are following your routine for your own good, keep it up. If you are following it because you feel you must, rethink it.

Forget what others think do what you feel is right.

Does the pore cleanser get rid of oil? I think that's the problem with my face. I have less pimples tho just the oil is the problem. When someone snaps a pic of me and it has a flash on, they'll reflect my forehead hhahaha

Do you think you are too high maintenance?
Does it negatively interfere with your life in any way?
Are you happy with your current routine, or do you feel like you are wasting time/money/energy being concerned about these things?

If the answer to all of these questions is "no" then you're fine.

I remember when I was 15, my routine took quite some time as well. At the time I loved it - when I was done doing everything I felt like a million bucks and I looked and felt great. Nothing wrong with it at all.

For me things are much, much simpler now and I'm happy with it, but it's all a matter of personal preference.

I'll let you in on a little secret: Women LOVE a man who takes care of himself. You've got a great routine, keep it up!
