its supposed to help in muscle recovery ( post-workout ) but its effects are a bit overrated.

No. Glutamine is a waste of money. The majority of it does not survive the gut, anyways.
Investing in some BCAA's would be a better choice.

The studies would indicate that glutamine is ineffectual for the purposes we require but anecdotal evidence would seem to oppose this. Too many guys use it and get good results. Myself included. The choice is yours but I try to use it as much as possible.
Benefits are said to include:
Raised GH output, enhanced immune system function, lowering of cortisol, increase in protein synthesis, decrease in protein breakdown, speeding up of glycogen storage and cell volumization.
If it only does some of the above to a limited extent then that is enough for me. I mainly notice an increase in condtion with no drop in bodyweight (GH increase possibly?), i.e. an increase in LBM.
Dose needs to be high to get the most out of it though - 20g plus per day in my view. Also it needs to be taken on an empty stomach if in the L-form (as opposed to peptides which are better if you can get them). Best taken first thing in the morning before anything else, before and after a workout and last thing at night.

Tell her a little about yourself, but not too much. Maintain some mystery. Give her something to think about and wonder about when she's at home.

I was skeptical before I started taking it, but after about a month I realized I was making gains faster than I had been before. It could be psychological, but I don't really give a **** if it is - It's working for me.
I've heard about half the people who take it see results, but I haven't seen any research backing that up.
