Wow, a lot of fail in this thread. The point of the thread is that the game doesn't end when you get in a relationship. If I broke up with my girlfriend today, there are no less than 4 plates I could have in a week. If I wanted to go after her friends, I'm sure some of them would be all for it with the way she is raving about me right now. The point is if you keep improving, you should not have a long dry spell. Trying to find a worthy LTR is another matter, but in that situation the LTR you have sucks anyway. If you're that worried about a dry spell, line up some new plates before you break it off.
