Great update, and generally amazing progress. Moustache is really amazing. As for your thought process, you're right. You are your own worst critic. The friends and people around you stop noticing things after first time. They'll say once bnad compliment once, or maybe twice, and that's it.. People stopped paying attention. And it's amazing to have girlfriend that you have by your side. It would be a way harder if she wasn't by your side.
Also, let us know how it went at poker night.
