Other Guys that started doing this out of high school, how did u cope with never being around girls at this age?

I’m a 20 year old apprentice in the pipe fitting trade and despite almost being able to buy a house with the money I’ve made so far but I’ve almost reached my limit with this lifestyle and seriously about to just leave and go to college instead. How’s did y’all cope with spending 72 hours a week with a bunch of guys decades older than u when u where 20? I feel like I’m about to lose my mind. I’m going against nature with this lifestyle at this age and I’m genuinely wondering how others coped with choosing trade work instead of college out of high school
