temporarily without a license as well, i know that it can seriously undermine your confidence and aplomb. you could turn it to your advantage and cultivate the image of a rakish troublemaker who plays by nobody's rules but his own, or you could push it out of your mind as hard as you can and laugh it off if it ever comes up.

nobody will care if you can drive or not if they already like you. would you turn down a girl for being in your position, if you were otherwise into the girl?

unfortunately, i suspect the chink in your armour is not lack of a license, but the fact that you and your five-year-girlfriend just broke up. which totally sucks. and that suckage will manifest in all sorts of ways, too. this is just one way in which your mind is allocating blame for your lost mojo.
