Is it true that you are unable to date or give time to the romantic side once you start a start-up?

You will find me stupid when I say this but I was almost depressed over this that I won’t be able to date attractive girls because I would be so busy with work.
Complete bullshit.

It clearly says in The Book, 2nd page, 3rd paragraph that it is illegal to date when you are running a startup.
I wouldn’t mess with it.

If it’s a long term relationship where they take care of you and support you (Check Alex Hormozi relationship as an example) then yes if it’s to fool around then it’s not worth it and you will be wasting valuable time which you could of spent focusing on the startup. Similar to how @Hoppa said it for that part I wouldn’t mess with it. Source - I’ve been option 2 now I’m working towards doing option 1. Also source - I’m part of a startup.
Whether you’re broke or employed, an entrepreneur or working for someone else or anything in between, if you want to make time for a romantic relationship, you will.
Be actually more concerned about finding the right relationship with the right person than anything else.
Entrepreneurship is a lot of work for sure but no entrepreneur works harder or more than a single parent with two kids, working two or three jobs to make ends meet. That’s the type of person who could be too busy to date. Not startup founders. With all the tools available, the knowledge that we now have in entrepreneurship, the mentorships and books, if you’re overworked while launching a startup, you’re doing something wrong. I know someone who runs 4 businesses, has a podcast, is married and has two children and still finds time to be a great wife and mother!
Those “I’m too busy with my startup” myths are bullshit! Just be a highly organized person.

Good good 
I think we have similar viewpoint. Like if it’s a long term romantic relationship they yes you can find time while working on a startup. If it’s to hook up and fool around it’s possible but not worth it when you can spend that valuable time working on your startup instead. Do you agree?

That means I won’t ever be able to run WB after a start-up ? 
Also a few good examples of what I mean with long term romantic relationship:
Alex Hormozi and his wife
Grant Cardon and his wife
Jeff Bezos (was in long term relationships)
Elon Musk (was in long term relationships)
Luke Alexander (when he was in a long term relationship)
Arlin Moore and his girlfriend
And many more I just don’t remember them all.
Depends on what your startup is. Is it like Tinder or a dating relate startup? Then maybe
If it’s like a fintech. I wouldn’t recommend it and would say it’s a not a good idea but others might disagree.
Your better off with Stark + Nouveau RICH + Index Gate: UPX in that case.
Everyone successful startup founder I’ve met. Hasn’t fooled around since starting the startup. They have a long term relationship with someone who cares about them and supports them which helps them make the startup even more successful or their single until they meet the right match.
Startup world is a different game. Your either in it to win it no matter what the stakes are or your there for the wrong reasons.
Of course you can.
I assume you are an adult.
You can choose to do whatever you want. Just know that you will have to deal with the consequences.

If chasing 
is still that high of a priority to you, then now might not be the right time for entrepreneurship. I’m not talking about time management, I’m talking about attention management. Maybe take a year or two to run WB, do what you want to do and when you’ve figured out that sleeping around is a waste of time anyway, then launch your startup.

Define “startup.”
Chances are you actually mean a “small business” or an “online business.”
Yes a business in its infant stage
