Casually, it seems perfectly reasonable; but I doubt it's sustainable if you want to form a serious emotional bond. I felt lucky to be dating one person for most of my life so I can't speak from experience.
I am efficient, certainly. But the heavy need for "me" time (because I'm one of those sorts of people--then again, in at least the video game aspect, in some ways I expect you are as well) makes it all very difficult. Although two with emotional bonds seems to be going reasonably well.
This may sort itself out anyway: the newest just told me she's moving to Philly in July.
Which means: Hey! We have our long-distance affair, folks! Unless, of course, you were suggesting something personal with the above comment, in which case we may have two. *eyebrow waggle*
Your point about the "me" time is well taken, though; and unless you expect your lifestyle to change in a way that frees up time, the frustration you feel will likely get worse. The situation might resolve itself, though, if/when some another party decides they are dissatisfied.
From my personal vantage point, it might be worth the hassle to enjoy it while it lasts. Despite my freedom "on paper," I find that-- in practice-- I don't have and miss the absolute freedom to date around. (Not that I'd make the trade, obviously, but I wish I'd taken more advantage of it when I had it.) You could look back on these days wistfully. On the other hand, it might go differently for you, so take that advice with a grain of salt.
Incidentally, even without video games, I need the same exorbitant amounts of "me" time. I just end up spending it reading, or writing, or drinking and listening to music, or...
