Brahmabull, your sister reminds me a little of my cousin who is stunning with her Italian/English/Mexican heritage. But like your sister, there are going to be guys who think "meh, she's alright but I've seen better" for no other reason than they prefer something different. That's the beauty of this-we aren't all attracted to the same thing.
Your picture isn't in your profile so I don't know for sure what you look like. Yeah, Mario Lopez is a good looking guy with those dimples but he also reminds me of one of my cousins (from the other side of the family-I have some really good looking cousins) so dating someone who looked like that would be a bit creepy. Plus, while I appreciate the effort that goes into 6-pack abs, I like someone a little softer. So while you might be attractive, chances are you would be someone I'm not attracted to, if that makes sense.
It's all good. I'm just looking for a girl who is similar to myself
Unfortunately almost every guy online thinks he deserves a hottie, even guys lacking in hotness. Then they wonder why they are single years later and no women want them.
I know, huh? People sometimes seem to ask more than what they can offer. Guys thinking they deserve a hottie or girls who think they deserve a rich man.

Very true and this is something we all forget. The fact is not all of us will be attracted to the same people and many of us aren't attracted to people considered handsome or beautiful. I don't find Brad Pitt appealing and several male friends didn't find Pamela Anderson hot either.
My brother, who is 29, has forever complained that he cannot meet eligible women. He has the type of job where he does not work with any eligible women. He doesn't particularly like to go to singles bars, and he isn't much of a church-goer, so I can see where the possibilities do get pretty thin. Not long ago he told me that he could go a month without even speaking to a single woman between the ages of 20-35. I think it might actually take a concerted effort for some guys to find single women, depending on their circumstances. Online dating exists for a reason.
It's not that difficult. None of the guys and women I knew in my 20's went to bars or to church. They all found a partner, at least for shorter-term. There are weekend sports groups, soccer leagues, hiking groups, that cater to singles. There are political action groups that draw young singles. There are gyms with special classes, there are community-based or university-based adult education programs that are cheap. There are endless possibilities, unless someone lives in a rural area. If he's not meeting women, he's not trying.
If this has already been done to death, please accept my apologies.
I hear men complain a lot about how they cannot find anyone to date. I have a feeling this may be because they are focused on a very narrow spectrum of women. Basically, a lot of these men will only consider women who are extremely good-looking. They often look right past the women they know who are charming, funny, warm, sweet and interesting, but more ordinary looking. Is this often the case?

I think if a guy is uninterested in those types of activities, if a person is more into solitary activities, then I believe that it does come down to what I referred to as a "concerted effort" for many guys to meet a prospective single woman. Personally, I can see why internet dating websites exist.
There are a plethera of women available. They just dont match what your single buddies are seeing in the strxp club, magazines, and on the internet.
in other words, they are regular everyday women? Go figure.
