Will a man with all those attributes want to date you? Do you have a degree, and a great career? I work with many college educated men, and some will not date a woman who is not their equal when it comes to what they bring to the table.
Yes I do have a degree and have a great career. I make good money like they guys I work with. I drive a nice car. I own a house which is halfway paid.
She says she doesn't have any issues finding, and presumably dating, the guys that meet her 'requirements' so I guess I don't see what the problem is?
I mean, my standards are basically 'Don't want to punch him, not morbidly obese, supports himself, doesn't have a criminal record, doesn't do drugs' and I can't seem to find a guy that matches all those super high standards who wants to date me.
Attractive women are allowed to have standards, so if she's successful then obviously her standards are fine.
Those are now high standards? Those to me seem like obvious ones. Then again going by what I saw online it seemed most of the guys were missing at least one of those.

That may me laugh at loud. You're too funny. I don't see what the problem is either.

Maybe it was a typo, but loosing? Not understanding the differences between may be and maybe? Ummm, unacceptable. I'm not a spelling/grammar Nazi as I can hardly string a sentence together myself, but there needs to be a degree of walking the walk here.
My friends said that because I decline invitations from other guys who don't meet my qualifications, I maybe loosing my chances of meeting some great guys. That I should lower my standards. A friend got engaged to a guy that I honestly wouldn't date. I think she can find a better catch than him. But she lowered her standards just to get married. I personally, wouldn't do it.
I kind of understand.
I would like to own and drive a Bentley but circumstances in the funds department has made me lower my standards for something else. Still ok.... Just wished for the better at times.

If you aren't having problems - then what difference does it make?
That's what I am thinking. Whether its silly or not if it working for you what does it matter. My friends need to read this though. I think they would leave me alone lol.
What's weird is just about every guy I know fits the OP's "high" standards - college degree, manager, fit, attractive, between 5'9 -6'2 (average male height, I think). I never considered these extremely high standards.
That's the real question. If a guy truly has all this in the bag, there is little incentive for him to settle down, unless he is also of a traditional mindset.
But plenty of guys with these standards do settle down - for LOVE!
