It would be someone for everyone if people would lover their standards to minimum. Bars at night during work week are lined with forever aloners. Especially if hot barista work there. No there is not someone for everione up to standards.
I assume you meant "lower their standards."
That also doesn't count.
No way would I nor any other self-respecting person be expected to do that. I would not settle under any circumstance. However I would compromise to a point.

Yes, some people have a much harder time of it. Sometimes it's not obviously, either. I.e. a fit looking guy with poor social skills. There is someone out of the billions who would be willing to date you though.
I'm being realistic. That is why it's a myth that there is someone for everyone.
There is someone for 99.99999%+ of everyone. However, some of those people need to improve themselves and be happy with themselves before they become date-able to any decent person who likes them for them (instead of their money, status, etc.) Other folks may need to make other internal or external changes in their life to better improve their dating pool...for example, moving to a new location that has more people and/or is more conducive to their lifestyle or interests. The worst thing to do is just sit there and wallow and whine.
There's also those few people out there that while there may be someone out there for them...they have no business hooking up with anyone. Such people are usually extreme psychos that don't belong in a normal society.

I understand that it's a cycle whereby the less success you have and the older you get, the more insecure/desperate you become. That said, you're making it that much harder by 'trying' to get a date and dwelling on it so much. Just try to talk to people (both genders and women you're not interested in/aren't available) and, when you come across women you want to go out with, ask them out.
I still think the whole idea of dating to find someone or looking to get married is just weird.
I meet and like YOU so I want to date YOU.
I love YOU so I want to marry YOU.
It's not just about having someone...it's about meeting someone worth wanting and having.
People are too obsessed with the institutions. That's why their relationships fail.
Stop complaining about your height. Short men are dateable.
