The premise of the 80/20 rule is that you will never get more than 80% of what you want in a partner, the 80/20 rule is why many cheat and why many have a fear of commitment.
Examples:
"she is a great mother to my children,beautiful, keeps herself in shape and runs the household perfectly, but she only want's to have sex twice a week"
Where do you get this stuff? We've never heard of this particular 80/20 rule, here on C-D. It sure isn't why so many have a fear of commitment. There is generally no fear of commitment when people find a really great match. In that circumstance, they can't wait to commit. They can't commit fast enough, lol. Often, fear of commitment relates to parental divorce issues in someone's background.
Sex twice a week is twice as much, even 4 times as much, as what a fair number of guys are getting. More than what some married women are getting, too. Life can always be worse.
OP, you're overthinking. Keep looking; you just haven't found the right woman yet. Good luck.

People have posted the same vid here on CD a few times now over the years, you must have just missed them.
. You know you're on the antisocial side, live financially very close to the vest/semi-off the grid which naturally is going to eliminate a certain percentage of women (well, all people...how about friends, guy friends? Do you have those? You don't mention any), generally don't go out except at night, and refuse to smile in your photos/wear bandannas and carry weapons with a glare on your face in photos. You know you have anxiety and you may have depression. Fix those - stop looking for reasons outside yourself. You already know what needs to be fixed even just for your own happiness, much less bringing a second person into the equation.
lol! Really?? OP, it's time to get real. You have issues. Many people do, it's quite common, nothing to be ashamed of. Deal with them, and life can--will--improve. Are you marginally employed? Your health care may cover "mental health" care, i.e. counseling/therapy. A good psychologist/psychotherapist can help you turn around the depression and resolve whatever from your past is messing you up. (Whatever happened to you as a kid is not your fault. But if you let it go without dealing with it as an adult, that is on you.) The trick is to find a good one. They're out there. Best of luck!

Nah...
someone's personal opinion does not make it a rule.
You are overthinking your situation, and you are looking for excuses because of that.
The OP has even said that he hasn't dated in a really long time, so how can he even say "Relationships suck" when he can't even find a woman that will date him?
