but maybe they can't...if they could, don't you think they would? Myself for example...I can't get boyfriends. So it's not like I have a choice to enter into a partnership...there are no opportunities for me. People cna't enter into a commitment when they aren't even given an opportunity.
Have you expressed your interest in any men? By actually going up to them and saying, "We should go out sometime."
I don't mean trips to the grocery store...I mean parties, bars, the beach, different kinds of events in the city, singles events, etc...opportunities to actually sit down and speak to someone for a substantial amount of time. Some people go out there and go to every single social event possible and still can't meet anyone.
Or meeting people that they're rejecting for one reason or another...

Of course...and here's the thing...we usually do end up going on dates...but the men I meet are not commitment type...which is what you get when you're an attractive woman. I'm not gonna lie and I hate to brag, but I am attractive...and b/c of this, I only meet men who want to sleep with me...never the committing type...and that's why I can't get BOYFRIENDS. I get a lot of dates from men...hoping to lead to sex and that's it. I never get men who are interested in being my boyfriend or one day my husband.

The plot thickens.
So there are opportunities available, but I'm inferring you have certain standards (besides commitment) that need to be lived up to. Correct?

There are no opportunities...i'm not interested in sex. I am not meeting the men I want to meet. Perhaps there are opportunities, yes, but I am not finding them.

Sex had nothing to do with my question.
My question is whether there are other standards you have besides "whether or not he'll commit."
For instance, having at least a half set of teeth?
Being funny?
Being truthful?
Owning a car?
Owning an expensive car?
Having 6-pack abs?
et cetera..
Not asking for a list; just confirming that there are factors that you control, which contribute to whether you're single or not.

Out of what you mentioned...truthful for sure...all his teeth would be nice, lol...and funny for the most part, but if not...that's not a dealbreaker...b/c really, I'm not that funny either. Also, not someone incredibly obese b/c I am concerned about health issues and I would want him to be around for a long time and be healthy.
Others...just really someone who treats me as a person with feelings and not as sex object at this point. I used to have high standards, but that wasn't really working...so the only requirement really: don't lie, and treat me as how you would want to be treated.
I don't think that is too much to ask for.
