I actually thought many American women go the other way, as in delusionally high self-esteem. Some are just picky to the point of .

It's all a matter of the situation they are in.
With most men, you are absolutely correct.
However, with that rare type they crave and obsess about, they soon realize that they likely don't have what it takes and all that self esteem crammed into them in grades 1 through 10 just melts away like a Popsicle in the Mohave Desert sun.
I think having your shyte together matters to a lot of people and I've yet to come across a person that will not publicly acknowledge values because of PC. Folk want partners of their own cloth as well. What I'm saying is that it might impress a woman that doesn't have anything going on, but for a lady with a life (friends, family, an education, a career, hobbies, etc) it's not enough to compensate for a guy that has problems (emotional, psychologically, or otherwise). I'm educated. I have a good career. I have family, friends, etc, and I also have choices when it comes to men. There are more than enough good men to go around (ime), so there would never be a reason for me to spend time with a guy that is bigoted towards women. There's nothing PC or non-PC about that.
People speaking of either training men or men being trained, not wanting to be trained, etc is toonish (to me). Surely, it must be a joke. There's no depth to these players. I have a hard time believing that people actually speak this way, as if they reside in the boob tube or something. Granted, I understand it's a reality for many, well, according to the folk on CD at least, but it's bizarre from where I sit.
When considering caliber, you're all on equal footing given that likes couple with likes, but the complaints always come that you want someone of a higher caliber than you (men or women). And since you can't manage it then there's something obviously wrong with an entire gender. lol Again, this isn't directed at just men or women, but both.
Well, Timeless Classic (love the moniker, btw) you're the guy that has what most of Western Society refers to as, "everything" Your situation is a job for experts, as in a professional matchmaker. Have you heard of Patti Stanger? She excels with the kind of problem you describe. Blessings.

Nah, I'm just a simple guy who has always been an over-achiever and goal-oriented from the very beginning. That doesn't make me any better than anyone else, but it is difficult to find people who share my enthusiasm and drive. For example, the one thing that still really boggles my mind is the sense of entitlement, especially pervalent in Western societies, given that I was brought up to work hard for, and earn, everything I have.
BTW, I do watch "The Millionaire Matchmaker" regularly, but more as entertainment than anything else.
