Is it really to do with the quality of the men out there or are they simply too picky, holding out for something which does not exist or is so rare in real life? Their criteria often sounds simple enough: someone caring, kind, funny, smart blah blah, these traits aren't exactly rare, yet women complain they can't find Mr. Right or even get a decent date. Fellas, doesn't that annoy you somewhat? They complain because out of the dozens of suitors none meets their lofty standards (or rather, they ***** and moan about the last three when they knew they were getting themselves into ) while a lot of guys can't even find a woman to be abusive to him? lol
People love to complain about what's out there. That's easier than looking in the mirror and asking if the problem resides with them. What's also true is that many people are afraid to settle. They feel like they're just as deserving as the next person and that if they settle, people will think less of them and worse, someone better may come along and they'll have missed out. Of course, this doesn't stop people from just cheating. But I think some people would rather hold out for Mr. or Mrs. Perfect than come back down to Earth. I don't find it annoying when women complain about their being no good men left. I just roll my eyes when I see them setting the bar a little too high.

Or maybe the other answer, that what you see on TV isn't a real reflection on real life, and is full of women who think they don't really need men, yet constantly whine and complain that they can't find that special someone.
Trying to figure out the "why" is how the drama continues.
I think men and women find more to complain about when they settle, when they DON'T hold out for the qualities that really matter to them. I think the mindset of lowering expectations can be just as detrimental as it can be unreasonable, for some people.
I find plenty of good men out there. one that I'm compatible with and have the hots for in any way at all? nope, no luck. I just know something needs to change, but I don't have the energy right now to figure that out, lol.
Well hey, lookey here! we just figured out a solution!!
