I think if you're focus is on how someone else should meet your expectations then you're setting yourself up for perpetual disappointment and plenty of time alone.

Better question for the OP to ask: What do I bring to a relationship? What can I do to make someone happy? What am I doing to better myself and improve my own life outside of pursuing a relationship?

You are reading far too much into the subject title...it was a post I wanted to make based on a post about "quality, attractive women" started by another person here on CD. It was in good fun. Lighten up, lol. What am I doing to better myself? Well, let's see...I do volunteer work at a wildlife conservation museum, I created a program to provide mentors for special education students back when I was in HS, and I'm holding a 4.0 GPA in a pre-vet curriculum (with a double minor on top of my B.S. in Public Health)...I think I'm improving myself quite well, thanks!

Me: So nobody EVER asks you out?
You: Well, yeah they do, but it's never guys that I want.
Me: Well what about that guy? oints to a guy:
You: No, he has an ugly shirt. I can't date guys that wear ugly shirts.
Me: Well what about him? oints to someone else:
You: No, he has a beard. I don't date guys with beards.
Me: Him?
You: Disgusting. The pinky on his left hand is slightly longer than the pinky on his right hand.

Does that sound right?
Nope, not even close.

dude, I gotta be homnest, you're not that pretty or hot. Even if those are old pics from when you were young and you look different, you're not that hot. There's nothing particularly special about you. You're "pretty", but just generic pretty.

Here's a thgouht, to you and all women, how about you try and actually date someone on that, you know, DATING site? How the hell do you know for sure that each of those 100+ men are not quality men? Answer is, you don't. And let's not forget, men always look worse in photos, cameras are no friend to men.

And get rid of your list. Remember, you're going to be dating a person, not a list. A person with all his flaws and experiences and everything. Part of life. Grow up and engage in the human condition.

You're still young then, what are you worried about? Who cares what other people think or want? Let them drown in their own misery. If you are so busy and happy then you wouldn't care about this. Go enjoy the life you claim is treating you so well then.

Wish I could tell you but in my observation, the vast majority of men are not that great looking. Many don't know how to dress, wear their hair or present themselves in a sexy or attractive way.

Eh, pretty is good enough for me.

I don't think people should get rid of a list, there are certain qualities of people that actually make them unpleasant to be around with.

Sometimes the truth is brutal.

When I sent my pictures to a few people to get an opinion, only 1 had anything nice to say. The rest said I was unattractive, mediocre or just plain ugly.

One needs to know where they stand without sugar coating it.

I actually think she's pretty cute, but I'm a chick so my opinion really doesn't matter much.
