But, from my singular perspective, most women aren't really compatible with me...(by their own admission, or by my assessment..)

Don't see that as being hypocritical as mush as I see it as being realistic...
Different perceptions.

I see it as hypocritical to state 'relationship worthy women are rarer than a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow' yet when a man's relationship worth comes into play it's not two craps are given it only matters to the gal he's with.

I also see it as bias to judge gals in general relationship worth yet guys in general get no judgement and as only judgement is by the gal he's with.

Bit curious as to why you don't use the same realism with guys when it comes to gals. Why isn't the real problem is that relationship worthy guys are rarer than a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow like it is with gals?

He's saying a girl that's relationship worth for him is rare. It doesn't seem that hard to grasp.. not everyone is going to be attracted to, or looking for a relationship for everyone. He said he just needs someone to see him as relationship worthy and it's really all that matters.

He said "The real problem is that relationship worthy women are rarer than a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. What else can we be expected to do but to continuously be looking?"

If he was talking about himself than why did he use 'we' rather than 'I'?

If he was talking about his own opinion than why isn't it 'my problem' rather 'the real problem' as if he's speaking for men general rather than speaking for himself?

Seems more like he was saying 'relationship worthy gals are rare' not 'a gal that's relationship worth for me is rare'.

We...not me...not I...that's seems more like talking for men in general than talking for himself.

No different than if a gal is more likely talking in general than talking for herself if she said:
The real problem is that guys are useless douchebags and a good man is rarer than a pig flying. What else can we be expected to do but to continuously upgrade for better?

I don't know, the only girl whose opinion of me I'd care about would be one I'd care about more than just "some girl" in the first place. I guess I don't care what a general group of strangers has to say about me when they have no idea what it's like to live my life, particularly, if I didn't ask them for advice...
But, a girl, a specific girl, who I care about, if she has something to say about me...I'll listen more because what she thinks matters...

And I'm pretty sure many girls are always like "no good guys exist anymore"...which may or may not be true. But to them, that's the real problem...but it's not mine. So, I don't really know much about it.

as it appears I was correct that you were talking for others rather than talking for yourself.

not that I was talking for others, rather, I was talking and to you it appeared it was for others. so, yeah, you were correct that to you it appeared i was talking for others...
but i was always talking for myself...

Amusing spin though it doesn't change when a person starts use 'we' instead of 'me' or 'I' they're more likely talking for others than for themselves.

I'm still not sure what he meant by that.

To be fair to women, men are even less interesting generally...so, in that respect, they are the more interesting sex...but that's because I'm biased...but after awhile you find the same general types and if you're looking for something more, it becomes difficult to know where to look for it...
I don't think how interesting a person is can be ascertained in the venue previously described. Clubs if IIRC. When I did go to clubs I was one of those women who went with a group. I was there to either see a DJ or attend a night (trance, psytrance, whatever) and dance. The guys standing around the dance floor, off to the sides, by the bar, etc staring at women are not what comes to mind when I think of interesting. Them being there to get potentially get laid was lame, especially if there was a good guest DJ in attendance.

As for your last point, as long as the girl in my life thinks I'm worthy of relationship worthy women, or really, just the one relationship worthy woman...I couldn't give two craps what you have to say on that...
It makes no difference what I think. You will get exactly what you deserve like the rest of us. Men who trash women, ime on this forum at least, end up getting what they have to give-shyte. No good woman would settle for a shyte talker.
