People, both genders, complain about a lack of compatible potential partners. The issue is not lack lack of people, it's lack of reality.
YOU CAN:
have an attractive mate
have a person that gels with your "style"
have a great relationship
The issue is people have there heads in the clouds. There is an endless pool of available people that can more than fulfill your "requirements".
Be flexible. Most people are very rigid and often times confuses that with " I refuse to settle". We don't want you to "settle" we want to to be happy. In order to be happy, you MUST be flexible.
That's the reality, BE FLEXIBLE. Remain open minded. People come from all corners and walks of life. With over 6 billion people on the planet, all of us has MANY compatible candidates to choose from.
I find it laughable when people complain about not being able to find anyone that lives up to their "standards".
I'll repeat: BE FLEXIBLE. Do not confuse this with "settling". It's not the same.
And how do you know that those who are single are so because they haven't been flexible? What if someone has been "flexible" but still can't find a mate? Also, how do you judge or determine what people should be flexible on? This is broad Rocco, so can you please elaborate?
Roc, I completely disagree !
there is NO ABUNDANCE , of good people ,
I believe there are a FEW, more like a needle in the haystack.
Agreed. The quality of women has gone WAY down the past 10 years or so. It's damn near impossible to find a relatively attractive one that is also a nice person and single. If such a woman is available, she will have TONS of guys chasing after her.

No, she wouldn't. For one thing, no one would know she's a nice person and single, just by looking at her. Men would still be too shy to approach, or would assume she's taken, not to mention all the guys who have given up on trying to find anyone or who consider approaching to be "too much work", believe they have nothing to offer women, or assume women will approach them. Men that this relatively attractive, nice woman approaches will still turn her down because she's not their type. Players will ignore her because she looks too "nice", and not hot-to-trot.
The quality of women hasn't gone way down. It's the dating scene, attitudes and complexes that's the same-old, same-old.

I'm single, nice and attractive woman. I get checked out by men but never get asked out. I've even asked my guy friends what's wrong with me. They say I'm the full package: beautiful, smart, sophisticated, funny and an overall good person. They also say they can't make out why I don't get dates.
The usual advice I get is to date people I'm not attracted to.

Depends on what one means by being flexible. Everyone has requirements and nice to have. For me a requirement is he must not have kids. To some they would tell me to be flexible about this but I refused and I found someone without kids. However that is different by finding someone who has something I don't like but can handle. My boyfriend has a few issues I wish he didn't, but these were nice to have not requirements.
