Well one of the synonyms of mediocre and generic is average. By the very definition of the word most people are average and yet still manage to date, marry and get laid.
As Chow said in today's time a lot of people don't want to hear that.
Sure to friends and family we are unique and special as we should be but those who truly aren't average have a name that's recognized around the world.

Okay, sorry. Yes, most people are average...hence the word, well, "average," LOL! BUT you don't need to present yourself that way. "Hi. I'm generic and really not much. How about a date?" There is SOMETHING interesting in practically anybody. Bring that thing out.
That theme song was playing in my head too. I love the part where he stumbles into the puddle of sewage and the mate helps him out. Priceless
What does that really mean? If you are average... there area other average women too. If you are only looking for 1 person... there has to be at least 1 person out ther for you. Just make sure when you do find them you treat them as you would want to be treated.
I always wonder if indirectly if this average person in saying they are average and want to date a super model. If that is the case I would say all things are possible, but if an average looking women is not good enough for you why should someone better looking then you pay you any mind and why do you place so much value on the exterior?
Im totally okay with someone average i dont mind it i just been a bit more alectove on who I want to date
What i offer is very generic
I have a college degree and make 50k
Body is average
Life style is extremely laid back probably average
My ambitous is pretty average
I only go above and beyond in treating a woman beyond good
I used to own a business but that lifestyle is grunting and hard
Personally i dont mind but i am becomin a bit more selective on who i want to date and stay with
Now people tell me to that the average man has less of a chance beause hes no brad pitt but then again VERY FEW Man can truely be a brad pitt
Idk people have wierd expectations about dating
I hope i can find the right woman even with being mediocre

Exactly what you are saying could be said by a woman in the same position. The idea that most women want a Brad Pitt type guys is nonsense. Most women that were not dropped on their head at birth might appreciate oh he is a pretty attractive man, but they do not expect a man to look/be like that and if they do red flag ... what the heck is wrong with them to expect this from the average person unless they themselved have looks in a comparable level? So I am assuming if I think this way there are other women that think this way too (and likely some men too). The way you see yourself might be the issue.
By generic, I am going to assume you mean just a plain old normal guy. I say, yes it is ok to be a generic guy in dating. If you didn't know me, to see me by all outward appearances I am a generic guy. I an mid fifties but don't look it or dress like an older guy, so to anyone who doesn't know me I am generic. I have no trouble with women.
People are always shocked when they find out how old I am when it comes up in conversation and that takes the generic away from me immediately, as they just can't get over the fact I look like a 40 yo guy instead of 55. Then after finding out my hobbies and interests I am even less generic.
I see no problem in being generic. I personally would go after a generic woman before one who looks high-end or special because I have found them to be more high maintenance. Just my two cents.
