One hears of sayings like "there is somebody for everybody", which in fairness is based on some degree of fact.

But guys who fall into one of the categories below should note the following:

- Feeling they're too ugly to get a date
- Feeling that their standards are too high
- Feeling that all women are golddiggers/out for money and status
- Feeling that because some women (out of literally hundreds of millions of dating aged females in the world) cheated on them, it makes all women everywhere bad

Nothing in life is absolute. There is no such thing as fact. Never say never on anything.

We are only human beings, and none of us can rule out any possibility in life totally. As there is no such thing in fact, how can one say they can never get a date? It is not strange to say that facts don't exist. Think about it for a moment. It is a fact that water boils at 100 degrees Celsius. but can anybody say this is true in any degree of absolute totality? Yes, our instruments used to measure this are accurate, but they are man-made, and thus not perfect. In reality, in the human sphere, "fact" basically means 99% sure. The remaining 1% is the uncertainty that is inherent in life.

Confidence is key, and it isn't just something said for the sake of it. Who respects somebody who does not respect themselves? Building a healthy self-worth is the initial step in looking attractive to people, in both a platonic and romantic sense.

I think the problem with Single Guys is really simple:

They are shallow and unrealistic. Most guys I meet are trying to meet women that don't even exist. They offer nothing to any relationship, nor have any social skills, yet feel entitled that the prettiest girl in the room should throw herself at him.

I can't believe the audacity of the 2010 single male to call single females shallow. Most of them couldn't even be bothered to have a cordial conversation with a woman unless she is 34-25-36. A lot of single guys out there don't even know what a real woman looks like.

The problem is supply and demand. It's like whining that you didn't get a Wii the first day it came out.

I'd give you a reputation point, but must have liked something else you said and thus can not.

Basically, the only time you can be absolutely, 100% certain about what is going to happen to you in life is after you are dead.
