Everyone telling you to lower them doesn’t even know what they are. If you’d rather be alone than with someone who doesn’t meet all your standards, keep your standards. If some of your standards aren’t quite as important (e.g., height, hair color), you could consider expanding them to a wider range. Or if you only want to date your age +- 2 years, allow your age +-4 years. Might be little things like that.

You need to lower them. Disney princess movies aren’t real life.

But why would they choose you? The guy you want has standards too

Because I have high standards for myself so I’m allowed to seek someone on the same level as me

Reality check, most women have high standards like you. You’re probably not as special as you think you are. Most y’all don’t really understand nor care what a man wants.

Look, I’m giving you pro tips rn. I’m giving you valuable insight as to why you’re not finding this guy. And you’re arguing about it, the women good men are looking for wouldn’t argue about what we find attractive

Noooo I’m not trying to argue I promise and I absolutely understand what you’re saying. I’m just trying to make clear that I have high standards for myself that I attain to meet everyday, so I feel as though I’m allowed to have high standards for guys that I want

The thing is from experience and pattern recognition, y’alls standards are more unrealistic than you probably realize. From the psychology of a man, we actually find women with humble standards/demeanor more attractive

I know I came off as not so humble but I don’t go and brag about the high value of myself on my day to day basis, I tend to keep to myself, but deep down I know who I am and I deserve someone like myself and I think that’s not a crazy thing to say

The main factor in you getting this man is your looks then your actual personality lol. Holding yourself to a high standard doesn’t entitle you

As a psychologist I hear this so much, your priorities and the way you think about it is so off. I’d be glad to offer tips though if you want

Agreed. I would want a woman that puts work into her body, and actually cares. I’m glad you got standards, because that just means when you do find the right guy, it will be beautiful, I believe in you!!

Don’t ever lower standards of basic human decency. No cheating, no gaslighting, must show empathy, … are all essential standards you should never lower for anyone.

Yeah my standards really have nothing to do with height or looks 😓

Yea even more so. I would for sure keep your standards, even if it takes longer to find someone, just means that it’ll be someone you actually enjoy being with.
