High Standards

Hello everyone I noticed from searching through sites, profiles and stuff for a while. I noticed people have all these high expectations and standards regarding their perfect match. What are your thoughts ?

Reason I brought this up is because reading all those profiles they all started to run together at not being all that different. I got the impression people think they are in titled to all they ask. Not to mentioned they all seem to ask for the same. So I ask myself this is the real world right? There's no way a normal average guy could live up to their expectations. We're only human we can't all be funny, successful, out going, adventures and good with family. On top of that have a career and money to travel. Not to mention be easy on the eyes and have an active life style. Now, I have some what of a career but it consumes my time and life style. These eats away at the time with family not to mention no friends. So I ask myself what am I doing wrong that I can't meet those standards since so many women believe that possible. Not to mention some post their lifestyles to be that way. I can only imagine they come from rich families because last I checked they are still working to improve women's rights in the work place. Does any one see this too? I am curious. Now I know I have a long way to go to balance life and work. But that will only improve once I get to the career I aim for. I will say this the people on here seem to be more real than those on other sites. I feel like people raise the standards making it hard not only for everyone else but they forget they are raising expectations of themselves. Then they wonder why they are alone. I feel the best approach is to not have expectations and try things out if you let things happen and you like how you are treated. Then you have better chance of success.

i only have high standards based on physical attraction. i keep fit even though i have medical conditions so i expect my partner to be motivated enough to be fit as well. also all kinds of guys have approached me solely for my looks, so that adds to that as well

I think everyone has that "perfect" someone in mind. Then when we/they realize that no one is perfect, they lower their standards even if they dont admit it.

I'm not saying you <i>have</i> to have magical powers<br/><br/> But it is a big plus in my book

X3 My standards are actually average or pretty low X3 Just dont be a total asshole and dont be old enough to be my father ^^

Yeah my standards are quite reasonable. It depends on each individual but I think most people are able to get off from those high standards and become more reasonable.

I don't have high standards. I just want someone who's a gentleman,respectful,trustworthy,funny,caring,have some things in common,understanding,& responsible.
