As a single woman, it can be easy to fall into the trap of having unrealistic standards when looking for a romantic partner. We all want to find that perfect person who ticks all the boxes on our “must-have” list, but the reality is that these standards are often impossible to meet.
According to a recent study, only 2% of men make over six figures and are over six feet tall. Yet, these are two of the most common requirements that single women have when looking for a partner. This means that the odds of finding an attractive man with good social skills who also meets these financial and physical requirements is incredibly low.
But why do we have these unrealistic standards in the first place? It could be that we are constantly bombarded with images of tall, handsome, wealthy men in the media, leading us to believe that this is the norm. Or, perhaps, we are still holding onto the fairy tale of finding our Prince Charming and living happily ever after.
Whatever the reason, having unrealistic standards when looking for a partner can lead to disappointment and frustration. It’s important to remember that there is no such thing as a perfect partner, and that what truly matters is finding someone who is compatible with you and makes you happy.
Instead of focusing on superficial qualities such as height and income, try to focus on what truly matters in a relationship: shared values, a sense of humor, and good communication. These are the qualities that will make for a happy and lasting relationship.
It’s time to let go of the unrealistic standards and open ourselves up to the possibility of finding love with someone who may not meet every item on our checklist, but who makes our hearts full.
In conclusion, unrealistic standards can prevent us from finding true love, it’s important to focus on the qualities that truly matter in a relationship and not just physical and material possessions.
