Very interesting post.

As it relates to my situation, I find that the places to meet these self-proclaimed “quality singles” is limited. Where I live, it is career suicide to date a colleague (often it ends up in sexual harrassment cases), bar scene, even I find speed dating is “buyer beware” and the gym is full of single women who have serious attitude.

I think that these career women who have difficulty finding a quality partner, need to look at themselves first. I think in some cases, some of these singles have unrealistic, fantasy-like expectations (ie. must have car, house, MBA and a six figure income before I go on a coffee date) As a man, I refuse to accept the “all men suck” from these women. In fact, many of these career women don’t even have this going on in their life.

I think what some people are telling you Ms. Braswell is that “they will make the room if that person measures up”. If I met a woman who I found interesting, had all this room, her house had extra space etc. I would be thinking, she’s crazy. From that perspective. Nowadays, I find these women act like I am their “convienence factor” which I am not. I am a human being and wish to treated with respect and courtesy. Most importantly, I am seeking a “life partner”, not a corporate subordinate that is disposable in her eyes.

Have a good one.
