Maybe we should be more concerned with what WE bring and have less high expectations of others.
@Magenta Yeah, isn't it amazing how many people on social media present their litany of demands and expectations without ever giving one hint of what they offer in return for perfection?

@RogueLodyte Truly. It's like they expect a superman or woman to fulfil all their wants or demands.

@RogueLodyte They do often say what they will bring to the table, but it isn't good. 😬

Stuff like,

"I am a stay at home single parent of four little blessings, ages ranging 6 months to three years. I am collecting disability for my crippling depression, severe obesity, and bipolar disorder...."

And of course their demands are, shall we say, unrealistic.

@Magenta Everyone thinks they somehow deserve the very best, even if they themselves have a low dating value.

@HoeBag Inflated opinions of self.

@Magenta I wonder if they realize that if someone is resorting to a dating site, there is a reason.
I am no catch but then I do not expect "the very best".

Of course looking at the turds in my dating pool, I decided to stay single.
@HoeBag I have always said that I am not so perfect as to be qualified to qualify anybody. I've never even looked at a 'dating site' and I never will. It's not like I don't get enough lying on these opinion sites.
@Magenta Or maybe they feel that all they need to offer is their "STUNNING" boobs...speaking of inflated. A little play on words there. 🤣

@RogueLodyte I've not ever been on a dating site either and not going to start now. IF I were dating, it would be the good old fashioned way.

😄Think some actually think that.
