How come it seems all the assholes end up in happy relationships?

And the decent people who've been screwed over by them end up alone

Everyone has different definitions of assholes and in reality, it is immaterial. Maybe "assholes" are living the life as it should and other people are just jealous of them and hence, call them assholes.

Someone who leads another person on willingly for months/years under false pretences is a selfish inconsiderate asshole. No one will change my mind about that

@Adelh91: They used that other person to become happy. It's very logical that they ended up being happy because they did everything they could to be happy while the other person who was led on didn't ensure that their situation will lead to happiness so they couldn't end up being happy. Makes sense.
