[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Odds are higher if you broaden your horizons. 
Not lower your standards, but broaden your horizons. You don’t have to date loser incels who don’t shower. But consider divorcees, people of different races/ethnicities/religious backgrounds/national origins/whatever, people who are blue collar, men under 5’10, men who don’t share all your hobbies and interests. A good partner doesn’t have to check all the boxes, he needs to be kind and loyal and make you happy.

From my experience, the dating apps are loaded with introverted Asian men who work in tech. [/quote]

LOL.... I guess I am guilty because I am one of those "Asian tech" guys.  I was a founder of a startup and it was acquired by another company.  I pocketed around 25M after the acquisition.  I played tennis for an Ivy league school and am a very good musician.  I didn't get married until I turned 37 years old to a wonderful & beautiful 28 blonde hair blue eye woman.  I am introverted by nature because I don't want to brag about my accomplishments but I can give most of you a very good beating on the tennis court or in a jamming session with my guitar.  My number goal in life is to make my wife and kids, we have two, happy and to provide for them, bar none.

It was funny that when I started dating my wife, she met me at the park where I played in the final of a high level USTA tennis tournament and I beat my opponent so badly that the match lasted less than an hour.  She told me on our first date that she didn't picture as an athlete.  It turned out that my wife enjoys running marathons, both of us signed up for the Marine Corp Marathon before we knew each other.  We ran that marathon and finished it in less than four hours.  I could have finished the marathon in less than 3 1/2 hours but I wanted to finish along with her.  She was extremely happy that I did.  After the marathon, we went to dinner and to a bar for a drink after that.  That place had a stage where people could go up there and show their musical talent.  I went up and play "tears in heaven" on the guitar.  After that date, she was completely sold on me, LOL....

Do not dismiss Asian men who work in tech.  Many of them have a lot of talents besides tech. Last but not least, many of them have money too.  Most of them know how to treat women, unlike most typical white guys.  YMMV.

PP. You sound like quite the catch. My point about “introverted Asian tech” men was intended to be positive. Not saying “ugh all I can find are Asian tech nerds!” but that it seems that they are overlooked, given the high ratio of 30s Asian men working for AWS and Microsoft and the like I have found on the dating apps. I’m currently in a relationship with a South Asian tech guy who is rather introverted. The point being that single white women overlook potential great matches by sticking with tall, white, bro-y men. [/quote]
