Most men will choose to date a woman who cares more about family, friends, and real accomplishment than one who's claim to fame is sleeping with men in many different countries.
The question is not whether you should be with him, it's whether he should be with you.

Yeah, I don't get the idea she's a narcissist. More of an elitist.
Her problem is that (despite her attempted deflections) she views her different experiences as superior to his. She later tried to backtrack from that but the tone of her post clearly suggested that while she liked him, she was worried that his past wasn't up to her standards.
An aside, I do find it strange that it wasn't until page 4 that we learned of her children. Seems a big thing to leave out and makes me wonder whether OP is being fully up front, or just trying to save face following the initial onslaught of criticism. But I'm a naturally skeptical sort.
