In fairness, there's a whole analogous trend of "men going it alone," which is an actual movement. I'm wondering if this was always a thing, or if the Internet has exacerbate it. Maybe we'll get to a point where only Super Alpha Bros and Super Models actually reproduce and everyone else just gets hooked up to virtual reality simulators and checks out.
IT says a lot that you would use those two as the ultimate form of male and female in the world. I am so happy I decided to stay single instead of run into someone like you.

Sure this assumes that you are some how special. It's mostly an ego trip. The sad facts are if a man makes a lot of money, has a degree from a big named university, family money and/or prestigious job, he has his pick of women. If you as a woman do not bring any of those things to the table why do you think you should end up with a man who does? Feminism is about women's egos writing checks they real life can't cash. Keep the bitterness alive.

1) my "father" was an alcoholic who could not be a parent in any way, financial, emotional, protective. He pretty much left when I was 11 and I only saw him once since then.
1) early 20's meet a guy who is my first real love. He is in the military, law degree, very loving and attentive. We start a really awesome relationship and then one day, all of a sudden, his wife and kid show up (he was deployed when I met him).
After him I had a lot of trust issues, did some pretty self destructive shit.
3) early 30's meet a guy who I saw myself with for the rest of my life. He was feeling the same. He comes from a good family, highly educated, great job, very loving. Until we accidentally get pregnant. Then all hell broke loose.
I am not saying I didn't play a part but I just don't see how trying again would get me any better than what I had so far. I'm fine being single.
I think it's telling that you put "military & law degree" and "good family, highly educated, and great job" before "loving & attentive." The other stuff is nice, but it's the loyalty, love, and affection that should be your primary focus when looking for a significant other. I wonder if you're making some mistakes because you're looking for the father figure you never had.

I got your patriarchy right here, toots!

Men nowadays are just so.... horrible.
Why do your friends pursue such shitty potential mates?
