Just find a good-enough guy and youll be fine. Youre too desperate. If men think you need them, theyll run scared. Youre too independent. Smart, ambitious women always have a harder time finding mates. You have low self-esteem. You cant love someone else until youve learned to love yourself. Youre too needy.
