I did a calculation once about my chances of finding a compatible long-term partner, inspired by the Drake Equation and using many many assumptions. The numbers are not good: ~22 out of 8 billion.
As a married man, I gotta say you’re probably selling yourself short or have unrealistic expectations of a partner.
Remember that whoever you’re going to date is a person, not a robot. People are not quantifiable. One day they may be a dick, the next they may be pleasant. Some people are willing to compromise and others aren’t. Man, woman, or other, it doesn’t matter. If you’re not willing to compromise something, you’re never going to find someone.
Look I wasn’t completely serious about it, there’s no way to actually calculate something like that.
For example what’s the fraction of people that find me attractive. It could range from 0.05 to 0.5. I have no way of knowing.
Now try finding someone you find attractive and who also finds you attractive in return (it’s impossible).
Honestly if you lower your standards it gets pretty easy.

Post pic or be assumed attractive
I’d rather be assumed attractive than to remove all doubt.
Go hangout at a Starbucks in a target if you want to meet women, they’re certainly not going to wander into your bedroom.
Not willingly, at least
Cant drink coffee m8, even the smell makes me throw up
Ah yes, people love it when another person has such a weak constitution that they can’t handle the smell of incredibly common drinks
Glad to see were on the same page. Enjoy your coffee o supreme one.
I only need to make 1 assumption to solve that equation for me
0% of people would find me attractive
QE fucking D
So you’re saying there’s a chance
That seems absurdly low. Are you sure that all of your criteria are non-negotiable? And entirely uncorrelated?

You could work backwards from successful marriage counts.
Yall need to lower your expectations god damn
I like reminding my single friends that 73% of Americans are considered overweight. 41% are obese.
A shocking amount of my male friends are overweight or obese and refuse to date overweight women.
