Its okay to have high standards - as long as you can match some of them.

Most people end up settling. If you don't let go of your high standards, you'll probably end up alone.

No. Unless your standards are way higher than you deserve, tbh. Nothing bothers me more than guys who talk about how they deserve all these "fit, hot chicks," yet they're lazy slobs themselves.

If you're as good as what you're demanding I don't see why not.

Not at all.

But what does it mean, to "deserve"? Should people only date who they physically "deserve"; i.e. people with similar levels of fitness?

You should only have standards as high as you can fit. A 6 expecting a 10 is

You just have to be realistic about what you can honestly get. Too many people think that they should be the exception. Like, you're a 2 and some super hot rich guy should fall in love with you because you're nice or whatever. Not gonna happen.

Bam.

You can't look like you were abused by a toaster and expect to have a model for a date.

It's only bad when the standards are higher than yourself.

I just mean it's a bit ridiculous to expect your significant other to spend hours at the gym every day (or whatever their beauty regime includes) to look good enough for your standards, but you don't do the same for them This can go for anything, not just fitness and beauty.

I feel like if you're in a relationship with the mindset that you've settled for that person, the relationship won't be healthy. I think it's good to have high, but negotiable standards. You never know who you might fall for. Regardless, if you date that person, you should value them very highly, and they should treat you the same way!

I guess its okay as long as its attainable and realistic.

Yes, ma'am.

Nothing annoys me more than people who says such and such better have a car, job, crib, etc. Yet, you're unemployed and living home with your parents.

No, as long it's realistic

When it comes to talent, nope.

When it cones to finding love, maybe.

There is such a thing as too high a standard and some don't get that. I think there is a difference between settling and being realistic. Agree with the above about a 2 expecting a 10 but I think that goes above looks alone.
Personality,life goals etc.
