Guy Update
Valley Guy (this jackss) sent me an email wanting to know how I am doing. Well, I was mighty fine before I received that infuriating email. How dare that guy contact me???? I shouldn't let him pss me off, but come on!
I found this blog through a post on WTANGISF, and after reading a number of entries, I gotta say: I am not at all surprised that you can't find a guy. The entries on this blog paint the portrait of a woman who is unbelievably condescending, narcissistic, judgmental, shallow, rude, and self-entitled.
Granted, much of your vitriol is directed at some genuinely douchey guys you've dated, but you also express a great deal of mocking disdain towards a number of men who by your own description are legitimately nice and genuinely want to get to know you. Their only crime seems to be that they possess some ridiculously unimportant "flaw" that is a automatic dealbreaker for you ("too short" "didn't go to a good enough college", etc).
You also seem to have an irrationally supreme belief in your own universal appeal to the opposite sex - even in one entry assuming without question that you could immediately break up an existing couple (Surfer Guy and his girlfriend), despite knowing next to nothing about the state of their relationship. Do you really consider yourself such an catch that any man would just leave his existing partner for a chance with you? You sound like, (to paraphrase Samuel Snodgrass), a 7 who thinks she's a 10.
The difference between your site and WTANGISF is the latter is a satire of the tropes that people in SF complain about dating-wise. Much of it rings true but it's meant to be tongue-in-cheek and humorous. The reality is that there are plenty of great girls (and guys) to be found here, which is why so many of them are already paired up. The reason you're having so much trouble is because you are competing with girls who are, frankly, better/nicer people than you are. Make a better effort to be respectful and open-minded to others and you might land yourself a partner.
