(Disclaimer: I used to work at a dating website.)

You have it backwards. A paradox of choice for females.

Men aren't picking, they're the one's pasting messages desperately to get responses. It's a hopeless situation.

Ever been to a night club? Male:Female ratio? You have any idea how much worse it is on a dating website?

It's interesting how you say I projected, I'm interested in the tendency of men to fib about their success with females.

Yes, I've seen hundreds of comments like yours, then I saw their accounts get banned out of frustration the next day.

Even if you did have success on a dating website (I have, and have had friends who married), by no means are they in favor of men.

If you need me to elaborate on the data, I can.
