You're lucky. For me, attractive, sexy, intelligent, available, AND interested in me were mutually exclusive qualities.

Well, intelligent and attractive are two separate qualities. So the number of women of appropriate age who posess both them is less than half. Then subract those who are married or in relationships. And of those who are left who are not in relationships, subract those who are too emotioanlly messed up to be in relationships. And then cross off those who are into short guys if you are tall, or have some other requirement for men that you don't fit.
Still, after doing all that math, I figured there was still someone out there for me. I just hoped she didn't live in Madagascar.
