Based on you said, it sounded kindda really pretty pessimitic.
Do you mean that supply does not meet demand (in aj context) for the minority groups?
But can't demand actually be part of the supply itself?
As you said, everyone wants someone special. Why can't "that" everyone be someone's else special?
Example: GuyX wanna find someone special. But can't GuyX be that someone special for GuyY (who is also looking for someone special)?
But for that matter, it appears to me that GuyY is more like an outcast?
Hmm. Mabye you're right? Many people settle for less, or lower down their expectations because "good" guys/girls are hard-to-find.
But how do you define "good"? I will totally understand if it is defined in terms of character/personality. But if it is in terms of beauty, yet beauty lies in the eye of the beholder.
And so it's back to what I said in the beginning that everyone has their own fair share in the market.
I admit that I don't have evidence to support my claim about "there is a someone out there for every person".
Yet, I made my assumption based on the number of ajs in the world, rather than just in Singapore alone.
Don't you personally feel that there is really just someone out there who will appreciate who you are?
As much as how the Singapore culture may seem superficial, the same theory is not relevant to other national cultures.
One's expectation has got to be realistic, and one has to aware of his/her own limitations.
If everyone wanna get attached to some Prince/Princess, then don't you think it may be really wishful thinking? If every chub (in your example) wanna dream for the impossible, then he/she will never be able to get what he/she wants.
I'm not sure if I'm getting out of point.
I didn't make the statement so that it will help me sleep at night, or believe that the world is not a pleasant place.
Becuase I've always believe that God (in general, not associated with any religion) has everything planned every one of
And judging by the number of people around who also have no one to appreciate them, it's more likely to be wishful thinking.
Will it be possible that that "someone" has not really appeared yet?
Of course everyone dreams of their own Prince or Princess - it sounds like you're saying that if my body is not the same as yours, then I'm not entitled to dream of the same kind of Prince as you, because it wouldn't be realistic.My meaning of Prince/Princess refers to someone from the Royal family. It is just an example

As much as I wish to answer your question, I could not speak for everybody.
The basis of "there is a someone for every person" is the feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best i.e. HOPE.
And the definition of HOPE is not DREAMIt depends on whether the person is actively or passively "hoping". Take this example - If one is just to sit down and do nothing while waiting for money to fall down from the sky, IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. I would say this is called "hopelessly waiting

And don't you see rather odd looking couples around (regardless str8 or ajs)??
Obsese people will always have a group of chub chasers around them.
Skinny people will also have their own "market".
And the same goes for all other type of "body" groups.

It may not be in the equilibrium point. But there will always be supply created as time passes. :)
Hope you had a great weekend. These few days had been so depressing for me. Too many sad things happening around my friends. Sigh.

Sorry if I don't make any sense. :S
