Has anybody realized that the Phrase "There's plenty of more fish in the sea" is just false?

I remember listening to a podcast called "This american life" and in one of the intros to one of their episodes related to "Love" or "Valentines Day", they interviewed physicists and they considered an equation in physics called "The Drake Equation" and it's essentially a way to guess if there really is life outside of our galaxy.

One of the people they interviewed was a Hardvard Physicist and she said she wanted somebody that made just as much as her, while having the level of education as her and must be taller than her (she's tall) and must have the same IQ as her or within a certain range and must be good looking and live within her area.

Through this equation//model , they ended up concluding that nobody like that existed.

AND JUST LIKE THAT, her pool went down to zero. There was literally nobody or the probability of finding this person is zero (confident that they'll not be able to find this person).

I often think back to this podcast and everybody has these wants and desires. And you might actually end up finding this person which is great but at the end of the day, they need to like you as well and that's the part that kind of just sucks. They not only need to like you but there's this "fun parts" that need to "match" as well.

Maybe their sexuality isn't matching towards your sexuality or your fun parts don't satisfy their fun parts or whatever. Things just don't stop and that's the part that also sucks.

It's kind of a miracle anybody kind of just finds anybody. I don't think i'm going to find anybody because there are conditions like:

must be vegan, must be lazy, must have at least an average IQ, must be kind, must have our chemistry be good together, etc. There's so many variables that people have and that I have. =/

Dating Sucks.

edit: Oh wow I actually found the episode! This american life episode - Prologue . I'm surprised! What the episode says might not match exactly what they said.
