Just forget about it. An alpha man wants a trophy wife. And the others, well, do you want them? You are giving them all (all of them!) way too much power. They're just men and, strictly speaking, unnecessary to your happiness.
You really sound like a whiner, frankly. It's okay to nurse delusions as long as you know they are delusions and you can put them away after an hour or so of reverie.
Why stand around all night and wait for something anyway. The best thing to do with men is make fun of them. They eat that shit up.
And Cary, on that note, it's boring to see you posting letters about women who can't get dates. That story is so tired. We (Salon readers) are adults, mostly. Do you get some perverse pleasure knowing that it sucks to be a woman still entranced by delusions of romance and white knights? Come on. Your advice is cheap. And the "problem" at hand is stale. NEWS FLASH: A man is a man is a man. An alpha man even more so. And ladies, you know damn well you can get a date with the non-alpha dudes. So stop trying to sucker us with your sobby wobbies.
Aw, well. Piss off.
