Can singlehood destroy you?

It may be fun being single. But when loneliness lurks beneath the surface, that fun could be easily be misery in disguise. While the competition is stiff, to attract even a mediocre representative of the opposite sex, you have got to be above average yourself. That is the only way to stand out in a crowded market place full of single Asian women asking/demanding or in other words - begging for Mr. Right. And with so many of the men looking for their Ms Rights at the same time, it's no wonder that formulas work so well: in this chaotic match-market, love, no matter how fleeting, comes as a welcome relief from the stresses of looking, of inding and of dissappointment. There is little time and opportunity to waste on uncomfortable "get to know you" phone calls and lunches punctuated with periods of silence. For late-20 something desperados, the acid test of compatibility is "Do we come together?" or "Compatibility Partner" or "Are you the one?" and other stuff that might come along the way. I just couldn't help but thinking.... Any opinion?
