Quote from William Rennick:
Women like strength and the fact you are on here asking for advice reminds one of those "Dear Woman" fellas. Before getting too analytical about this why don't you post your pic? Once we determine your looks aren't the problem we can move on to other reasons..
Dr. Phil Rennick out 
Dr. Phil Rennick,
Wait a minute... when did I ask for anything? I simply explained my observations, and because I am an analitycal person, psychoanalysis is enjoyable. This forum works one way; you put what you want on the table and people take it or leave it. It's only logical...
I don't feel comfortable posting a picture, but I am 98.99% sure that I am above average looking. Again I have been told by plenty of female friends and family as well as random women and coworkers that I am 'good looking or handsome or cute.'
Quote from Zr1Trader:
Dating in general just gets harder after you're 25 compared to how easy it used to be in highschool and college.
Past 25 most girls are already in a long term relationship ,engaged, had a kid already, married, divorced already l or if they are single they are most likely fat, have seriouse psychotic issues , or unwanted by other men for whatever reason.
Id say your best chances of finding a decent one would be through mutual friends or through filtering out the girls with baggage on match.com or something like that. I'm sure there are 50 guys for every one girl on there though so you better have something good to offer.
I'd say the biggest thing going against you in the dating department is the whole male nurse thing. Even though you are probably an awesome guy and good for a long term relationship I can just see a group of girls laughing among each other at the prospect of dating a male nurse. It's going to be hard to find that special girl that doesn't mind. Girls are hardwired to want a MANLY MAN. If you were a DR. instead you'd have way less of a problem lol. Kind of sad but just the way it is.
Would you want to date a woman truck driver?
Be patient, don't rush it, there is someone for everyone. Who knows you may meet your future ex wife tomorrow 
ZrT, all your points are good ones and ones I've experienced. That's what I'm most concerned about. Anyone that I'm even close to attracted to is unavaialble usually because of marriage or serious relationship. Even girl who is ok looking (but very good body), with child, divoriced, is in a serious relationship @ 36... NOT THAT I WANT SOMEONE WITH ALL THIS AS I'M NO WHERE NEAR THAT STAGE... I'm just saying....
Statement about where to find a girl is what I've read as well... Basically most poeople meet their partner thru friends... and well I'm working on that, I don't necessarily have the freshest social network... Usually I enjoy quality over quantity.
I have done experiement and (even though there are more women on this planet then men) the thing about 50:1 is exactly my problem. I once created a fake profile of a girl I thought was attractive. I had over 100 messages from guys on a free dating site in less than a few days. When I log online, men would spam me with PMs... lmao...
I understand the nurse thing... not going to be a nurse much longer actually (not really b/c of the girl problem). I am going to try to get back to graduate school for a couple reasons. Of course I want a career change, more money earning potential, and TO FIND A GIRL!!! Other thing is I will always be a trader till the day I die. Won't give in till I'm wealthy or dead.
Good point about the female truck driver.... but again from male perspective IFF she were smoking hot I wouldn't give a damn
Quote from pennystocker:
Try european or south american dating sites. Or Australia. WIden your search. It's worth it. Don't give up.
This is something i've thought a lot about... But easier said then done b/c I have job constraints... read something a while ago about how much more sense it makes to go abroad. The main theme was the fact that women have been promoted as becoming pants wearers in the west, wereas elsewhere they are still mainly meant for home making. This in theory makes for a better relationships. I plan on spain/brazil in the future as time permits; I'm near fluent spanish.

I agree with Rennick.
Let's start breaking this down.
BTW--Rennick 'knows' things. He is also a man's man and has done and seen more things than 99% of the poster's here.
I think he could properly analyze this and break it down and have you on track shortly.
peace

I always respect age, as USUALLY it comes with wisdom... but posting a picture I assure u is Unnecessary!!! not only that, looks I can't really change, there is no need for me to go to plastic surgeon I guarantee you.
I will describe myself: 5'10", 150 bls (yes I'm thin), active runner, on a good day I can do 25+ consecutive pullups, 70 pushups per min, 70 situps per min (so very muscular for my size, I'm 'ripped' but thin), dark hair and eyes, no balding, straight teeth (from braces) no decay/cavities, darker than average white person tanned skin, half italian/half german, I have italian nose (slightly big) but face is very symetrical. A girl once said I look like tom cruise (I have similar features - big nose, dark hair/eyes, big eyebrows)
