your dating cheklist, too long?

this piggybacks the previous post. ok, you're 30, dating or not, but still single.....should you start to compromise a few of your standards of what you're looking for in a significant other??? are your standards too unattainable??? are your standards so important you wont mind being single for another 1, 5, 10 years???....just something to think about BlogLand, i have a few more years, thank God.
