I am in good shape and well-styled and make a pretty good impression on people -- not what you would call a wallflower, but does this make me not such a great catch??

Perhaps it isn't the exterior that makes one a "great catch." Are you approachable? Or do you give the impression that you're so complete that you simply don't 'need' anyone? How well you relate to other's in their sphere is important to opening other doors to intimacy. If that is what you are seeking.
Simply letting other's know all about you without identifying with them on their level can make a difference on how other's really view you. Do you appear to be 'superwoman?' Done it all? Been there? Know it all?
Try a different approach if the one you're giving off isn't getting the responses you expect should be there. Where does the opposite sex really fit in with your life right now?

It seems like you are an attractive woman and if you are good financially then you are a dream catch. It's not bad that you haven't been in a relationship for 5 years. Here's something for you. I live by a set of rules when it comes to meeting women, there's ten but here's one for you
*never date a man who has nothing to lose
basically if what he brings to the table isn't equal or above of what you have already then hes not ready OR if he isn't mature or psychologically on your level then hes not ready. But I hope you find love beacuse every good woman needs a good man and vice-versa

its only tragic if u want it to be. if not then do something about it. we r roughly the same age and i have been single for a little over a yr. being alone isn't the worse thing in the world, but being lonely sucks.
i am not sure what a wallflower is, but i am sure if u deciede to make some changes in ur life u will not have any trouble finding someone.
good luck

im like you i am 31 havent been a relationship for 10yrs and im sure as i know how to be honest trusting caring,i despise men who dont treat a lady right because i havent been given the chances in life like some have and i think geez if i was him i would never do that to someone i care for...what im saying you might be a great person not to bad on the eye,but if you dont get out often enough or when you do meet someone doesnt say they will honour you like you do them...if you are comfortable with who you are well who cares if someone thinks your a good catch or not as long as you know that you are true to your everything

First of all you need to realize that their are 100,000 women in this world that are meant for you! and only one in which will be your bride! You need to fall in love with yourself by looking in the mirror every single morning and think of yourself as a king!! and the greatest looking guy that ever lived, "EVERY MORNING!" Then get more involved in singles activities in your area, and do some traveling, like mexico, argentina, India, or even england where their is a oversized stock of single women that will overwhelm your mind! by the time your done youll know what im talking about...

Give it time. Expose yourself to situations where other singles meet. Church. Internet Chat rooms. Sports events. Keep an eye out during your daily errends, the best of relationships show up in the strangest places. The worst place: BARS. You only get people interested in meat in a meat market.
What worked for me? Other friends.
Hope this helps.

It's not that bad. I know of a hell of a lot worse than that and you are probably a good catch too. In what part of the planet do you live?

Not tragic at all, unless you're one of those people who can't enjoy their own company.
If you want to expand your circle of friends and meet potential boyfriends, get out there and get active. Volunteer, join a club, take a class, things of that nature.

Everybody's definition of a great catch is different. Perhaps you are going after the wrong guys?
