Relationships

If someone chooses not to be with partners that would not treat them well, would they still be considered lonely or be considered picky/choosy?

If you're single and the *only* partners you could possibly ever get, would be abusive, disrespectful, unfaithful, or otherwise not treat you with proper respect, and you refuse to be with someone like that and are sad to be alone because of that, would that still be considered being picky/entitled?

As in, you could be with someone and have a relationship with them, but these people would only ever be mean to you, disrespectful, polyamorous (cheating), expect you to pay them money constantly in order for them to stay with you, would not consider you a good partner, etc. They'd be using/exploiting you, but at least you'd still be with someone.

If someone chooses not to be with someone like that, are they considered picky/entitled? Or is that fair? (This applies to both genders in such a situation, but likely applies more so to men, for obvious reasons.)

I'm asking this in full good faith. I do know know what you'd call this.

It's still legitimate bad luck/loneliness in dating and you have every right to complain.
It's pickiness/entitlement because you're still choosing to reject such partners.
I don't know. / No idea.
