Probably not exactly. Too many people think they "deserve" someone in their minds who are nearly perfect, no matter where they themselves are on the people scale, assuming there is one.
Men here on Quora have said they would not date an overweight woman even though they are overweight, for example.
That said, there are tons of people who are with someone you'd never expect for reasons we won't understand.
My best advice is to upgrade yourself and if you feel emotionally down about dating, then take your time and be picky. Only see women who bring you joy and show that they like you and are a good risk.
