Comparing myself to other guys is a problem I (30 yo male) seem to be having.

The other day I was at the store. I see a rather good-looking female with a guy who looks poorly dressed, below-average looks, etc.
It seems as if this happens a lot whenever I go out.

I don't begrudge the guy but I can't help but think, "What is he doing that I'm not?" or "How come I'm single while this other guy is with a fine woman?"

I don't like this kind of thinking.
What am I missing here?
