Wait a minute... she is single too, right!? RIGHT!?!?

Actually that's what I understood the comic meme was about.
I thought he just got upset by her saying she's not good about herself. You know, like "Come on, don't say that!"

Just shows how well I can understand everything...

I like how you and the person you were answering to think. It opened a new perspective for me and showed me my bias. Thank you. Please continue to understand things that well and let others know about it. 😀

I like how incredibly wholesome your comment is.

Also I agree. I hadn't thought about either of those things but I like the perspectives.

The classic gender stereotypical joke is that women are selfish, so she doesn't "see" him (as a viable partner) bc while he's there, he's not "one of the good ones". Then, regardless of whether he is and she simply does not see it, or perhaps he is legit not, either way he's upset at her brazenness - like even if it were true, why rub it in his face like that? Just keep those kinds of thoughts to herself!

With a comment like that, she ain't one the good ones.
