I have figured out something creepy. Hear me out before I give my conclusion. I have tried to figure out the chances of mutual attraction between two people in a semi-isolated area (a school, campus, etc.) I used myself as the subject since I am of average looks, have no weird personality faults that the average girl would be aware of lol, etc. I have been rejected or the like wise 12 times with a 0% success rate. Assuming the next girl I liked had mutual attraction, this would make the ratio for the average person 1/13- meaning that 1/13 people should be in a relationship (the two figures are directly proportional). Why, then are about 1/4 of the people in a campus, school, etc. in relationships (I am discounting long-distance relationships- they skew the result). There must be some hidden factor that I am not aware of. I really want to discover it. The discrepancy is WAY two high between the two ratios for it to be error. Any thought?

you need to take into account that some people are just naturaly talented with the opposite sex, therefore they have a much higher success ratio, aalso you should take into account the ammount of rejections those in relationships went through before their relationship. there are way too many factors to be able to show this as a mathematical proof, plus maybe its your choice in women, some people are plain ugly and will date ugly people some people will date just to be dating, etc...too many factors dude
