Meet Jerome, Lamant, and Marcus. These single men are strangers to each other, but share one thing in common: their high-maintenance needs drive women away.

Jerome Hart's ideal relationship is not to be in one. He has no intention of slowing down his bed-hopping, fast-lane ways. He enjoys his single life.

Twenty-eight-year-old Lamant James is busy as usual, figuring out how to balance working sixty hours a week as an investment banker, searching for his ideal mate, and fulfilling his dream of becoming a writer. Women have to meet twenty-nine essentials for mating to fit into his rigid dating inbox. And not surprisingly, he hasn't found the right one yet.

Recently divorced forty-year-old Marcus Hill would prefer a not-so-desperate housewife mail-ordered and shipped from the 1950s. He never saw his divorce coming, due to his belief that he was a super-duper husband.

Why their ideal women are so hard to find is beyond any of them. The possibility of changing themselves is unthinkable. Can they evolve, or face ending up alone?
