I notice a lot of fat women posting shit like this, as though they're constantly fighting off the advances of men under 6'.  It's exactly as you say: they want to pretend they're single because their standards are just too damn high. I saw an episode of Oprah once where a fat cow presented her list of "must haves" for a man.  It included not just being over 6'2", but being in shape, having great teeth, not drinking, dancing well, cooking well, being chivalrous, and -- wait for it -- being a millionaire.  And that wasn't even the whole list. To be fair, it isn't just women who do this, either.  I've seen plenty of posts from male hambeasts bemoaning the fact that all they can get is fat chicks, because "I want to be with someone I'm attracted to."  Go to any PUA forum and eventually you'll find some fatty talking about how his goal is to fuck 8s, 9s and 10s. Yeah, good luck with that.
