Your logic is fine, but it's missing what I think is a major factor.

For some people, they would rather live thinking the reason they don't have a girlfriend is because they either don't want one, or admit they are too scared to ask someone out. The moment you start asking girls out and getting rejected, that game is over. Then the realization hits, that you really aren't all that attractive, or rather you are too poor socially to connect with most people.

It's a lot easier to sabotage yourself and live in denial than to realize the "truth", which is really just a lack of confidence.
