According to a new study in the journal of Psychology of Men & Masculinity, if a guy is modest, shy and not assertive, he’s probably single.

The three female researchers showed more than 200 people videotapes of a man and a woman applying for a job as a computer lab manager. The male and female actors both followed the same script in the mocked-up interview and were equally humble about their achievements. The volunteers were asked to rate them for modesty, likeability and a range of other factors.
