This is a pretty simple psych phenomenon. When you're denied something, you tend to remember the times it's offered more. Let's say you just turned vegan or something, you're gonna remember every single time someone offers you a steak. In this case, the married dude is obviously gonna remember the times he's approached by girls more often than the times this happened as a single male. Its because our brains are'nt too good at real-world frequency measurements. Plus, its kind of a proven fact that men overestimate their chances with women, in basclly every setting. It's a survival thing cuz those cave men who didnt roll the dice never lived to spread their seed.
That could very well be the case. I notice this with cars too. When I get a certain model of car, all of a sudden I notice just how many of those vehicles are on the road.
