Is it just me ????? (Denver, Fort Collins: transplants, university, campus)

[krh6609]

Honestly now, I need some thoughts..... Is there a huge disconnect for singles in the Fort Collins area? Unless you're under 25 and involved in the college scene, the general atmosphere seems to be pretty sterile! i know a lot of us are transplants with few networking abilities, but I rarely even hear about new relationships beginning. Enough whining...... I'd love your input if you dare.

No,I agree with you it is like being in time warp (smile) if it exist nobody is talking about it is just like you said sterile,blank

There's probably some truth to this -- with a town so focused on a university, sometimes there's a bit of a drop-off gap after that age (somewhere in the mid-20s), at least for the single population. I think you'll find a similar thing going on in a lot of campus oriented towns.

You may be happier in Denver, where there's more going on, especially for the post-college age group.

Yes. Most if not all true "college towns" (i.e. not Boston which is called America's largest college town, but it is actually a city with lots of colleges, not the same thing) are not good places for older singles who want to find somebody.
