Ok so I want to move out of my crappy small town and go live it up for a while. I am looking at Vegas as one of the places I may come to. I am a single male and one of my big things is to be able to go to a place where it is easy to meet single girls who are adventurous and spontaneous.

Anyway the stereotype for vegas is a lot of nightlife that is going 24/7, a lot of people coming and going, lots of hotels and casino's ect. So to me this just seems like a good place for a single man looking for some casual escapades and a service industry job. I figure move in with some roomates in one of those little community places with a pool, work at a restaurant or casino or some sort of service industry -- and date girls in my free time.

So whats up with this place, is it really as awesome as it is made out to be for single people looking for a little fun? Keep in mind Im not moving here to settle down or get a career, or grow as a person. I am here to have an experience and have some fun until I tire of the action and need something more down to earth. Thanks for the honest feedback guys.

Cool man. I'm not trying to be a troll, just asking a simple question. I don't live there, so I don't know.

Yeah that is a little harsh,but I can sort of see where your coming from.Vegas is not all beer,24/7,dudes on girls and all the other stuff like that.When you look down to it there are millions of other aspects that make LV like all the other mid-sized(or large depending on where your from) cities out there.

I think if your an outgoing guy and knows how to pick up the ladies, you will have no problem. The only thing that you might lack is $$$$. A lot of young ladies are into guys with $$$, so if your on a budget you might be limited to the kind of party scene you might want. The nightlife here can cost an arm and a leg, then you have to buy drinks that cost an arm and a leg..etc.. Get my drift?

Well that's what Im looking for man. I just want to hear from people who go out and enjoy the nightlife and enjoy the strip. I want to see what they think about the entertainment options, the nightlife, and the level of difficulty for meeting girls in this city. Im not here to bash Las Vegas, Im here because I like the sounds of it, sounds like a lot of adventure and fun to me, which is what Im looking for.

Obviously if your not looking for that sort of thing 24/7 you can get away from it, im not suggesting you can't -- but I would be likely to be drawn towards it quite a bit and want to make sure it would live up to the hype. That's all this is about.

Well I would assume that Vegas would certainly have it's share of gold diggers, but I also would assume that Vegas would have a lot of girls who are visiting for a couple days and are out to have some "fun" while they are in town.

Im the kind of guy who will talk to anyone even if I dont know them, Im wondering how the culture in Vegas responds to that. My experience is that tourist towns are abundant with fun outgoing and happy people on vacation and from my understanding Vegas (unlike other tourist area's) is in season 24/7 365 days a year. So on paper it "seems" like a great experience that can be fun and relatively easy to meet new people.

It sounds like getting a job in the service industry would be easy enough for me to do, but of course I am not going to be "rich". My expectation is I wouldnt have to be rich to meet girls or to find some entertainment or fun in Vegas. I've heard of free outdoor concerts, and I don't imagine the casino's themselves charge covers -- so someone would assume it would be reasonable to be able to explore the city without necessarily having to lose your life savings (unless you have a gambling problem). If I am off in this assumption please let me know.

I figure if I live relatively close to the city and cab it there and back (if I have had anything to drink), and stick to just a couple of drinks while I am out, that I could make a relatively fun experience out of any night on the strip with less than 100 bucks -- is that accurate?

Although I do not live in Vegas (Yet) but to visit frequently due to having family there, I can say this. In my opinion the Vegas that most people invision that have never been there is the "strip"...Having been at several of the night clubs as well as other areas on the "strip" I can say that it is an area that would be attractive to a single male/female. The clubs are very classy, upbeat ect...BUT understand this is not all Vegas is about...Outlining areas are like other larger cities. I would suggest visiting the Vegas Strip, paln a night out to the clubs and see what you think. The Vegas night life is in a league of its own...

It's been a while since I was single, but I have a feeling it hasn't changed all that much. In my experience this town is not a good place to be single. It can be very lonesome for a single person. For one thing you can't really trust or depend on anyone you picked up in a bar, nor do they trust you. I got lucky some of the time but usually the good looking girls in a casino are being hit on at an average of about 27 times an hour and tend to ignore you. They are not standing around wondering whose bed they will wake up in in the morning just because they work in the service industry in Las Vegas. And if they are like that, they know that they don't need some working stiff to show them a good time. There is always some high roller with a lot better looks and a lot more money just around the corner. I had a lot more social life in my home town of 30,000 people than I have ever had in Las Vegas and I'm practically a native now. You are right when you say that is the Las Vegas stereotype. You are probably a very nice person but I gotta say that your post makes you sound immature and shallow. Stay where you are, meet a nice girl, and you'll probably have a much better life. What you're asking for by your post is trouble. Just MHO.

Well thanks for the advice man and I do appreciate it, but Im not ready to settle down right now, Im looking for a fun place to move to and to get out of this boring small town where all the girls want to do is get married and find someone to help support their 4 kids. There are no jobs here and no tourism to make quick cash. I went down to Martha's Vinyard last summer (a small island off the cape of Massachusettes) and had more fun than I ever have here, by far. Im simply looking for a favorable place to live and have fun for a single guy. I can see some validity in your advice that there are always dudes with more money or better looks than me kicking around but I tend to be outgoing so I would think i could put myself in the right place in the right time from time to time.
