Now remember this the beginning of the Pandemic so there was no vaxed vs unvax filter in dating apps or discussion/views about it. Now there is a filter (Hinge)! Also we cannot forget when the pandemic caused us to lock down many women who lost their jobs or quit their jobs ran to OnlyFans to make money. So we can add more Thanos snaps to potential soulmates on both sides.
No wonder many are still searching for the possibility of finding a soulmate in NYC
The key is to have fun and stop looking for love and let it find u. It’s not impossible. If u value marriage and tradition and want a family young is best to live in states town that favor those things. But also difficult as it seems more people are married younger . Less options. I dunno. Lots of options in nyc just have to know how to play the game … I was stressed about it when I was younger lots of dates none serious , always fell for the bad guys .. now that I’m older and mature and know my worth put me anywhere and I’m bound to attract the right one . Have to be positive …

I’ve always wondered if it’s true what they say about love coming to you once you stop looking and then I try to apply that to other aspects in my life like my career. I had to work hard for it, study, apply and interview like crazy and everything to land the career/job that fit me best so how would finding love be any different, ya know?

Sometimes love comes to you when you aren't looking for it and sometimes it doesn't come at all. But meanwhile one should continue to live their life as best they can.

In theory, this would make a lot of sense, because of NYC's diversity.
I don't mean diversity in the the usual racial sense, but more broadly. Unlike a small town, you are more likely to be able to find highly cultured people, if that's what you like, or people with acerbic senses of humor, or educated pedants, or fanatical nerds, or devoted foodies, or voracious readers, plus a wide range of national origins.
The title of this topic should reflect what the article clearly says possibility
Large cities suck for relationships.
Take it from the viewpoint of a Millennial, todays women have created an environment where men have noticed that they dont need to be in a relationship to have the possibility of having sex. What this did was negativity effect women who are not part of that hookup culture or sex work now searching high and low for that man to be in a relationship with. On the other side of that coin it created allot of men who are looking for a woman who havent done anything that will make him the laughing stock when he brings her to the holiday party, or introduce her to his friends/family. It is embarrassing when anyone can subscribe for $8.99 and see everything busted wide open.
To add to this searching for a soulmate what I have personally seen in many women including ones in my family is that when they are young they invest most of their time and energy chasing higher education and competitive careers but put little to no effort into a relationship. What the end result is what I see now for many of my fellow female Millennials and Gen X, they are in the office talking about dating apps because they have no clue where the single men are, or what the single men want.
Downloading dating apps and searching is very misleading as well.
But im just one individual, with 1 viewpoint. Take it from others, jump on youtube and see what others are saying about their experiences in their city when dating. If its a woman take note of their age, weight, any excessive tattoos that cant be easily covered, abnormal hair color, and if they use pronouns. If its a man take note of his height, hairline, body type, lifestyle, employment, what hes wearing. All this plays into when *searching* and what many fail to realize is that although they may find a person that meets that long list, whoever meets that list also have a list of their own.
Shout out to West Elm Caleb who proved what many men already know, women can search but when your the man that many women are looking for *height* then you dont have to choose one and can have them all on a rotation thinking they found that soulmate.
If anyone thinks NYC is bad for dating, Maimi and LA are crazy when it comes to competing to find a partner
We both found each other on this site 10 years ago. Wow, it feels crazy to say that it's been over 10 years, but yeah. Mr. Hotel and Ms. Management lol. We did end up getting married in Vegas mainly because life threw so many curveballs at us that we gave up trying to have a wedding.
I have some Gen X friends (male and female) who are all having a tough time finding a mate. About half want to leave the city, and the other half is glued to it. One female has really antiquated views of dating (her father said the guy should always initiate the call, and I yelled at her for that one) and one male is likely too sarcastic for most. I don't think I could go through that dance again. If anything God forbid was to happen with our marriage, I would likely just be an old spinster and travel the world.
So many of these posts sound like episodes of SEX AND THE CITY.
