I am going to talk to my sister about moving out the next time I see her. I think she will be disappointed leaving Wyoming because she truly wanted settle down and find love. My sister did live in Cheyenne briefly, she mentioned the dating scene was a bit better. I am however starting to worry for her safety especially after she told me about the attempted sexual assault.

Lol where the married men hang out... because their wives won't let them go to the bar.

Please tell me the towns so I can never move there.

If she likes small "out-west" type towns, she can try Montana or Colorado. But she should pick a town that's big enough to have a decent-sized dating pool her age that's diverse, and not all about the resource extraction industry.

I've talked her about moving to Montana. It's a bigger state with more things to do and has a more diverse economy. I'm sure it's similar to Wyoming in beauty as well.

Hello, I need some relationship advice for my younger sister. My younger sister is in her mid twenties and lives a blue collar city with a lopesided gender ratio. The fact that there are so many more men than women has turned the dating scene where she lives into a nightmare.

For starters because there is a shortage of women and young women especially, there is a huge stripper scene as well as underground prostitution industry. My sister says it's impossible to meet a man where she lives that doesn't sleep with strippers or prositutes on a semi regular basis. All her single male friends and coworkers are pretty open about doing this as well. My sister has OCD and it makes physically ill thinking being with a man that was with a Prositute.
My sister says when she goes out at night that bars are basically filled with men. She says she doesn't feel comfortable approaching any of the men in bars because they are usually hangout in groups. The times she has approached a group of men they have given her a dirty look or just ignored her. She says that at most bars the men prefer to hangout with each other doing guy stuff like drinking beer, watching sport, or playing a game of pool then talk to women. The only women in these bars are the waitresses/bartenders or really skanky looking females. Often times there will females that don't fit those descriptions that are in the bars but usually only for a short period of time before leaving.

My sister also says that the only time she does gets approach it would be by very creepy or homeless looking men. In the six months my sister has lived in this place she has been solicited for prostitution by very creepy looking men, had several homeless looking men follow her around yelling obscenities and one men atttempt to sexually assault her(luckily a male friend scared him off). My sister says she never gets approached by any normal men, every guy that has approached her has been off in someway or another.

So what would you do if you were in my sister' position? She can't leave this city yet and actually enjoys her job there. It's just the dating scene that has been terrible. Have any women experienced living in a predominantly male blue collar town before? If so, how did you guys survive the dating scene?
Moving doesn't sound like it will help your sister. If she lives in a community that is predominantly male and she can't get hit on then the problem is her. Sorry shug, not to sound harsh but if she is unattractive in whatever way her geographical location isn't going to help her. In a situation with men a plenty, an attractive women, be it by means of looks or personality, should have no problem getting a man.

So what's more important, a good job or a stiffie?
