There are tons of single girls out there, especially in bit cities. Out here in LA it's easy to get dates left and right if you really want to.
With apps like POF, tinder, okc, I could have had several new dates on a weekly basis if I had the time for it. I had turn some down because of time constraints and dates with other women.
Pretty much the same thing here in NYC with those apps.
On a rare occasion, I've had like 5-6 women be into me at once, lol.
"single, never married, no kids, college educated professional women (in shape at that) in their mid 30s to mid 40s every single darn week."
I can see some combo, but all??? Especially as we get closer to mid 40? I don't think so. Do they exist, of course, but let's not kid ourselves, they ain't the low hanging fruit.
Add the 3rd or 4th tier city, what ever that means, I can only assume it means getting away from huge metro's like NYC, LA, or Chicago and it really starts to sound a bit
I'd say the same if it were a man, this isn't women bashing here, just stats.

Only limiting factor is time, energy, and perhaps at times funds.
Tomorrow is a lovely woman, from what I can tell from pics. Visiting English professor, published (several times over) author, lean runners build (marathoner), 43, never married, no kids.Last week it was a operations manager at an AI start up. People like this dot the landscape.

All those aren't uncommon. They're the norm, really, for who I meet. Who said anything about low hanging fruit. The third/fourth tier city is places like Providence (where I am now), places that are 250k and culturally decent, but not great. Still, these people are out and about and dating.
And you're stats aren't taking into account things like education and other things, absolute dealbreakers, like they're progressive. Nor take into account that parents are much less likely to date, and much less likely to live in a city. I literally have never met in my adult life a woman without at least a 4 year degree on the dating scene. Yet, if you look at stats, less than half of women have them, so out of the hundreds of dates in the last 10-15 years one would think that is impossible, but it isn't, if you only go out with my type of people, and live in a progressive large metro area which effectively means you need a professional job with a degree to afford to live. I'll leave the low hanging fruit to others.

You might be surprised; there are a lot of women who fit that description out there. But they're not women who get noticed by men. They're pretty average. Most of the ones I know aren't curvy, so they're off the radar.

Glad to see things are banging on all cylinders for you in terms of those four or five items that were listed.

Exactly. These apps create sort of a buffet for a man. It's really not difficult. You won't get every single girl, but dangit, you have to be really really bad with women to fail at the apps. They basically serve women up to you on a silver platter.

I hope the OP has better luck in the future.
Again, I don't care if someone has kids or not, its just who I meet... that is, people without kids. Meeting people, of course, is simple, meeting someone with potential for what I want who likes me as well, that's literally roughly 1 in 75 to 1 in 100. It's A LOT of first dates.

What age group are we talking? I'm not even sure a lot of people over 40 know what Tinder is.

Providence is the Bos-Wash corridor you're simply in a good area for men period. It's the best area for a single man in the country and the only megalopolis in the U.S. Are you looking for a LTR? I'm just surprised since you meet so many babes every week you don't end up sticking with one of them.
My homie was in the same boat like two weeks ago. He's 30 years old but he dates younger women. He was venting to me that there's no "good single women" and I told him that he needs to reevaluate his priorities. He places a little too much emphasis on looks and not their soul. Long story short, three days later, I encouraged him to ask this woman out on a date and he was hesitant because she wasn't drop dead gorgeous. Then i asked him what's the purpose of you venting to me when you're not going to take my advice seriously? So he manned up and asked her out. So far, things are good...
Sometimes, we have to re-prioritize what we want in the opposite sex. Not lowering our standards per se, but instead of looks and money being at the top, how about a simpler criteria-like not being bat **** crazy or at least maintaining a conversation.
