I agree, outside of NYC women are much more friendlier. What I don't understand is that NYC is has much more women than men and the women here are less friendlier compared to out parts of America where they are higher populations of men and less women and still the women are friendlier and easy to talk with.

Well if he's announcing $80K the ones who are looking for money are going to send him back to the minors. Also you gotta be a little subtle; flourishing the Goldman-Sachs corporate card, for instance.
Being short sucks period. Lately I have been seeing plenty of short men with similar heighted women or slightly taller, but then again these folks probably come from similar ethnic backgrounds or income brackets. Any black colored credit card will do.

They want something more and to explore how far their wings can carry on their own...nothing wrong with that but from the perspective of a man who wants a simple life and settle down this is the worst kind of woman and the most difficult to catch.

I concur with this. Like you I'm not asking for much, just want to simple things in life, women do make things complicated especially NY women.

If you are even a remotely attractive woman living in a crowded city like NYC, you are going to be hit on by an overwhelming number of men every day if you do not put up some kind of wall. I have not found NYC women to be less friendly than other women - they just tend to be a little more discriminating with who they want to hook up with.

Why would an attractive woman make herself even more attractive by dressing in a provocative way if she doesn't like the attention? And when she gets the attention she tries to look offended. She thrive on that everyday attention. If you dress like that you can't choose who you attract so you're going to get a lot of unwanted attention on the side.

Why do so many guys post this same type of thread every few weeks? Read the hundred other threads that all address the same issue and glean some pearls of wisdom there, or go to OKCupid. It is incredibly irritating when yet another sad sack wants to whine about how he can't get a date--it always, *always* turns into a sh**show of misogyny.

WOW ! What tacky behavior on her part.
I can understand wanting to steer clear of con-artist types, but this is always evident right away.
No need for documentation.

From a NY woman.... personally, I don't care what your income is, what you drive or what your credit score is. Be interesting, ie have interests that are similar to mine. Take care of yourself - I don't care about designer labels and can't tell the difference between Hugo Boss and Old Navy, but whatever you're wearing, fill it out with a body - exercise, lift weights. Be aware of current events and have a social/political opinion that's in tune with mine.

Just like friends, dates/mates need to be people we have common interests with and can talk to.

Just my 2 cents.

I think it is easier to say "I am short" or "I do not earn enough money" than it is to admit, "I am not very interesting ..."

A bit about myself...

I am tall (above 6 feet), 23 years old. Net income is around $80,000 after all my bonuses are accounted for. This is just a prerequisite to even speak to some of the women in this city.

Women judge you based on a three level system:

1.) Is he attractive?
2.) How does he look? Does he dress as if he has a good-paying job? Note: You can be attractive, but generally, women do not date below their economic class in this city.
3.) Can he convince me to want to date/see him?


YES. There are more women in NYC than there are men. HOWEVER, a large majority of the men in the city do not meet the standards of the majority of the women in the city ie.. too short, dont make enough money, not enough status, etc.

So how do you date women in New York? Be attractive, have a good job, have some game.

Most women in any U.S. state want a good looking guy with a good job. Just like most men want a pretty woman that can cook him a hot meal.

Transplant women generally look for the things I have bolded. WHen it comes to dating in NYC Transplant women and Native Women are two different specimens kind of like apples and oranges.
