This thread alone should tell you why people have difficulties "finding" a partner.

If any form of status is a criteria, you are doomed. Think hard about that one.

I've never had any difficulties finding women in NYC for the ol' in-out.

But, I guess it's like Rod Stewart said.. Some guys have all the luck.

Here's a generic NYC girl profile off OKC. Based on my memory, they all sounded alike

1. I love the city.
2. I love life and like to laugh
3. I am trying the online thing because I am so over the bar scene or my friends convinced me to try it
4. My family and friends are important to me
5. Loves either yoga or bikram yoga
6. Has been to some rando Euro town or aspires to soon
7. Is a foodie (though it mostly involves salads only and recently kale, which is awesome)
8. Loves central park or the met museum or broadway shows
9. Hangs out with friends and coworkers
10. I'll try anything once
11. My niece is the world to me
12. My best friend is my cat.

Now pictures:
One duck face.
One either stretching in the gym or hiking atop some middle of nowhere.
One bathroom mirror or selfie.
One goofy picture with girlfriends.
One picture with coworkers.
Dog or cat pic.

I like those stretching in the gym pics... and the bathroom selfies.

I am a real estate agent and always ask my clients who are couples how they met. 90 percent of the time, they met on-line - eharmony, jdate, match.com. We live in a web-based society, so even in the most engaging and entertaining city in the world, people meet while staring at a computer screen. It seems to be a successful way to meet a good life partner.

let's focus on the topic guys, not just ourselves,we can talk about people around us. What do people over 30 think about having kids? if people are so busy with limited time, how can people find their partners?? Is there not enough time for them to meet or date them?? or are there many people would like to find a partner out of Ny or a partner who is not the native?
