I noticed some of you guys find the NYC dating scene difficult. However, at least for me its the place where I had the most success. This statement is not to brag. Rather the opposite I actually did poorly in many states and a cities that are supposed to be "easy." For instance, I lived in Las Vegas for awhile, yet was mostly unsuccesful. I did get a few dates here and there. However, nothing came out of it. I also lived in some mid-sized cities in the West Coast but more or less the same experience, a few dates here and there but no continuity.

Meanwhile, in NYC I did find two solid GF's. I wanted to know a bit more about NYC to understand what was going on. I don't want to share information about myself, however, as you guys can tell from my other posts, I'm a relatively young person.
Depends on the type of New Yorkers you are referring to
Historically - NYC Women(along with any other nyc people) generally have been seen as "high strung" and/or cynical
But as with many other things over the years this has been changing
Be advised that many people moving to or currently living in NYC - particularly in the past decade or so - are transplants from out of state
And many of the first generation/native new yorkers have been moving out of state as well
This could explain the difficulty in this situation - as well as other problems that are effecting NYC and New York in general

I too lived in NYC and dated quite often. I had no trouble meeting women, but honestly, the women in NYC seemed stressed out, and often times they just looked really worn out from working so much and trying to "make it" in the city.

I found the women in Chicago, Cleveland and central/south Florida to be overall more attractive and fun to date.

So the only difference I noticed was that the women, although there were a lot of them, weren't the best looking and seemed stressed out and over worked.

I mean sometimes I'd meet a really hot girl out at a lounge/restaurant/bar and we'd hook up, but it never really went further than that. The women I dated were subpar compared with women in other cities/countries that I've lived -- so I guess that would be the difference for me.
