Why are so many single women in New York alone? (married, husband)

So I have an account with match.com and under the advice of Rachel Greenwald (author of find a Husband after 35-great book) I wanted to take a peek at women's profiles on that site. Decided to try different regions. It was interesting to note that the women in New York are very highly educated, successful, attractive and sophisticated, yet ALL of them had never been married and some were into their late 30s. Chicago women are about the same way. I think Yankee women really have a lot to offer. It seems like women in Georgia who have much less to offer (by comparison) get all the men. (I don't mean that Southern women have nothing to offer-they can sure cook and "flirt" good-I just mean that NY women were unsurpassed.) If you don't believe me, why is it that the average dumpy woman in a muu-muu at the supermarket in the "Southern world"-always has a wedding ring on? I feel bad for single women in big cities. How can they have so much to offer and be so unable to find a mate? They also check "definetely" and "someday" under "want kids?" Sad.

Those women on the sites you're talking about represent a small percentage of NY women, just as the southern women in muu-muus represent a small percentage.
If I've said this once, I've said it a thousand times...the men around here don't want real relationships, they just want to fu**, and the women want more, so we're all at an impasse, as it were.

Baby! That's why "Sex and the City"! Candace Bushnell's real life problems.
Seriously, there is such a high concentration of smart, highly-educated, looking-after-themselves women in major cities like NYC, Boston, Chicago - all the guys who are looking should go there.
And I'm speaking from experience. It took me removing myself from Boston, to finally meet someone.

Oh I know it. Been there a few times.. If my job here wasn't so cake and the economy was better I'd be in NYC in a shot, talked to some niiiiice women there.
Except Rediska, she threw her coffee at me, then sued me. Lawyers, go figure.

pretty much.
it's easier to remain single and concentrate on being successful rather than wasting time on some man-child's bs.

True that. And it's not an age thing, older, younger, they're all the same...
