misestopieces Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I have the very good fortune to be able to make a good living working from home via the internet. I take advantage of this and visit different cities every few weeks. I sublet a space or get a hotel deal and try places on for size, always on the lookout for a city or town that I'd like to call my permanent home. I used link removed and OKCupid as tests for the kinds of places that would be good for me to date in. I find that in certain cities I get absolutely zero attention, in others I get some attention, but there are are a couple of cities where I get dozens of very good looking dating contacts. I discovered what I think is the absolutely best dating city for me right now. I have a different date every night. I don't say this to brag and I know it will slow down. I'm just amazed at how un-dateable I felt in other places and how I'm having this amazing success here. I think I have clear proof that one just needs to find the right venue for oneself. The internet helps immensely! There are other factors I consider in choosing the cities I try out, but obviously being able to date there is a huge consideration. No matter how perfect a town is otherwise, it will really stink if you just can't attract dating partners. Link to comment
motley802 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Are you planning to relocate to different city for online dating reasons? Yes some cities have lot of people logged in. But you'll get equally stiff competition from other guys who are also trying online dating. So think about it wisely. Link to comment
thejigsup Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I lived in the Mid West for a year or so and dating seems easy there. People weren't very picky. Plain looking people got dates all the time. I was born and raised in So Cal and it is tough for guys here. You have to have looks, money, and a great career to get the top notch women. I lived in the South for awhile and that seems about the best place to date. People were very open and friendly. I am a female and I have lived in all of these places and never had a problem dating, but for guys, I think the South is the best area. Link to comment
buddha55 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 seattle and portland are horrible cities for dating... and a decent size... Link to comment
Ariel85 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I'm not sure I would move to a city based on being able to get a series of first dates. In fact, if I were looking for a relationship or marriage, I'd probably take the amount of casual dates available to be a detraction. Link to comment
