Why are ALL of my NYC friends always single?
Date: June 25th, 2008 10:04 PM Author: Sable boistinker I know lots of great people who moved to NYC after college, guys and girls. Great people, good looking, with great jobs. Yet EVERY single one of them are pretty much always single, even well into their 30s. Sure, going out and hooking up is fun for a while, but the game gets old eventually and it would seem that intelligent, good people would eventually want to settle down. Several of these friends have even lamented how they have pretty much lost hope of finding anyone to settle down with in NYC, because of the whole "there's always something better for me out there" mentality among everyone in the city. But they can't leave because they have good jobs.
Seriously, what is it about NYC that makes everyone perpetually single? |

|
Date: June 26th, 2008 3:31 AM Author: bipolar stimulating hell Just what you said, the "there's always something better for me out there" mentality. It's partly high population, partly that the city's reputation attracts a lot of strivers or artsy types who are less interested in marriage and children than the average person, and partly that people are surrounded by a lot of other people with the same mentality and don't feel any peer group pressure to settle down until they're well into their 30s. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=829177&forum_id=2#9921293) |
Date: June 25th, 2008 10:38 PM Author: Fuchsia House Let's break this down issue by issue.
First, why do people get married? Companionship and to raise families.
1. It's extremely expensive and difficult for most people to raise families in New York before their early thirties, especially given the high standards working professionals typically expect of themselves. Ask your typical 28 year old professional in NY if she wants to raise kids in her 1-BR apt or her share, chances are that's simply a non-starter. If she wants to be a stay at home mom, her husband typically won't be able to afford a suitable apartment until he is in his 30s. However, a lot of women her age are rearing children in the burbs. Most professionals in NY want to establish their careers, which means working til the early 30's without children. Then, they can afford all of the stuff NYers deem is necessary to raise children (the apartment, nannies, preschools, etc). I know some hardy folks who have kids at 29 or 30, but those are pioneers and few and far between. Even the people I know from college who are getting married at 25 or so don't plan on having kids in the near future in NY.
2. Given that its impractical to raise families until later, the other reason for marriage is companionship, love, sex, etc. In NY, there are hundreds of thousands of eligible people, and this pool of people change frequently. In addition, there are thousands of things to do on dates, new restaurants, new shows, etc. A lot of women in NY are simply date whores, and a lot of dudes in NY are simply variety whores. It takes a hearty couple that pays attention to and goes out to all of the new restaurants, attractions, etc if you are married. Falling into a routine in NY for a number of years doesn't make much sense.

|
Date: June 25th, 2008 10:56 PM Author: indigo aromatic lettuce casino your analysis makes sense. nyc is expensive, so it doesn't make sense from a cost-benefit perspective to have kids or get married at age 27. i've noticed that there's so many couples here in chicago. most attractive girls i've met or talked to are either engaged or in serious relationships. and they're all under 25!
what do you mean by the pool of eligible people changing frequently in nyc? |
|
Date: June 25th, 2008 11:04 PM Author: Fuchsia House There are always people moving into and moving out of the city. I have been here three years after college working in finance. I am noticing an influx of 1st year law associates and summer associates from my college class. A whole new set of women are moving in. Also, new MBA grads move in every year. Just a constant rotation of people which means there are new opportunities to date. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=829177&forum_id=2#9920939) |

|
Date: June 26th, 2008 12:05 PM Author: Drab hominid macaca Never forget that New York has an enormous surplus of single women. There are 200,000 more single women in NYC than men. For men who are making decent money, there are a lot of eligible mates.

Date: June 26th, 2008 9:35 AM Author: Transparent Irradiated Useless Brakes Theater From what I've seen, people tend to be pickier than other cities. I'm guilty of it myself here.
I can find the smallest reason to reject someone because there's always someone else around the corner. Also, people don't tend to settle down here until their 30's and there isn't pressure to do so.
There's a stigma attached to being 30 and single in other cities that just doesn't attach in NYC. |

How does Chicago feel "small" when manhattan is a tiny 23 square mile island? |
|
Date: June 26th, 2008 10:31 AM Author: Transparent Irradiated Useless Brakes Theater Sigh. I never agreed on the 99% number. Like most things, you deal with the middle 50% and I am talking the high end.
NYC women are much more into the high end shopping and boutiques. I've pointed this out before.
There is a reason that I know more about the fashion scene in NYC than I care to admit, but I have been way too involved in it than is warranted by someone that isn't in the in the industry. |

Date: June 26th, 2008 1:08 PM Author: Purple theater stage Yes, there are far fewer single women in LA. LA has the largest deficit of single women in the country (it's hard to believe... I would expect it to be Anchorage or something, not a major city that has an entertainment industry that attracts lots of women). Also, I think people in LA are just better looking. Hot people go there to work in entertainment, people work out and tan more and plastic surgery is more prevalent. I also think people may be judged on their looks more there whereas people are judged by their money more in NY, since there aren't that many beautiful people here. Even if you're a guy with a decent salary in LA, it might be hard to compete with the 5 Brad Pitt lookalikes who are competing with you for women.

BTW, I didn't mean to say that NYC nightlife was "shitty." I misspoke. I meant to say that I didn't think it was worth how expensive it is. The amount of fun that I have in NYC is not astronomically greater than the amount of fun I've had in other random cities like Phoenix, Chicago, D.C. or Vegas and these other places are cheaper. |
|
Date: June 26th, 2008 1:51 PM Author: Transparent Irradiated Useless Brakes Theater I tend to agree. I'm always shocked at how much cheaper it is in other cities. It's really about who you are with more than the venue.

All the same: I've been there, I've stayed there until quite late, and while the music and the atmosphere are of high quality, it is not vastly more entertaining than any number of other bars. |

Btw, hoping they will have fun later? I thought this was the hottest place in town. How many contradictions are you going to make, friend? |

Date: June 26th, 2008 3:21 PM Author: Tantric Tank Crackhouse That is exactly what i'm saying. I know you don't ever interact with people, so i'll explain. The type of douche who would spend 5k to get into a club is the kind of guy who thinks he is hot shit because he's a banker and would never deign to go at 8 o'clock and sit around with "losers." Yea, "hoping they will have fun," if they are clearly the type of people who don't belong, are worried about how much drinks cost and don't know anyone there, I don't know how much fun they will have sitting by themselves and nursing expensive beers.

I don't know what that nonsense about a chance to control the door is about. Bars are grateful for the 9:30 business. If they weren't, they'd have consistent door policies throughout the evening. |
|
Date: June 26th, 2008 2:06 PM Author: Tantric Tank Crackhouse It's a bar in the hotel, they allow the hotel guests unfettered access until 9ish (you snuck in based on this), after then people staying in the hotel need a reservation or they cannot go. You clearly don't understand bars like this and make it seem even less likely that you are telling the truth. Bars in this category would rather have no one inside than girls who look like you, because it is more beneficial to their lonevity, they certainly don't need to be grateful.

Date: June 26th, 2008 2:12 PM Author: bipolar stimulating hell There are a number of ways a hotel bar can restrict its bar to its own guests, either entirely or during certain hours.

Date: June 26th, 2008 2:17 PM Author: massive gay wizard faggotry even most people who stay at the hotel are not guaranteed access to rose bar after 10 pm. it's a small venue, so it's not like they can let in everyone off the street. even the resident DJ is only allowed a maximum of 2 guests on a given night. Nur Khan, the director of rose bar (previously managed hiro, sway, wax) said he personally knows around 80% of the people at rose bar. from reading your posts, it seems like you went in before damien showed up and lounged around for an hour or two. whatever though. this is a pointless argument.

Date: June 26th, 2008 2:36 PM Author: bipolar stimulating hell I went there when I was dating the banker, it's apparently a place he likes to go to. I didn't have anything to do with the planning, or thankfully, the paying.
I didn't think we were out of place, and as I said, I had a pretty good time and thought it was a nice place. But it was ultimately just a lounge, and if a person is dissatisfied with New York nightlife in general I don't think going there would change their minds. |

Date: June 26th, 2008 2:37 PM Author: Tantric Tank Crackhouse You become less credible with every post.

Date: June 26th, 2008 2:42 PM Author: Tantric Tank Crackhouse The fact that she mentioned specifically he was a banker was meant to convey something.

Date: June 26th, 2008 2:48 PM Author: Purple theater stage Dude, what is your problem?
Your big thing is that you can only get into RoseBar the "honorable" way if you're incredibly rich and beautiful, right? Most people aren't incredibly rich and beautiful. Rowan said it's a nice place, with good music and drinks. If someone likes the place, and knows they couldn't pass the door test, what is so dishonorable about going when they know they can get in?
Is it dishonorable to get tickets to an expensive broadway show that you can't afford at TKTS? Or to go to an expensive restaurant for lunch instead of dinner?
Your mentality is exactly what turns me off to a lot of NY'ers, ESPECIALLY the type of people my friends from Yale and Stuyvesant like to date/associate themselves with.. |
|
Date: June 26th, 2008 2:50 PM Author: Tantric Tank Crackhouse I'm saying I feel bad for a guy who so desperately wants to be part of something that he clearly isn't that he would regularly show up at 8pm just to beat the doorman there and sit and wait around for 4 hours for people to come so he can think he belongs.

i have no problem kicking it until 4 am on a friday or saturday, but during the week a night out usually ends around 1. which means i'm out drinking around 8. so if dude likes rose bar what's wrong with him going early, if that's when he's out anyway? because you say it's not cool? or because he wouldn't be able to get in later, when he's not trying to anyway? |
|
Date: June 26th, 2008 2:57 PM Author: Tantric Tank Crackhouse Because he is still staying out late, it is pretty clear that he is only going there that early because he knows it's the only way he can get in there, and he is willing to spend 3-4 hours sitting around alone for that.

Date: June 26th, 2008 3:06 PM Author: Purple theater stage I think it's sad if the best things for you about a bar are the *other* people who are there. Most people enjoy going out to be with their friends (or get pussy if they're a guy, but Rowans ex was with his girlfriend so that's not an option).
For me, the most important things are:
not being too crowded *good music* creative/unusual cocktails
I couldn't care less about who the people at the other table are or what they're doing. |

What other schools have clubs in NYC? UVA/Dartmouth are combined with Yale (note: A *ton* of the douchebags are from Dartmouth). And it seems like every guy I meet from UVA works at Legg Mason or a similar place and wears a striped button down shirt with jeans and loafers. |

Date: June 26th, 2008 3:25 PM Author: massive gay wizard faggotry Ugh. i hate divulging personal information but i went to harvard. if your date is a regular at the harvard club happy hour, i most likely know him. don't worry though. if i do see you, i'm not going to freak you out by asking if you're blue smoke.
i have a lot of friends from yale as well as other ivies. i never thought they were particularly more pretentious than kids from other ivies. (although most wharton kids i've met have been unbearable).
all the ivies do have clubs, but i think harvard and penn are the only ones with their own separate buildings that they don't share with other schools.
your observation of uva alums is correct. but that's the fashion in the south. my ex-gf went there. |

Date: June 26th, 2008 3:37 PM Author: Purple theater stage This guy isn't a regular. He's older... 33ish... I really only like older guys and most of the guys I date are older than me. I guess I have daddy issues or something. But all my friends tease me about this. They just tend to be more settled, experienced and worldly than most of the 25 year old guys I meet.
If you see me at the HC, just come up to me, whisper "White girls with asian guys" in my ear and slip away quietly. |

Date: June 26th, 2008 3:03 PM Author: massive gay wizard faggotry i've met pretentious and annoying people from every city and town imaginable, even fucking small towns in texas. link to an empirical study which shows that NYC people are more pretentious? i grew up in L.A. and there are a lot of douchebags there as well.
the reason why reality and i got into this debate is because rowan sounded like she was an authority on rose bar and when pressed for details, certain inconsistencies came out. i personally could give a rat's ass about her social life or where she goes out. but if she's gonna make assessments on nyc nightlife, i'm going to ask for details. |

Date: June 26th, 2008 3:18 PM Author: bipolar stimulating hell I certainly didn't intend to pass myself off as an authority, more as a dissenting voice to Reality's assumption that he's the only person on the board who's set foot in any of the venues that are supposedly so different than the rest of New York bars. I think I stated pretty much immediately that I've been there twice. That being said, I think visiting the venue in question is sufficient to judge whether it's leaps and bounds different than other bars.

3) only hot people are allowed in.
4) ugly hotel guests have a chance of getting in.
5) Rowan was lying about getting in
6) Rowan was mistaken about getting in.
7) Rowan snuck in (through the front door)
8) Rowan can't judge the quality of people there because she went there early.
9) Rowan can't judge teh quality of people there because even though she stayed late, she didn't fit in so it impacted her judgment.
10) It's pathetic that Bankers would try to bribe Damien with 5k would be turned away
11) Bankers have too much self-respect to go to Rose bar an hour or two earlier than peak hours.

Perhaps my tastes would have been different if I grew up a beautiful social butterfly and developed a liking for having to attend tons of social events, having to shoot the shit with people all the time, girlier things like fashion and media, being around "trendy" people and the like, but now I'm pretty introverted, I'm pretty analytical and like to read and write a lot and I don't think I'd enjoy having to meet and socialize with new people all the time (as I would have to do in PR or fashion).

You: only because you can't go to good places. If you were rich and hot you would like it.

You: You don't have credibility because you're not an elite model who has access to these things.
Me: So... only the hottest and richest people can decide that they don't like NYC?
BTW, I've eaten at a number of restaurants that you'd call "nice." They're restaurants... anyone who can pay can eat there. I've gone to a number of places that even reality would agree are "nice" through work, school-related things, organizations, dates, family and (gasp) even paying for myself on occasion.

|
Date: June 26th, 2008 2:17 PM Author: Provocative chrome personal credit line a lot of stuff. Industry/government is more of what the standard Randy Marsh view of a geologist is (going out in the field and looking at shit, taking measurements), although it can also encompass environmental consulting (telling companies not to do X because Y will happen to the surroundings). You can take as much or little chem or physics as you would like; biogeochemistry (studying chemistry of, say, rivers) borders on environmental science more than geological science so it's pretty hard to define what geological sciences actually are. Geophysicists can do anything from highly theoretical work on the core to analyzing earthquake data. Physical geochemists can look at a rock outcrop and analyze why you would get, say, iron here and titanium there (some of the most useful stuff for industry, but also hard as crap). Geo-biologists are typically people who do fossil stuff, or analyze deep sediments to find out shit about ancient environment conditions etc. I could go into even more detail but you get the point
Don't be fooled though; pure structural geology needs very little chem or physics, but it's still pretty hard to wrap your mind around the 3-D concepts. Intro geo classes at most schools are a joke, and ironically enough Brown has one of the more "real" intro geo classes. Usually our intro classes are a fucking joke |

Date: June 27th, 2008 6:53 AM Author: Histrionic double fault Hey, if you're fine with being an embarrassment to your family then its cool with me. I mainly feel for your parents. Like when they're with their friends and everyone is talking about their kids, you know? Like "little Ashley just got married! The wedding was so beautiful, and she's married to a great guy." And your parents look down. And then the proud father asks: "so, don't you guys have a daughter too? [ Ball Crushing Dyke], right?" And your parents do their best to deflect their shame, but everyone knows its epic fail, much like their attempt at reproduction and breeding. That night, your father commends your mother for not crying that night. She responds, defeated, that she's all out of tears.

Date: June 27th, 2008 7:02 AM Author: Histrionic double fault "you have dumb, arbitrary standards for judging people"
I'm not talking about how I judge people. I'm just describing a scene that happens to parents like yours.
"intelligent people don't have a problem with my lesbianism."
Theoretically, yes. Much like you don't "have a problem" with people working at McDonalds until it happens to your kids.
"if you were smarter, you'd get that my being female doesn't mean i have to date a male."
I'll take strawmen for $100, Alex.
"but you've drank the 1950s kool aid."
Wasn't born nor was my family here in the 1950s. But every parent wants to see their kids in a good, happy relationship. Every father beems when his daughter marries that great guy she's been dating. I mean, not those who are fathers of lesbians, but you get the idea.
"having a dumb, short son must be pretty embarrassing for your parents."
No, my parents aren't retards, and we come from a background where being successful is much more important than being tall. |

So do my parents, as a matter of fact. My parents do not judge my success by my ability to happily stick my penis in a female who will then squirt out some kids. They judge my "success" by my ability to take care of myself, have a job that I like and the ability to contribute to society in a meaningful way. |

russians aren't capable of rational thought, that's why people in the us are comparatively wealthy, while russia is the toilet of the world. you people are dumb enough to, in spite of your poverty, value shitting out kids over producing. really, really smart. |

I do think you were being a little presumptuous with your post though. Maybe your folks care about these things, but I doubt my parents care either way whether or not I have kids. They're just thrilled my brother and I are out of the house, they get along much better now and take trips and party and stuff. I don't think grandkids are even on their radar, and I know they wouldn't want me to have kids I don't really want just so that they can keep the family growing or whatever. |
