Living in San Jose
What’s it like for a single male, early 30s, likes women? 🙋🏻♂️ Coming from NYC, thinking about renting a 1br apartment likely downtown, unless somebody has a better suggestion. Serious comments only, please. TC: 🌲 fiddy, but still waiting on other offers Edit: What other oprions are there? I need to comute to FANG. Will get a car for sure. SF seems too far and traffic is a nightmare.
You can find women to date. Just expect that their BMI will be +10 compared to what you’re dating in NYC, and with a worse attitude towards men. You’ll love the weather though.
Where in nyc are you coming from? Which neighborhood? You will be disappointed in SJ. Very, very disappointed. Do the needful and go to SF. You will still be disappointed coming from NYC, but at least there’s good bridges to jump from.
Lol don’t. Been there. Done that.
You would be more at home in SF. Public transport in the Bay Area especially in San Jose is a fucking joke. You will need a car in San Jose . If wherever you are going to work has shuttles from the city and back up, I would choose SF. Rents however for a 1br are much lower in SJ as compared to SF. You’ll need to chose your battles
San Jose is fuck off boring. Go to mountain view
Zero chicks in Bay area. Piss poor housing options and no girls are the tradeoffs for high TC.
If you’re decent looking, fit, have hobbies, and can hold a conversation about non-tech related subjects, you should be fine. Yes, even if you’re Chinese or Indian, don’t give me that “yeah it’s only easy for white people” woeful bullshit. People here exaggerate how bad dating in the Bay is. It is if you’re a stereotypical tech bro loser who has nothing to offer besides his TC. I’m not sure where this lack of women perspective is coming from, because when I go out to bars and clubs in SF there’s tons of women there. San Jose is a bit boring but Palo Alto and Mountain View have a decent amount of chill bars. I assume the average Blind user spends most of their day in the office and sits at home on weekends and that’s why they think there’s no women around. The Bay Area probably isn’t as exciting as NYC, but it really isn’t as awful as people make it out to be. So the experience is really what you make of it, but that goes for anything.
Man jose is boring af compared to NYC. Just keeping it real. But if you got game you can get girls anywhere. Besides girls I feel bad for you. San jose sucks.
San Jose is garbage. Most of South Bay sucks. Live in SF if you can. I’m moving from SJ soon and couldn’t be more excited.
