Can't be as bad as the bay area.

Haven’t lived in the Bay Area. Trust me it’s either equally bad or even worse

Dude I can’t possible imagine a dating life worse than the bay.

Bae Area is a misnomer.

Definitely fewer Chinese women here. That said it can be tougher to crack cliques here as many people have longer standing social ties to the area than SF. Also there's probably more people here who don't work in tech which is both a plus and a minus depending on your point of view.

As a girl I keep on running into the same type of entitled amaholes who loves his job, happy hour, and the gym way too much. It’s like they are all the same person. Wondering if I should move to Bay Area. Edit: It’s not bad that he likes these things but just got the impression he won’t make time for me and would rather go drink with his fellow tech bros instead and work out or stay at his job late and code monkey until he hits L6. I’ve gotten cancelled upon and also had to wait weeks to plan a date because they were too busy. And then they show up late like it’s nothing. I’m busy too but I make time. Do these guys do the same to recruiters if they call them? Why date if you can’t make time for a relationship? Specifically I’m talking about dudes who work at Amazon. What is up with people who work at this company?

Yes...I agree. So many men that act like they are the ones in high demand 🙄 no one cares about your Tesla.

The same applies to women.

As a married guy can I just say that any advice you get on Blind WRT dating is almost guaranteed to be wrong. Get a life. Find your interests. Become interesting and you’ll find many intriguing and beautiful women. Even in the Bay.

Lived in both, born and raised in the Bay Area, moved to Seattle for Amazon. Def better in Seattle. By numbers alone you’ll have a much better ratio. There’s a reason they call it Man Jose! I looked this up a few years back so the numbers may have changed. However, in 2015 there were 20k more dudes in SJ than there were gals. Meaning, if there was one single girl, there’d be 20,001 single dudes.

You aren't good at Maths, are you?

Oh god just how dumb are you?

@axtria we literally have the same math, you just decided to present the results differently. My point was if best case scenario (in a traditional sense) meaning if there were the least amount of single men, than there would still be a surplus of single men in the tens of thousands. So, in your example data set, if there are 20k single women dated 20k of the 30k guys there would be 10k remaining single guys. Now, if one of couple were to break up, that means there one single girl, and now 10,001 single dudes. Finally again, since I made the mistake of not mentioning variables the first time, yes I understand there are other social factors that can skew the results.

@MP3 I see your point. However, with the data shown this is all we can apply. It’s not the whole argument, just part of it. Because duh, as I stated there are obviously other variables to consider (relative demographics.), however your rebuttal only further emphasizes my point. If there were more single woman, naturally there are more single dudes. If women were dating multiple guys, then again, there will naturally be more single dudes. Finally no, I’m not assuming that single men can’t leave sj, I literally said I moved from sj to Seattle myself. I was simply giving OP an answer that would closely pertain and stay within the parameters of his question. Even IF guys leave sj, who’s to say that guys aren’t also leaving Seattle? I suppose I should have touched on the variables in my original response however, i assumed they would have been implied. In addition, without the data why even mention it? Do you know how many single men are leaving SJ? How about Seattle? I’m always eager to learn, although and I do understand that this is blind, but you really didn’t have to put someone down because you assumed my extreme example was the entire argument.
