Fuck, I don’t want to be Single. What is the degree of difficulty of finding a girl fiend or even dating with a woman at the Bay Area? I am still in the 20s. TC almost 300k
Harder than LC hard
Depends on TC
Just depends on your standards. I know a fair number of women who complain about not being able to meet quality guys. If your standard is fit thin white or East Asian tech women in their 20s you are pretty much SOL but there are wayyy more women out there who fit other profiles than who fit that one.
Also, I'm 5'7" and not a good looking guy. I managed to land a taller pretty woman. If I can, don't blame your height (but do feel free to lie by an inch or two if you're using match or tinder, every other guy does) and unless you're Quasimodo or have a major deformity don't blame your looks. And actually the guy who I knew in college who had weird eyes not on the same level vertically is now married so if he can do it even a major deformity doesn't necessarily stop you. I bet Peter Dinklage has no troubld dating.
What if she doesn't have to be in tech and doesn't have to be white or east Asian but should be fit, and smart /driven etc?
Depends on : 1) Location - SF fkin easy, Foster City forget about it 2) TC and the kind of bars you hang out at
Foster City is sooo boring. If you live here (or in East San Mateo) as a single person you are going to be travelling a lot to do anything fun. On the up side, there's a little bit of a scene in some of the Peninsula little downtowns (San Mateo included) SF isn't too bad by train, and you are really near a lot of chicas in Hayward etc where if you are willing to get out of the tech/upper middle clas bubble can be a lot of fun.
It’s still pretty hard to pick up girls in San Mateo - the scene’s more bubble tea than beers. I’d say moving closer to a hot neighborhood where you can be more social and meet more people is the safest bet. Heard a lot of good things about Hayward and Berkeley too
It’s easy when you have some game.
And game is learned. Fear of striking out is the worst thing for most guys. Rejection sucks but being alone sucks worse. Once you realize that missing opportunities entirely is worse than being shot down when you try, the rest will come with practice.
Wth is game anyway? Why do you need game?
NP Hard
Certainly harder than avg due to the ratio. What I've seen most frequently is guys settling or not bothering.
I have seen no body bothers to approach a female. It is a man’s world, jokes are sexist, guys don’t try to be gentle around women. I bet if you tried, you would find a date.
If you are 6’3 it should be easy everywhere. If you are 5’9 or below, it will be a fucking nightmare. 6’2+: Leetcode Easy 6’+: Leetcode Medium 5’10+: Leetcode Hard 5’9+: ACM ICPC Regional 5’6+: ACM ICPC World Final Below: Prove NP=P
Someday Bay Area single guys would lose their finger prints and everyone is gonna suspect leetcode 😄😆
