Has anyone dated women in Manhattan?

[bigneil]

My job detoured me again and now I'm headed to New York, New York.

I heard they have the highest cost of living ($3800 / month for cheapest hotel) and the highest ratio of women per men (go figure), but I've never been out on the town. Is it all "Sex and the City" b*tches and Jersey Shore dudes?

Welcome to the Jungle lol

Seriously though, it depends where you go. In my opinion, Downtown is more of the corporate women types around the financial area. I like going up in the midtown area where its a variety, you'll get more corp and college type girls. Sometimes the upper west side is fun. Have fun when you get here. BTW its hardly jersey shore girls from what ive seen, alot of nice girls all around and you never know you might run into a girl that is from your home town or close. Im always meeting girls that arent even from NYC.

Sometimes the upper east side is fun. Have fun when you get here.

i have to disagree...the UES is pretty dull.

Yeah, the problem here is volume. There's so much competition, and not just for dating - EVERYONE you meet is desperate to impress and has assembled an amazing life story to present.

Still, I can't think of any other place that has so many amazing things to do. But it is very stressful.

No, though there are a lot of those types. Most chicks who work in Manhattan come from the suburbs or surrounding areas then disappear on the weekends. A lot of Europeans in clubs on weekends and or yuppies, jersey shore, college types etc. Depending on where you go out. Yes IMO I think a LOT of them are either the sex and the city types living in the glamour of working in NYC or are flakes. And I mean flakes as in weirdos. The liberal hippy types, hipsters, and chicks who dress hot in office attire and when back to the burbs etc are in their jersey shore gear. There are sooo many different types in Manhattan it's impossible to generalize though. It's like any big city. A lot of people aren't originally from NY, a lot from overseas, a lot from the suburbs and surrounding areas. (A lot of the wannabees and VIP club "upper echelon" will be one upping the other with talk of having been to or in the Hamptons all summer etc.) It depends. It's either people one upping each other, keeping to themselves, or being some liberal weirdo. Just like any other big city in America.


You'll fit in with the Scores and Larry Flints Hustler club scene. lol.


VVV The below too. There's too many people in NYC to generalize. And yes I believe there's far too much "choice" in NYC for most of those people to stay committed.VVV

I live in Manhattan now.

Here's what I think about dating here - There are lots of interesting people. Interesting people to meet, to date, and just to talk to.

But with that said, there are too many people here. Never before have I seen a city where men and women are so easily replaceable. I think we're all maintaining multiple relationships at the same time, waiting for some to fizzle out so we can replace them with someone new. And this isn't an anti-female rant. I think men here can get away with it too.

My experience here has taught me to never get attached, never think about the future, and enjoy these girls while I have them. Because one week, we'll be in love, and the next week we're not returning each other's texts.

I don't think it's the Sex and the City vibe that you have to worry about. Unless you seek out those types of girls. There's a scene for everyone up here.

Just gotta keep things in perspective, and dont get attached. That's all I can say.

No your right.. I meant Upper West Side. I usually go to two bars up there where the girls get down a bit. It depends on the night you know?. I hit up Jake's Dilemma and the Gin Mill.

 

[Pardner]

probably just like in every big city lol

 

[rum]

It's all sex and the city *****es.

New York is a non starter for women. Most are beautiful...usually they "work" in fashion or are nanny's to wealthy families or teachers...the brooklyn women are psychotic self centered judgmental hipsters that are non starters. many do drugs regularly

New York women are the most disloyal, crazy ****s you will ever meet...they expect you to be a millionaire, they expect you to look like Ryan Goose**** or whatever his name is, they expect you to get them into exclusive red carpet events...they all think their celebrities and they matter just because daddy back in LA is funding her NYC escapades.

 

[ArcBound]

Lived in NYC for almost all my life and I second Iceberg. There are just so many people, everyone is replaceable. Want fun nights? Manhattan is for you. But both girls and guys are so replaceable just because out of the sheer amount of people you will be bound to find another attractive man/woman....relationships will be mroe like short flings.

You can definitely find the type of woman you want, but you have to realize they can definitely find the types of men they want as well.

"But with that said, there are too many people here. Never before have I seen a city where men and women are so easily replaceable.

It's a haven in the way that if you have a flakey girl you can go out another weekend and replace her. It's hell in the way that eventually the same can be done to you unless you really made a big impression. I prefer the slightly less fast paced borough of Brooklyn.

 

[bigneil]

Thanks everyone.

I'm sure the New York City women will make the Texas bad girls seem sweet by comparison, so I'll let you guys know when the stripper is in town. She turns 21 in a few weeks.

What are the best bars? I read that Gramercy tavern is a good one.

 

[VladPatton]

Yeah the b!tches here are in their own world. You CAN find a nice, sweet one, but yeah, they have so many other dix to choose from that it gets competitive right outta the gate.

Welcome to Planet Biznitch!

Isn't it like that in every big city? I live in Atlanta. This is the truth squared here.

I dated one chick that works in Manhattan who was a customer at my part time. Went out with her twice for drinks. She was the type to always talk about money, trips, etc. I got bored real quick and never called her back. I still see her from time to time and she hints at seeing me again. I should've banged her and took off as I could have. But to be honest I don't live for pvzzy. It doesn't control me and I got bored with her NYC nonsense. She wound up telling me she had worked in a strip club as a waitress and her boss wanted her to dance but she wouldn't. LMAO. I wasn't surprised in the least as I'm quick to pick up on signs and the nonsense.

Most chicks like that are completely posing in their Sex and the City glamour girl lifestyle. They can help it as their crowd is the same way. But not EVERY chick in NYC is like that. There's waaay too many people to generalize ALL of them.

 

[bigneil]

Now that everyone in the bar scene seems to have some big-shot story, maybe the way to go when we meet women is to confess that we are ordinary?

I don't know, man. I think it depends on your scene.

I don't go for those Type-A, corporate-ladder-climbing, prada and gucci bag girls. They're not my audience. And while ALL girls are naive and ridiculous in their expectations, I've rarely found myself on a date with a girl who is expecting me to take over a Fortune 500 company or buy her lobster for dinner.

Nah. It just depends on who you meet and the types you hang out with. You might meet a lot of cool chicks and know which ones to avoid so in the end you might say to yourself WTF are these dudes talking about? They might be attracted to you depending on where you're from, where you've been, accent, looks, height, attitude etc.

A lot will come in from the other boroughs, the suburbs to work during the week and not be there on weekends then others who maybe do or don't work in Manhattan during the week come at night on weekends.

I'm 15 minutes from NYC and don't bother with going there much. Too much hassle with parking etc or having to take the train in and find good spots.

Who knows. You may wind up meeting a lot of cool chicks. You just have to experience it yourself.

this is an interesting topic for me, however not based in manhatten but in london, UK.. in certain parts of london it's exactly like manhatten i.e. sex and the city type women lookign for rich financiers etc etc.. gorgeous, fashionable high maintenance.. how does one deal with these types in manhattan?

im pretty certain the tips here would apply specifically in london too.

i dont have the income to be taking chicks to opera, theatre, expensive dinners etc nor would i.. however it just seems like these are the only types i meet where i live.. yeah i have a thing for high fashion chicks but i dont want to be bankrupted tryna appease them, f that.

how do i still get these types without forking out on expensive dinners? cheap dates are hard to get them to come for.. i have a few date ideas which are cheap but classy so they dont realize im not spending that much.

 

[bigneil]

Given how expensive it is in Manhattan, the women there must be looking for someone who owns property nearby. I'll bet the show-stopping "Do you own or rent?" question comes up a lot, my answer being "I only rent hookers".

All hotties want to extract maximum material gain from the male A subsection of these the sex and city set have it in their minds that their golden puzzy is absolute worth a highly solvent millionaire....of course this is laughably absurd but as long as millionaires try to 'date' these women instead of paying for professionals as they should this problem will persist.

BRIFFAULT’S LAW:

The female, not the male, determines all the conditions of the animal family. Where the female can derive no benefit from association with the male, no such association takes place.

There are a few corollaries I would add:

1.Past benefit provided by the male does not provide for continued or future association.

2. Any agreement where the male provides a current benefit in return for a promise of future association is null and void as soon as the male has provided the benefit (see corollary 1)

3. A promise of future benefit has limited influence on current/future association, with the influence inversely proportionate to the length of time until the benefit will be given and directly proportionate to the degree to which the female trusts the male (ha).
