How NYC slowly became a horrible city for meeting women.

I live in NYC and right now, the Coronavirus crisis has the whole city still shut down although things are slowly starting to get better. Unfortunately, well before the Coronavirus, the city was getting hit with a social virus that is bound to get worse in the coming years.

Even many months before all this, I was noticing something over the years that you only notice if you go out almost every weekend into the city. At first, I didn't think much of it but overtime when reflecting, it was troubling.

A while ago, Amazon tried to expand into NYC but the city denied Amazon that right. I was very thankful but for cultural reasons. I have always said and strongly believed that San Francisco and Toronto are without question the worst big cities in North America for dating and meeting women, if not the absolute worst at least top five. After staying in both cities, I noticed that it was not just a potential ratio issue that made them horrible, it was the actual women who live in those cities. The personality, vibe, culture, attitudes, and a mixture of all of those things came together to make an imperfect storm for dating and meeting women. Wait until you deal with the personality of a Toronto or San Francisco girl, truly the lowest of western women.

For a while, I didn't really care for this, I am from NYC anyways. Yet, due to the aggressive tech expansion and the fact that NYC garnered a reputation for having favorable ratios, things went downhill every year. More and more thirsty dudes, primarily from horrible dating cultures like San Francisco and Toronto flooded the city. Chill rooftops and cool places like say Le Bain and PhD now became places where you would see guys trying to actually do PUA ****.

Now for a while, the biggest nuisance you'd run into in NYC bars were rude guidos but even those guys were relatively chill. Some might get rowdy but if you left them alone, they were there to party with the boys. That changed to actual creepy and poorly coordinated guys flooding bars, you can even tell girls were creeped out. Now that was not the problem here, the problem came over the years.

Quality of women goes down, especially lately as the modeling industry dies a slowly painful death.

Victoria Secrets shows cancelled thanks to body shaming but also, it wasn't just the desperate dudes from Toronto and San Fran from flooded NYC, not at all. The very women who craved narcissism, wanted to be social media cool, and live the YOLO lifestyle from those very cities flooded NYC as well when they heard the Williamsburg cool kid trend and the city lost its rough tough reputation. Typical spoiled Bay Area, Vancouver, or Toronto girl floods NYC now for the popularity purpose instead of pursuing a modeling career as her kind usually lack model-tier looks. Bars and nightclubs slowly became full of tighter social circles instead of places people went to just meet each other.

Ratios even out, thirsty guys and SIMPs become the norm as local, east coast, and European women become more rare.

Unfortunately, the dorks from Silicon Valley do make money even though they don't have much else going for them. For more of a dating culture with actual women in it, these dudes turn to SIMPing and given that they don't work Banker hours, they have some time to spend. Unfortunately, the nightlife turns into a freakshow, a true Silicon Valley Freakshow, sometimes to where it is unrecognizable. Any mainstream NYC bar popular on lists? Expect to now see PUAs, a flood of San Francisco and Toronto people, butch lesbians, and worst of all, women from Toronto and San Francisco.

A cultural shift and the future.

NYC was long a haven for single male bachelorhood where blunt culture and straightforward attitudes ruled. Unfortunately, the city has slowly fallen victim to tech expansion and a social justice culture. What were once nightclubs full of women from Europe, the southern states, midwestern states, and also the good ole east coast have now turned into an influx of Canadians and Californians. A once great city for dating is now mediocre at best.

Hardly surprising for a city run by sinistroids. It was inevitable.

I haven't been there yet.

Missed my chance in 2017 and it'll be a while before I plan to try again. I know it's all about looks (same as everywhere else) and that a tall, ripped guy will clean up, especially with wide eyed out of town girls. Lot of New Yorkers on SoSuave will back that up.

It'll always be a better place to hookup than anywhere else. Quantity is quality.

@Listen_to_Olly I always heard that NYC was great if for no other reason than there was a huge ratio imbalance between men and women heavily tilted to the men's advantage? As far as the SJW are concerned I have found that if you have the IDGAF attitude and just laugh at them they eventually will do just about anything to get into your good graces, you become the edgy cool kid that all the dudes want to be and all the girls want to bang.

In Toronto women are more than men, however, in this time and age of online dating more and more women are getting too picky and narcissistic.

Did you not read what he posted? He said that the city has been great for a while which is specifically when people moved there in droves, now it sucks for that very reason.
 

Peace and Quiet

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.

Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.

This will quickly drive all women away from you.

And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.

Yeah NYC is a case study in the gold rush scenario almost. I remember going in 2011 and before the whole thing about it being a good city to meet women was posted. I interned there and even stayed with a friend for six months. We ended up going out a lot during that time and were running into about 60:40 ratios at bars and clubs, 60% women. On a good night? 70% women and 30% dude with a decent number of the guys being gay. The thing was a gold mine.

I still kept in touch with my friends and yup, the whole city went down the drain socially. One thing they kept mentioning is that it got "California'd" and the women you ran into were different. Back in the day you'd run into a small town girl, midwestern girl, or girls there for a career from more conservative areas who wanted the hustle and bustle changeup. Women headed to the city for different reasons than they do now.

At some point the Williamsburg hype happened and NYC suddenly went from gritty work hard city to now being infested with SJWs from places like San Francisco and a lot of Canadians too. Typically the women who ended up in the city were from cities where being "cool" is valued over actual value so nightlife became more plastic. I think what really did NYC in is that hype it started getting from Williamsburg and the wild parties, soon every narcissistic and thirsty phuk wanted in. Now NYC is going downhill more and more by the year is what they claim.

It's been a while since I've gamed in NYC, but I always remembered Union Square and SoHo being the major hot spots to meet women.
And anywhere near NYU

If all you do is meet women at nightclubs, bars or on OLD apps, don't complain, expect this in every part of the world and be smart, change demographics on where you hangout.

I've done the same but girls like that are pump and dump only. No way any guy should settle down with a SJW. Lifes too short to deal with that crap.

Maybe it's just you and you need to adapt? No offense. Seems most girls I've met from Cali were very open and chill.

NYC has every flavor of woman a guy could want plus sheer volume. For me, it has been an outstanding place to meet women.
How long ago? Yeah it might have been good decades ago but to say it is outstanding, you have to be comparing it to flyover country. Miami, Chicago, Charleston, Nashville, and San Diego are miles ahead of NYC for dating.

People who say NYC is still good are spam approachers who luck out due to the women, the city has gone to dumps in recent years with the mass influx of people finding out it is good for men.

I lived in NYC in the 90's to early 2000's. Back then, there were clubs everywhere such as the Palladium, Limelight, the Tunnel... I would meet women on any given night when I went out. They all closed down and it seemed like lounges took over the scene with doormen and thousand dollar bottle service. Then 9/11 happened and the whole mood of the city became depressed overnight. I moved out of the city in 2002 and have only gone back for concerts or sporting events.

I can imagine that with the recent virus outbreak, a lot of the women that had moved there from all over the country packed up and headed home. The social scene in NYC will no doubt take a massive hit and be nonexistent until a vaccine is widely available.
