My bestie and I (30s F) are looking to meet successful/attractive/normal men. Online dating isn't working so we're going old school. Any suggestions on bars that single men frequent? Or places to meet guys?

I'll be in new York ~7/15-8/10, maybe you can convince me to stay longer 😅

At first I thought you were rating yourself 7/15 and how strange that was. Then I realized I‘be been pregaming for an hour and can’t read

As someone (M) who frequents the nightlife / club scene way more than I should - I can confidently say that they guys there are not what you’re looking for lol

I would say go to Costco! Maybe they are not at a bar, maybe they are just getting a dollar 50 cent hot dog at costco

likeupliftingfunny

I think you can say you’re going to the pharmacy (which doesn’t need a membership) and buy the hotdog.

I find Costco to be families and married men…not ideal for dating.

Would love to know! Feel like everywhere I’ve been the guys have been fresh out of college

I have tons of successful friends who are single in their early to mid 30s (mostly guys in Finance and partners in Big Law). I want to echo what people have said here… I don’t think you want to meet them for something serious. DM me at your own peril 😂

30 m ny/nj. US citizen. Moved as a teenager. INTJ. Single since I figured I’m not fighting the biological clock and have all the time in the world to meet someone and get settled. Things changed after I watched Akshay’s mom (Indian Matchmaking) tell him even 25 is too late and not marrying somehow messes up lives of people around him. While the show was staged, there might be truth to the latter part.
