So girls, we just heard how dating in the burbs can be difficult! But let us now take those factors and multiply them by 10 and we are left with a sum of an even harder time to find Mr. Perfect. Although his looks may be 100% GQ his attitude is 100% PEEE-YEWW!! There are approximately 1,629,054 who populate Manhattan and only 20% of them are Jewish. It is a known fact there there are more women in this world than men so, if you take these factors into consideration Men have a lot more of us ladies to choose from than we have of them! Now, doesn't this sound very unfair? Well such is life! :::thumbs down:::
After living in the city that never sleeps for a little over 4 years I have had my fare share of observing how guys work. Now, I am not saying that all the guys in Manhattan are scum-bags but I have seen and heard a lot of crazyness! I have this little theory that I sort of believe is more factual than hypathetical! Are you ready to hear it? You sure? Alright, well here it is!
According to J.Z. and Alicia Keys, New York is a concrete jungle where dreams are made of! It is a city that is very fast paced and competitive, where everyone is striving for the best of the best. Well, I think this holds true for relationships and dating in the Ol' Big Apple! Because everyone is constantly on the go and searching for the next best thing, men who are in relationships don't always take the time to realize what they have! What they have (the girl) could be the best thing they will ever find in their entire life! But, because they strive for the best, they may not realize it until it is too late...when they have already broken it off with that girl to find something they think will be better! This is extreemly unfortunate! I am sure there are women out there that do this too, but I have heard more stories from women regarding this matter. I have also experienced it myself.
Also, My experience in finding a Nice Jewish Boy out and about in NYC is that they are either NOT Jewish, taken, gay, or (to put it nicely) A JERK!
Meeting guys in clubs and bars is usually not the best way to go out finding your NJB! The club scene and bar scene in NYC is usually for people wanting to take someone home with them that same night, not for serious relationships. However, it does sometimes work. I have a few friends who have met their boyfriends of a few years at bars. But like I keep stating, this doesn't always work.You can also join organizations like YJP (Young Jewish Professionals). They hold a lot of mixers within different industries where young Jewish professionals can get together and meet each other. I have attended a couple of these events. A majority of the guys are just looking to get laid! But I still enjoy going and meeting all different types of people because I am just a very social person. I have also made great some contacts and friends at these events!

A great alternative that was mentioned in the previous post could be Jdate! I know many men and women who have found their basheirt on this dating site, MAZEL TOV to you! But for many New Yorkers Jdate is an alternative to going to a bar and finding a hook up! This makes me angry! Young Jewish men and women should not abuse a website that many people are taking seriously! I have my fare share of personal Jdate stories that I will leave for another time!
Great Places to meet Jewish Guys:
Murry Hill (section) of NYC
Clubs in the Meat packing District
This is all I can think of right now. I know there are more! When I think of them you can be sure I will dedicate an entire post this this topic!
STAY TUNED TO THE NEXT POST WHERE I SPLURGE ON SOME JDATING EXPERIENCES!!! YOU WONT WANT TO MISS THIS!!!
Kiss Kiss, Hug Hug
-D.
