[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP where does she live? [/quote]

NY - Brooklyn[/quote]

New poster here - ohhhhh.  NYC guys are notoriously not ready to settle down til much later in life.  That was true when I lived there 20 years ago before internet dating was the thing.

Best advice I can give is to cast a wider net, I.e. older guys that are ready to settle down, meeting guys through friend groups or work, or somehow geographically expanding options.  The women I know, including my younger sister, that ended up marrying someone that they dated while living in NYC, it was always someone they met thru friends or knew from work or college and the guy didn’t always live in NYC.   And even with that, the women had to be willing to pass on the Peter Pan B.S.  if a guy wasn’t about a serious relationship then thanks but no thanks.   Why accept less than what you want?  And why should a guy even think about giving up other options if he can still be with you without any commitment?  Don’t get me wrong, if your sister isn’t ready to settle down, then she is a good match for the guys that aren’t.  But if she is, she shouldn’t waste her time on guys that aren’t looking for a relationship.[/quote]
