You just have to learn where to find them, put yourself in positions where you can meet them, and be fun/friendly/outgoing. I know people say women who can’t find men have standards that are way too high, but l had even multimillionaires who were interested. You just have to go places in real life where they’ll be, online isn’t the best place to find rich guys.

Congratulations on your gold digging prowess, hope you landed the big one.

Oh sheesh. Income played very little role in my decision, I was just saying that whatever you want, it’s out there. You just have to look for it.

My point is, just be the opposite of the stereotypical Washingtonian. Be friendly. Drum up small talk with everyone, even if they aren’t someone you are interested in, because they may have a friend/son/nephew. Have an identity outside of work. Cultivate interests and hobbies outside of your career. Be kind; I met one millionaire because I stopped to help him catch his escaped dog. Don’t rely on apps or websites for dating, because that’s not a good way to meet people, and it sets up unrealistic expectations. Stop treating dating like you’re ordering a meal off of a menu. I see it sort of like investing- yea, you can pay an outside service, or look online. But my best investments have come from actually going out and doing the legwork, or even just chatting up strangers in real life.

Man here. I like you. Excellent advice. Swapping statistics (height, weight, income level) with strangers on the internet is just silly.

And even more women can’t deal with the fact that men just don’t care what a woman’s job is until it’s time to do a joint 1040. Save the resume for a job hunt.

There was a WAPO dating article years ago where they sent reports to Alaska as it has the most available men, and DC had the most available women to see if they could find someone elsewhere, but it was a quick trip so no they didn't.

I'm married, but honestly if I was single and it had been multiple years without a second date, I'd probably move. The numbers just aren't in our favor here.

I did find my DH while dating in DC years ago, but I'm attracted to liberal nerds who are nice guys, have great senses of humor, and who rock "dad bods" even before becoming a parent (I promise I'm not a troll) and there's a few of those here.
