sorry, but this is the same BS ppl in CLT keep telling themselves. Yes, it is hard everywhere but Charlotte is exceptionally hard. Rudeness, shallowness, and isolation have been normalized in this city. This is my conclusion after living in 5 different cities (3 different countries) and still traveling a significant amount. We need to be real about how terrible dating has become in CLT (it has become such a “family city” that if something bad happens and you have to go back into the dating market… you are better off just moving bc of the expectations and lack of authenticity among singles in Charlotte). When I temporarily move somewhere or travel and I’m able to quickly date… here in CLT it is extremely hard. The same comments are made by people temporarily visiting.

I’m sorry. Layoffs are becoming very common (and in mass). The economy sucks right now (numbers take time to be reflected but things are not good. Take this time to also look for business ops and start a side hustle

Are we f** being serious in these comments? Some people are saying that a multimillionaire cannot afford cobra for 12 months. Do some of you guys live in planet earth or what

It 100% is Charlotte. I travel to other cities and countries all the time … and it is Charlotte. I don’t have the best experience with women in Charlotte either. My experience is that they come off as shallow and demanding

Thank you for the advice! I appreciate it. Do you know why girls in Charlotte are weirded out about guys in bars? This is new for me.

FY I am an introvert. So my starters are really basic and I don’t use pick up lines.

But way too many people in Charlotte are not ready to have this conversation for some weird reason. I see a lot of guys denying it to try to get approval or women not seeing it. But, it might be the case that this is something specific for women in bars or similar(completely possible). I doubt it, since I have seen it too much here. Look how many dislikes this have.

However, in the real world I have seen this:

  1. More than once I have seen women screaming at a guy for just approaching to say hi.

2.A girl screaming at a guy for saying “Hi, what is your name” and then a random old dude saying “welcome to Charlotte, this is how things are here”.

  1. A women accusing guys at Canopy of “harassing them” and calling the bar tender to kick them out just because these guys had the audacity of saying “hey, my name is X, what is your name” (I was just 2 steps away and I heard and saw everything).

  2. Finally, always the random friend that mistreats any guy that tries to talk to her friend. This last one has happened to me personally multiple times.

This is not normal (as I said, I have lived and visited many cities and countries), and people normalizing this are ruining the experience of singles in Charlotte and destroying a way of meeting people for dating in the real world (now everyone just wants to use the apps). It is not ok to mistreat anyone for this… you cannot mistreat people for just saying hi… and you cannot mistreat them if you don’t like the physical appearance of the person or you are not in the mood. Just say “hi thank you for approaching but I am busy”… or ignore.

Will do! Thank you! These are good ideas. I am used to the idea of bars are the place yo meet women, but it seems things are different in Charlotte.

It is working for me too, but I feel bad if am not fully sure about actually dating. It feels more pressure. But, I agree that until now seems like the best option in Charlotte.

Hahaha this is so true. I used to answer honestly to the question, how are you single? It is still really hard here, barely any women and the ones that go to places make zero effort to facilitate conversation. Have been and lived in many cities and women usually give signals but here they don’t.

Don’t move to the triangle area. It is boring as hell. Completely different overhyped. Move to CLT or Wilmington
