Dating in NYU & NYC

<p>NYU is a college that is on my list and I'm going on a campus tour this week. I wanted to know about the dating scene at NYU? I've heard that they are tons of gay guys (I'm a female) so it seems the straights guys have more of an advantage. I guess the only thing to do is to date in the city. So how is dating in New York City?</p>

<p>GossipAngel, I’m a straight male freshman at NYU, there are a lot of gay guys but I believe the majority is still straight, anyways in terms of dating, idk I only know a couple of people who “date” as are in a relationship, most just remain single and play the field I guess you could say, both guys and girls that is. But if you want to date I mean its really no different than any other place, only in the sense that you have more places to actually go on dates, but its certainly not the only thing to do…Hope that helps a bit.</p>

<p>as a girl, i feel the need to say this to any girl i meet who is afraid of not meeting guys at NYU, or Barnard, or any NYC area school for that matter:</p>

<p>you’re in new york city. there are SO many attractive guys here in Manhattan. if you can’t find a cute straight guy HERE. . . it’s not the city’s fault. there is life outside NYU.</p>

<p>LOL There are so many opportunities to meet people! I mean, New York City itself is so diverse that it is almost imperative that you meet people who have similar interests.</p>

<p>Umm… there are SO many gays at NYU, although, there are straight guys here. Although, most girls I know who are dating guys are older guys or guys at different schools. Very few straight NYU couples.</p>

<p>Even our relationships are “in and of the city”. </p>

<p>;-)</p>

<p>And yeah, I’m one of those girls dating a non-NYUers. My bf is a Cornellian.</p>

<p>I’m a girl in a straight NYU couple. My boyfriend lives on my floor, we met the first couple weeks of school. Just letting you know that it can be done. =)</p>
