Some thoughts: Vancouver boys are ridiculous. They can get whatever and whoever they want at the moments notice. A girlfriend said it perfectly when stating “ they always think they can do better” and the thing is, usually they can. How else can you explain not-so-good -looking or charming dirt bags getting hot women left right and center?

Not to say that women in this city are any better. We are always on the lookout for that “perfect guy” , not wanting to settle but still wanting to get laid. So why do I fault men in this city and not us gals? Because there’s more of us than them.. Statistically there are 20,000 more woman than men in the 15-65 age range. Seems quite broad but when you think about it that’s 400 more women give or take for each year. That’s 400 more girls than guys, and these girls are scrambling.

Another “amazing” thing about Vancouver is the swinger’s mind frame. Because we’re all young, cute, and not considered that slutty anymore for being promiscuous, the floodgates of sexuality and freedom to sleep with whomever you like has opened. There are no rules, there is no such thing as monogamy, in fact having one or more “fuck buddy” is totally acceptable. This of course has given a rise in STIs, however, an acceptance of said STIs is rising as well. Said one man when he was told his new partner had genital herpes “ yah you and every other girl in Vancouver”

So is it possible to find love, true love, in Vancouver? Is the fact that I can’t find anyone worth my time because I’m looking in the skanky alcoholic side of this city? Is it because I am in fact a skanky alcoholic too? I think it’s a yes.
