'Everyone is poly,' no one is serious, and other reasons dating in San Francisco is awful
Michelle Robertson, SFGATE | on February 13, 2019
San Francisco is a city full of young, ambitious people with great food, hundreds of bars and even more activities. What could go wrong when you're looking for love? There are many, many examples in the slideshow above.
I spent about six years actively dating around the Bay Area. In that time I dated, for varying amounts of time, three self-described indie rockers, an amateur hockey player, an elementary school teacher with a drinking problem, a yoga teacher who didn't drink alcohol (or consume processed sugars and carbohydrates of any kind), an English teacher living in his mom's in-home daycare, and a skateboarding enthusiast who worked as a manager at a tech company.
These budding relationships ended for various reasons. At least three of the aforementioned men were still in love with their exes. One said he couldn't handle the pressure of texting me "witty responses," and thus could not go on seeing me. Most of the rest were "not looking for something serious."
