Miss J had sent me a link to an article from Glamour "How Long is the Commute To Your Boyfriend’s Place?..."
Single-ish -a dating blog - by Erin Meanley (the author) blogged about a recentNew York
It described how different single populations are spread out, and how in her neighborhood, the Upper East Side, has the lowest concentration of singles in Manhattan, as well as "more single women than anywhere else in the city" (64,000)! Great. In this case, ignorance would have been bliss.
The article is also about “long-distance-local couples.” When you and your boyfriend live in NYC, it can take an hour and a half to travel the 14 miles between your apartments, whereas in any other city, it takes 20 minutes. (You think I complain about interborough dating, but even the NYT considers it an issue!) The story talked about how some men feel they would have gone on a second date with a great girl, but decided not to because she lived 2 trains and a bus away.
More on this later because I have had my own run in with this topic - it wasn't love but apparently it was a schlep.
