Among some of the largest cities in the US like Miami Beach, Los Angeles or New York City, you’d think it would be easier to find your soulmate given its large size and population. What’s surprising to know is how much of the population are actually single in these big cosmopolitan cities and all struggling to find someone special.

Of course there are many reasons people are happy in big cities. That being said singles may find it difficult to meet other singles and get stuck in their day to dat routine. I lived in LA and was spending 2–3 hours a day driving in traffic to get to my job. So of course I had no time to try and meet new people.

Elite Connections complaints about dating in a big city are the same as a majority of my friends in New York and Los Angeles. They would tell me the exact same stories and complaints about dating. They talk about how time consuming it is to commute from work to home and that they don’t have any spare time left to try and meet new people. Therefore because of this limited time issue, I’ve noticed more matchmaking agencies and online dating apps become particularly common in big cities versus smaller towns.

Most people believe it’s easy to meet single people going to clubs or dating online but that’s not the case. Dating online is a job in its self. Its also truly difficult to escape your regular off work routine and jump outside of your comfort zone. We all have our group of people and our hang out spots, but it’s not so easy to go to new places just to meet new people as you may think.

In the end, if you are searching for love in in a large city, you may have a stronger shot with a matchmaking agency! There’s plenty of singles out there, but the genuine trick is in knowing which one of them to give your attention to! Using a good matchmaker could help you meet people more efficiently so you stop wasting your energy and time meeting people that are nothing like they post online.
