All I can think when I walk down the street in New York City is, “That was the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in my life”…and then it happens again on the next block.

But obviously there’s a HUGE difference between living there and just visiting for a few days here and there. Which is why these tweets are so on-point. They sum up what it’s like dating in the country’s biggest city, and it seems like it’s a little…complicated.

Let’s take a look, shall we?

1. Why is it always this way?

2. Might as well give it a shot.

3. Ain’t that the truth?

14. It’s convenient.

15. Just one single tear…

Yikes, maybe it’s not as fun as I’ve made it out to be in my mind, huh?
