She also finds it easier to connect outside of Vancouver: Although she works at the Bottleneck and comes in contact with a great number of men, she finds most her age are married.

Sebastien Lessard, 37, who came to Vancouver from Quebec City seven years ago, can attest to the intimidation factor.

EliteSingles members: committed to long-lasting love.

Throw in the French accent and the wry sense of humour, and Lessard just might be the total package. But he gets frustrated sometimes. They believe their own conclusions about what a good guy is and what non-relationship material is; some weird criteria. Generalizations obscure the fact that there are so many people with different interests.

He has a dapper geek-chic style: Shauna Miller, 37, a registered nurse, is taking a break from dating to do some soul searching about what she wants. Blaming the city is an easy way of putting the onus on something else. Sue Seminew, a professional high-end matchmaker in Vancouver, believes there are certain variables here that do add to the challenge.

Almost every major dating market has more women than men, and our city is visibly ethnic with a high representation among Asian and South Asian. Compared to Montreal and Toronto, our downtown is small. We also tend to discount the outlying areas.

We were recently ranked the worst-looking city in terms of dress. Both men and women can look like crap, with both parties guilty of judging and misinterpreting.

Women that are open about race are going to be more successful here. Turning away from blue collar is another mistake. Vancouver is not a head-office power centre. Men have been doing that for years. I suggest people look in Burnaby, Whistler, Squamish. All the boys need some work, but we can impart that.
