You can’t always do better

New York City is a place where singles thrive. Everyone is attractive, on their grind and will make you believe that dating options are endless. Keeping your standards in place and not settling is ideal, but don't fool yourself into thinking you can always do better than the person you're currently dating. All relationships have ups and downs and finding someone to put up with your mood swings, bad table manners, or athletes foot isn't as easy as getting a like on Instagram.
