And the solution is?
Men with mullets and wife beater t shirts who like bowling, golf and football?

Not only Vancouver girls are so sh.tty. There are no quality guys in Vancouver

There are... it's just inconvenient to look for them.
They should be wandering the bars in packs and it should be harder to find than entourages of wannabe thugs plus all their cousins.

It's only hard to meet people in this city because people are afraid to take the chance to talk to anyone. Why not? Not every person you talk to even has to be a potential mate...a good conversation never hurt anyone too bad.
Bars are a pretty lame way of meeting people. Strike a conversation up on the street and you might surprise yourself, and maybe incrementally raise the bar for friendliness in this city..
Come on, Vancouver! WTF?!

That's if you actually buy into that there is a lack of quality people in Vancouver.

people in downtown Vancouver are usually snobby. elsewhere (rest of the lower mainland)....maybe not as bad.

While this is a completely logical statement, it doesn't mean it's widely shared. I have three sisters and all three of them immediately go on the defensive if a random guy attempts to strike up a conversation with them, even if they are attracted to them. You could explain this logic to them and it wouldn't matter because it's a built in mechanism (in their words).
Seems like grass is almost always greener on the other side of the fence. Not long ago a bunch of Cvr's were coming to Bellingham and one of the apparant allures was the women. This is funny to me because I'm completely disillusioned with them.
On the other hand, when I'm in Canada, I find women much easier to talk to. Says a female friend of a friend: "Well, you're not like alot of guys running around here whose only accomplishments are getting a good job and buying things." I think that's nonsense, but she states that the type of guys that are out doing worthwhile things aren't typically the guys that try to chat her up.
Perception's a wierd thing.

Random chatting works out better in Victoria.
You know people are relaxed and chatting just for the sake of chatting.

basically women are lazy and insecure and want me to do all the work.

I think one of the reasons why women are so resistant is because they get hollered at by so many losers it's hard to differentiate a creep player type from a normal guy. There are so many smooth talking players out there, women are just trying to protect themselves. The ones looking for something real anyhow. Sometimes the guy doesn't "seem" like a total player but is just lying through his teeth to get what he wants.
There's so many reasons why it may be. It's hard to just pinpoint one. The fact that culture has changed so much, and the fact there's not much respect for one another plays a huge part. Look at all the girls that try hard to look like porn stars in order to get noticed, but only attract the loser dudes that are looking for a trophy to show their friends. Self esteem is becoming very very low in people and it's a real shame. It's hard to find someone without emotional issues within themselves that don't allow anyone to get close. They often don't think they are worth it. This can go for both men and women.

it really isnt.

No, I don't mean that it's hard to figure out if the guy hollering is a creep or not. He most obviously is by the displaying this behavior. But there's so much trust that has been lost that when a nice guy does come along, it's hard to tell if he is being true or not. Mainly because there are so many different kinds of creeps out there. There's the ones you least expect it from that hurt you by playing games, then there's the obvious ones that basically show you right away and you just stand back knowing his intentions point blank.
It's the ones that fool you that often jade people into not trusting. There's so many guys and girls that play games in the city. Some are really good liars.

Women get approached by all kinds of men, i know , but its glaringly obvious who the losers, players, smooth talkers are. c'mon now. the signs are always there. Chicks often choose to ignore it. Date asshole after asshole , then say " there are no good men out there, men are all jerks". or "these are the only men that approach me".
You mean you cant judge someones character after years of interaction with the opposite sex?
i dont buy that one bit.
Make better choices or Approach the men you like (or think are good guys). And stop being the victim.
