Dating Advice in NYC. Incoming IB Analyst, 22 Year Old Guy

Hey guys,

I may be tweaking so hard, I'm kind of tired of hook up culture and I'm looking for something meaningful in a dating scene. I tried dating my senior year but it's kind of too late to really look for someone when I'm about to graduate and not many people are headed to NYC in my area. Is it tough in this profession to find someone that is respectful, humble, fit, and not a gold digger? Everywhere I look it feels that IB analysts are stereotyped as a bunch of douchebags and fuckboys. Idk I feel like I'm in a sort of quarter life crisis with having a top job at a BB, I'm 6'2, very fit, and an ex collegiate football player, produce house music, and a bunch of other stuff. But even with that it seems like it would be tough to find someone and manage the time. Kind of think that I should have focused on finding a girl in college to be a support system before going into this job. Any tips or support is helpful :)
