MEET MARKET
Tim, a 21-year-old student from San Diego, is in NYC for the summer. He keeps busy as an intern on Wall Street, but would love to meet a local lady, too — preferably a Scarlett Johansson look-alike who digs hot dogs.
Tiffany, 21
student
She is: on nerd alert. “I tend to be attracted to those who have nerdy interests.”
She wants: an outdoor dude. “He should also like to backpack, hike, bike and play all types of sports.”
Fun times: reading, having dinner with friends, being outdoors, cooking, dancing, going to museums and traveling
Best asset: her hair
Biggest flaw: her indecisiveness
Ideal date: dinner followed by a long walk home and snuggling in bed while watching “Planet Earth” on DVD
Kristina, 20
intern
She is: an occasional bookworm. “Sometimes I’d rather read a good book than go out.”
She wants: a man with a plan. “I’m looking for a genuinely nice, goal-oriented, mature and outgoing guy.”
Turn-off: arrogance
Dating disaster: Her ex-boyfriend was sitting at the table next to her and her date!
Fun fact: She loves vampires.
Guilty pleasure: watching entire seasons of TV shows on DVD from start to finish in bed
Melissa, 23
hotel hospitality manager
She is: a busy bee. “I work a lot, but still manage to maintain a healthy social life.”
She wants: a guy who stands tall. “He has to be taller than me. I’m 5-foot-6 and I simply need someone at least 5-foot-7.”
Fun times: going to concerts, trying new restaurants and bars, traveling and going to baseball games
Best assets: her eyes and sense of humor
Biggest flaw: getting bored easily
Pet peeve: cheap people
