Some people think Hong Kong could be a place to solve male loneliness because it has more women than men. But that idea is misleading. The numbers are high mainly because of foreign domestic helpers. These are women from the Philippines or Indonesia who come to work in Hong Kong as live-in helpers. They are not part of a dating pool. They are workers with contracts, visas and families depending on their income. To look at them as an answer to loneliness is unfair and wrong.
Hong Kong itself is not an easy place to find connection either. The men are rich. It is one of the most expensive and crowded cities in the world. People work long hours and often keep to their own circles. Many groups are based on work, school or language. Arriving there with the idea that the numbers will make dating easy is unrealistic. It can even make someone more lonely if they expect the city to provide something it cannot.
