It’s really a numbers game. If you’re in the Bay Area, I would recommend moving to another region, or to move to SF or Oakland proper (not the suburbs). The Bay Area is very male heavy because tech is so male heavy and tech dominates the economy. Austin, Denver or any of the East Coast cities (+Chicago) have lots of single adults and a more balanced mix of genders.

After you leave college, you’re transitioning out from a life in which you always had people around you who you went to classes with and had some shared context to form bonds.
