We’re no relationship experts, but we’re pretty sure Buffalonians are some of the best fish in the sea (or at least Lake Erie)! From our food choices to our diehard devotion to local sports, here are eleven things you must know about dating someone from Buffalo.

  1. We will make you partake in snow activities.

  1. You’ll never go hungry with us.

istolethetv - Flickr We love our food in Buffalo! With over 1,000 restaurants to choose from and a large variety of choices, you’ll never have to fear the question, “Where should we go for dinner?” Guys, this also invalidates any excuse not to plan an awesome date night.

  1. We love our beer.

  1. We don’t have an accent.

  1. We’re always up for an adventure.

  1. We’re crazy loyal.

  1. We love Canada… most of the time.

  1. We love to help people out.

Alan Kotok - Flickr Speaking of neighbors… we will go out of our way to help a neighbor in need - rain, snow, sleet, or hail! It’s part of being a Buffalonian.

  1. We’ll probably take you on a Tim Horton’s date.

  1. Family is everything to us.

Kat Grigg - Flickr No matter where we roam, there is no place like home. Our family is the reason we love Buffalo so much. Our communities are close-knit, our homes are warm and friendly, and our neighbors are some of the nicest people you will ever meet.

  1. We know love.

CaptMikey9 - Flickr Not only do we live right by the honeymoon capital of the world, but we dubbed the term “Buffalove.” If you date us, you must know we are insanely proud of our city and have a love for it that no one can describe. If you’re lucky, we’ll love you just as much!

If you’re dating or married to a Buffalo local, share some of your significant others’ quirks with us!
