I'm newly out to my parents and brother and I would like to start dating once I give my family some time to process the news. As an unexperienced guy in this community, I was wondering where / how you first met your future boyfriend / girlfriend? How we answer the question based on your better relationships - lol.
I met my bf through an online dating site. Over a year and a half later I'd say it worked out pretty well
I voted "other", because the best relationships I've had, have all started at random. Getting to know a person and suddenly feeling a spark, pursuiting that spark and eventually ending up together. I met most of them through going to school, and some of them through friends or online, but not on dating sites, just random social media.
Gay friendly bar (since there are no gay bar), he's my 1st and current boyfriend. It's been 4 months and i intend to keep him indefinitely social media and dating apps aren't working at all for me, most of them just want hookups and i haven't once met a guy that actually want to have just a date or dinner with no bedroom expectation
I originally met my current boyfriend on a college visit in which I saw my school's LGBTQ Resource Center. Then this fall semester, many of my friends from high school became friends with him as well as me, we have many mutual good friends through the Resource Center, we were both involved with social justice topics, he flirted with me for about a month and I was oblivious, then finally I gave him a chance during a movie night with friends and I let him cuddle with me, and the night after that we're boyfriends. College does amazing things for you if you let it. We've been going for a solid three months now! To clearly answer OP's question, it was a mix of mutual friends and LGBTQ events
We started dating because of social media creeping but I originally met my current girlfriend on a forum (not this one) that was not in any way related to dating. We were friends for about four years before we developed feelings for each other.
I've only ever had online boyfriends. So I chose other and mutual friends since I met them on other websites that weren't dating websites. I don't think they were very serious except for this one time. I haven't "dated" anyone in a really long time. I keep hoping? It would be nice to have a bf offline.
My best relationships were thanks to video games My weirdest "relationships" were thanks to Tumblr My worst relationships were thanks to college
My last relationship was already in the making so to speak but it was not confirmed until after attending a formal dinner party event and afterwards, he asked me to go for a walk on the beach alone with him and that is where the relationship began from that point on.
