Meeting People

I'm new to the whole being out thing and I'm wondering where people go to meet people. I've been out to a few LGBT things but the pool seems really small and there were few guys that I clicked with. Do most people need to rely on the internet?

Edit: I mean meeting people in terms of relationships and dating.

It all depends on your community. You've got to try with friends first to see whats out there...Some good ideas would be through volunteer work, jobs, school, or whatever routines you like to do. See whos out there in that sense. You could also try meetup.com - a great resource for individuals to meet up in person do to activities they all like.....And as weird as this sounds..you could try *******.com or some other site....although thats so hit and miss between old and creepy or more our age. I'm currently doing a study abroad for the semester in Australia...and so I've been trying to meet people in every way possible. I'm taking plunges and putting myself out there, I would never do in the States. Its all because I ask myself....What do I have to loose? I actually did meet a friend on *******....just a friend though, which is all i wanted....Also remember, it takes time to develop these relationships. I thought since my time is so limited here, I was impatient and needed to make friends faster...but Im meeting plenty of more people in my classes as the semester evolves. My favorites are the chance encounters. Just see where things go...and don't be afraid to try plenty of new things...so what if you make a fool of yourself along the way?

I mostly rely on the internet. I have a couple bisexual friends (by pure chance) but most of the gay friends I've met have been from events posted on the net or dating sites/clubs in this area. Asking friends to keep on the lookout for you also helps.
