Okay, seriously, I am so new to this stuff. How do I go about dating? I just have no idea how to start. And on a gender related level, how and when do I tell people I'm trans?
If I new the answer to this, I would be in a relationship now Lol The 1st step is meeting people I suppose, going to a Gay Pub or at least a No Attitude Pub
Lol, I guess. Down to Hurst street, I suppose. What about internet dating? I know you can't give specific sites, but just the general concept.
From what I can gather from what people on EC have said, the people on these sites are either flirts who have no intention of meeting up, or Guys who are not looking for a relationship just a quick :***: So I don't know, it makes you weary doesn't it
Yeah :/ Just so difficult to figure out how to meet people, you know? I don't have a job (though I'm looking), and I don't seem to have much of a social life either.
I go to a youth group. But there aren't many people I'm interested in there. I'm considering branching out into some other LGBT stuff, but there isn't a whole lot of stuff here for young people for some ridiculous reason.
Looks like Hurst Street is a good option then, even though I am considering going to another Gay Pride event, in another part of the UK
There are one or two dating sites out there where people are actually looking for relationships, not just hook-ups. I know several people who have meet their current partner on one I'm on now, but I can't say I've had much luck. As for meeting people, if you're looking for something meaningful and not just a one-night-stand, going to a gay venue might not be your best bet. Thought it'll take some time, you'll probably be better off trying to meet people to date the same way you make friends, however that may be. Keep at that, be open about your orientation and being open to dating, and you might meet someone who knows someone they could introduce you to. And you'll be more likely to have something in common with them than you would be if you had met them at a gay venue.
I went on my own & had a great time, it was the one place that I felt like I was not different & blended in quite nicely
It depends on how much confidence you have, when I see it on tv it makes me feel like I am a part of a big family. And seeing the other guys holding hands is such a warm feeling, but another part of me is also jealous
been down the hurt street before one of my problems was trying to hard that just causes more hurt TBH now seeing a younger guy only a year but acts allot older . online dating am not sure about had a go @ gayder put me off a bit
