    It's frustrating and annoying. I don't want to keep getting hurt.Unfortunately the gays
    that are around me or I know of are bitchy,flamboyant even bordeline cross-dressing.
    Nothing wrong with that but it doesn't get me off emotionally or sexually.

    I always imagined another MAN,just like me as a lover. Someone who is athletic,witty,
    funny and emotionally strong. Unfortunately most of them are straight.What do I do?
    I'm an 18 year old guy.

    I'm getting really depressed and lonely over this lately.And statistics say only 2% of the
    population is gay and make that 1% since I only go for males.Will I EVER find someone?

    I know I am exactly the same with attraction,
    Femininity in men just doesnt get me going.

    Just dont give up, search for local lgtb club, go to a bar, try online?

    I feel your pain bro, lifes tough just dont give up

    Its ok, your not shallow at all..
    There are plenty of guys like us, its just finding them is the problem haha,

    I guess if you lived in a big city it would be soo much easier:slight_smile:

    There is nothing worse than having a crush on a straight guy, but dont despair

    I do live in a big city but its not easy at all. I've been open to meeting new people.
    I get my hopes up and then get hurt. If only I lived in Toronto.I feel like such a shallow
    ***hole for complaining about this.But I can't help it. How long do i have to wait.

    Other places always look better...
    I see thats really annoying when you try for something...

    Everytime you get hurt tell yourself they arent worth it because you are better and something nicer will come along..

    Just dont fall for every guy if you dont knoe if he is gay or not, spend some more time with gay people and maybe you will be in luck?

    I dont have anything in common with most gay people,I prefer sports,action/slasher movies,metal and all that.Most gay oriented venues seems to be frequented by guys
    that are flamboyant.

    Although I have not been to such places,
    I really get what you mean!
    I guess if you are so straight acting how would other straight acting gay guys know you were gay?

    But usually you can tell..:wink:

    I'm not sure what to suggest bro, maybe try online?

    Yeah I totally understand you. Unfortunately, finding a masculine, gay guy is kinda tedious and it may happen once in a blue moon D: however, maybe you could try to get to know a little bit better some guy you're interested in. Sometimes we assume some guy is straight, but we may be completely wrong! I know this is gonna be too cliché to say, but be patient: you'll find your Mr. Right in the moment you least expect it. :slight_smile:

    Good Luck!

    I sort of find it ironic that all my tastes in many 'guy' things are established and yet I don't care for being a guy. I'd rather do all of them as a woman. You never quite get what you expect or want, huh? I hope you find the manly man of your dreams. :kiss:

    Totally understand. I haven't come out yet, but I crush hard on straight girls. The gay/bisexuals at my high school are very...well, some of them are in it to rebel against their parents. The others are just not my type.

    But dude I echo the poster above me, you have plenty of time.

    As life unfolds, we end up having relationships here and there, but they can often have a beginning, and an end. This in itself can be painful and tiring. I myself am 45 and I've never as yet been in love - not properly. I thought I was once, but I was kidding myself - I was in love with the notion of being in love, so much so that I convinced myself that I loved a particular woman (who in the end caused me much more stress than happiness, ultimately). So maybe 'holding out' for that one special person is not such a bad idea, just be patient and don't expect them to come right away. I now think the important thing is to keep your heart open to that possibility - which it sounds like you are doing. I don't think I was ever really open to it, I sort of 'guarded' my heart from anyone who could actually love me back, and instead, subconsciously kept attracting folks who would end up causing me grief - but that's another story.

    By the way, I think the number of gay folks is higher than 2%.

    Im just so tired of getting hurt over and over and over and over and over and over again.
    I just want to find someone who I undedstand and who understands me. Since now seems like
    i have no one,not even my family.

    I am tired of investing my time getting to know someone and then my efforts turn out to be
    in vain because they are ALWAYS straight. Fems are always the openly gay ones. But I dont find
    them attractive,not at all. Like how am i ever gonna find someone.I apologize for sounding like
    a shallow ***hole but thiz is how I feel and i got no one to talk to about this.

    You like what you like, no doubt about that. Somebody out there will be a good fit for you. Just have to keep moving and keep your eyes and heart open.

    It's tough man, and trust me, you're not the only one in this situation. This might sound like an empty platitude, but try not to put too much pressure on yourself. You're still young, and the future is not hopeless.

    Keep looking my friend, and don't give up.

    Its like the guys I like dont exist at all. Its like Im doomed to be either
    settle for something I dont want or die alone.I dont even want to try
    anymore. I dont even know where to search anymore or I should
    just give up.
