I want more gay friends.

I volunteer as tribute?

 

Aye me too

As much as I like EC but I would like to find at least one mate in the real world

 

Same. I either constantly end up in situations without gay people, or have terrible gaydar and I don't know which it is, because I've yet to identify a gay person in situations I haven't deliberately put myself in because there are loads of LGBT people there.

Oh, for a friend who understands the first fucking thing about me.

 

I've never really known any (openly) gay people aside from relatives.

 

I know the feeling. I only have one close friend that falls under GSM (gender/sexual minority)

 

It's similar with me, I don't know anyone who is gay IRL, but having EC and the people on there to talk to help soooo much.

 

pick me, pick me!!!

 

I humbly volunteer my friendship in the name of LGBT solidarity...

 

2 gay friends? I don't even know any LGBT right now. But ya I'll gladly be added to your list XD

 

I don't have any close gay friends but I have family members who are gay and trans.

Lucky for me, I'm out to most of my friends and they're cool with it soo I can discuss things with them.

The only ones I know are my exes lol I mean..I know people who are gay but they aren't my friends. I might not actually be very far from you OP.

 

I'm dealing with same situation. From a small town so I am lucky to have any friends so I'm not too picky with things like that, or I at least don't let it get to me.

I don't know where you are from, but if it is a well populated area it shouldn't be that hard to meet another gay person. Try being friendlier at work and school.

Also, you could try to come out to your friends at the moment, depending on how they would react. They may not be gay but you can still talk to them about things, especially if they knew about you.

Sometime's it's more about using what you have than trying to get more.

Still understand though not being able to talk to anyone about it, and the need to want another friend in the same situation, but sometimes you just make due with what you have, especially if you want to get over feeling negative over something. If there isn't a whole lot you can do to attain what you want try shifting your needs or making your current situation more suitable to what you want; whether that is telling your friends, trying social network sites to meet people in your area, or just being happier that you have access to online help. A lot of people don't even get internet or computer access and I couldn't imagine being gay, living in a small town, and not having that. Life would be impossible.
