Nervous.... Going to an lgbt event! I'm so nervous, what of I feel like I don't belong? I just desperately want to connect with people from the community irl.
Good luck. I haven't gotten myself to that stage yet. Too much of life's other stuff is just in the way rt now.
Guys, it was great!!! Very comfortable, easygoing and welcoming group. There were people of all ages (small group). It was a writing workshop, which also made me feel like I could tap into something I really love to do. There was a woman ... ��. I don't know if she was with someone (her gf?), or if it was a friend... I had this impression she was really checking me out, like glancing at me a little longer than she did others. We chatted and it was nice, warm easy conversation. She is *very* cute. I don't know whether it meant anything, or if I'll see her at future events... But it was nice feeling like I had a real flirtation/exchange of interest with a sweet cute woman. Ah! Was great. I'm planning on attending more evrnts eith this group if I can.
YES, yes homo! I was so shy so I didn't flirt well, but I made myself have the courage to sit close to her and to mostly make eye contact. Ah...I wouldn't mind seeing her again. It was a really nice feeling talking to her.
I recently learned from some Wikihow (yeah my academic sources :icon_bigg) article that looking someone in the eye and then looking down is considered flirtation. Wow. So I have been flirting with half of the world and I didn't know it until now :icon_bigg Otherwise that event sounds really cool, happy for you
Yay, congrats!! I'm planning on going to my first LGBT event next week (a knitting group) and I'm so excited for it, though a bit nervous too! This gives me hope that it'll be okay.
