How do I meet new people, and guys to date? (gay male)

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I recommend meetup.com as a way to simply get out and “meet people”. What happens after that, happens, and more power to you if it does. But you just need to get out and meet people, and finding “non romance-based” social activities that you can enjoy with others who enjoy the same thing, both gay and straight, is a good way to widen your circle of acquaintances. I highly recommend it, and it’s free. You can also be as anonymous as you want.
