I find okcupid pretty interesting as well, even though most of the (gay) friends  I've made online came from specific social networks, like last.fm or goodreads.com   🙂

I hope that helps in some way....  :laugh:

what about gayromeo ?

I am surprised that so many other sites exist.
gayromeo has the RADAR now,
I live in a small place in Thailand now and there are always some guys online within 5 km (3 miles)
Before I lived in India, same thing there. It's free and has TOO MANY search functions (haha, no need to use them all,
but you could look for someone with a big uncut dick, a beard, no body hair, total top for fisting in your village …)
Maybe manhunt is more popular in the US, but I see no reason to use any other site.
Even found a tour guide - and ended up in a 3some.... last week.

For a bit of live cam fun you can try geilboy.chaturbate com  when waiting for a reply

My biggest problem was where I lived, I didn't know of any gay community and it was almost an hour drive to Chicago, more if traffic was bad.

you don't have to post a face pic. just chat first, then move on to giving your ym (for example) and chat some more and maybe exchange pics if you have learned to trust each other.

they also have a forum but it's boring unlike the guys4men forum before the site was taken over by planet romeo.

my friends from planet romeo and i have a facebook account where we continue our discussions/rants/banters/etc.

i also have a manjam account but it's not as good as guys4men.

I'd recommend the latter cause it's a far better website usability-wise.

There's no need to have sex with anyone you 've only just met so take it easy.
If you arrange for a meeting with someone you could just go and do what you normally do like having a coffee/beer or whatever.
Being in a familiar scenario of places you normally visit and things you normally do should help you feel less nervous.

@rR:

any help for those hiding in the closet?
~rR

Yes… COME OUT OF THE CLOSET!!   😉

(unless you live in a country where they will kill you or throw you in prison for the rest of your life - in which case... MOVE)

sound advice, but not something one wants to hear when closeted.

but being out makes is so much easier on others and especially oneself. most people you know well already think you are anyway and are just waiting for you to make it official.

i lost a couple friends when i came out, but it just showed that they weren't really friends to begin with (they were catholic)

squirt.org is a good one for just hookups.

i met my last b/f over there, about a month ago.
They're free otherwise (but is on payement on evening hours) try also bearwww.com
😘
(but, of course, we can use this forum for datings too, i think  😉 )

Its a rather secure and free dating site.

Imagine Googlemap,
with people posting their personality/description,
you can try to scope out people within your area.
Get to know them, talk to them before exchanging email, pic and so on.

And i am so glad i went there..

It's not an online dating site though.

i guess it's a matter of luck.. dunno...

Gaydar is uk-centric(australia too) and gayromeo euro-centric especially germany ...guys4men.com has great forum but lousy dating results and manhunt is a pure meat market but if that is what you want it may be ok. The other sites like gaymatches etc are mostly pay-only so you don't get anything without a subscription. It take a dim view of that and usually that means they have limited reach limited result limited in general - not worth the sub. Other than that there are fetish sites like recon but it's fetish and a date for a relationship potential may be unlikely....hey that's the gay internet as I know it anyway. Someone may want to expand on this or offer their own "go through" of the sites..

Sex is always better with someone you love. I just joined luvmatch.org, I will let you know how the online dating goes. Thank you for your replies. John xxxx

i have few friend said they use those kind of site and got a date. other half said it didnt work so well for them and regrets that they wasted money on it. I'm not 100% convinced this kind of system will work out so well.

unless the site is 100% free, then go for it.
