So guys I have a problem.
I went out yesterday and again they robbed me, this time was worst, this asshole invited me to spend the night with him and I did, like a complete idiot, then he said he was going to get me something for my hiccups,(I hiccup like mad for some reason sometimes), and never returned, so I felt asleep and everything. Then I wake up and go to pay for the room, and bam, credit card is gone. Then I checked and the guy spend around $500 before I could report the robbery. I feel like such an idiot, and I think I'll never go out again, this happens to often and I just have no one to go with me, being alone makes me a painfully easy target for these bastards. All I got was his underwear and a telephone number I won't even care to check because its so obviously fake.
Wanting to be with someone has made me do things I would have never imagine to do, but for what? for this? I'm sick and tired of this shit, the gay scene can go and die in a corner for all I care.
That sucks. Some people out there are just scumbags. What are your options now? Are those five hundred dollars gone for good?So guys I have a problem.

I think I am starting to like flamboyant gay guys. Last night I was watching Locked up raw on msnbc and they did a segment on Orange County jail and in it was the cutest guy Marcus Cash. It's a bit weird seeing so many gay men in jail but Marcus is just too cute.

Darn, I missed your post back then...somehow:Back in September, I linked to three pictures of myself in this thread asking people their honest opinions regarding my looks. I wasn't very confident, and was deep within my shell. I hadn't dated men before then, and had just created an online dating profile to rectify that. Since that time, I've gained more self-esteem, came out to my mother and friends, and I fell insanely in love. Despite being scared out of my mind at first, it was all worth it and I'm glad I put myself out there. When I have more time, I'll post the full story for those interested. Here's to what I hope is the best year of my adult life so far.
Wow...Hello all,
I decided to step out of my cocoon and try my hand at online dating this week. I created a profile (which I posted in the okcupid thread for feedback but went unnoticed), and truth be told, I don't know the first thing on how to go about it (been single most of my life; I'm bi, but more in the men direction I'd say). May I ask for your merciless judgement on the pictures I used for the profile? I don't consider myself particularly good looking, so I'm hoping the impression I make with the written word sells, though I'd still like the pictures to try and do the job.
Bah, I'll just post them:

Two: http://goo.gl/KlbFX
Three: http://goo.gl/Jfj6b (I fucking love muffins, ok?)
Critique away.

I gave it at least a minute. Does the video ever say what he's imprisoned for?#MESS. I closed the tab after 5 seconds haha.

He stole credit cards and tried to buy stuff with them.
What. The fuck. I hope I'd get extradited if I was ever convicted.
.Most of them are looking for model-looking pips.
Side note, that show generally has a... bad idea about what being gay is. As in, "transgender people = same thing as gay people" and "it's a lifestyle choice" bad. Somehow I still keep coming back to watch it, though...I think I am starting to like flamboyant gay guys.

Sorry to hear this. Things like these make it easy to loose faith in people. :/
You should never bring anything valuable (especially credit cards) when you go and meet new people.
Are you sure you don't have any means to find the guy? Maybe there was a monitoring in the hotel you were staying in.
That sucks. Some people out there are just scumbags. What are your options now? Are those five hundred dollars gone for good?
Maybe this is Mantidor's guy.
been watching HGTV lately.
and minus the mouth thing i found then doable.

Ain't that the truth. I get more responses when I put a good looking guy's photo on my online dating profile rather than my own.I gave up on online dating. I just couldn't get them to respond. Most of them are looking for model-looking pips. Relationships don't matter anymore

Guys pretending to want a friendship (or relationship) but actually wanting instant sex are pretty bad too. Honestly, it's okay to look for whatever you want, but if a profile says --FRIENDS ONLY-- then maybe it means something.
Yeah, why do some people do that?
And they get pissed off when it turns out you ARE looking for friends. Honestly, it's hard to not punch them in the face.
There was this guy who supposedly was into languages, so there I was leading the most one-sided conversation ever about how I like the sound of languages with simple vowel systems and stuff, then I realize he doesn't care because he's touching my knee and grinning like an idiot. My face automatically and strongly entered a state of "do not want" that pretty much ended the date, it was hilarious.
the profiles I dislike the most are those that have in them
" I found the love of my life so don't bother me with your indecent proposals"
I'd like to write to them:
"then what the fuck are you doing in an online DATING site? have friends here? bring them over to facebook, this isn't a place to be looking for friends, most of us are single and hoping to find love, sex or both. If you can't offer either, why waste everyone's time? go and enjoy your love"
dunno, maybe is an overreaction but I just don't like the mindset.

EDIT: before you all kill me, I mean that when a guy is partnered, everyone else can look for friends and see what goes on from there.
Do you guys ever use Meetup.com to meet a bunch of guys at once for like bowling, biking, rugby, whatever? Or if you're lucky enough to have a LGBT community center local, the outings scheduled from there?
I found that it's less pressure, way less online weirdos, and more op to organically hook up with the good ones. And you know you already like something in common. I hate that so many of you are hitting so many dating walls.![]()

I've tried something like that once and they were the most boring group of people I've ever met. Most interesting people don't do stuff like that because they already have plenty of friends.
I'm a member of a gay biker group, it helped me a lot to know more people.
I joined an adventurer group once and met a ton of cool guys. Mostly career oriented/professional guys interested in biking/kayaking/hiking/etc. It could get pricey depending where they decided to go, but I was living paycheck to paycheck that summer. A lot of them also played softball on the gay league which is also a great way to expand your social network.

I'm quite depressed these days, so don't see much trough my question : have you ever thought of getting infected with HIV on purpose? I'm starting to be overwhelmed with the whole scene, and it seems to be the easier avenue.

Exactly, and you can expect some of the members to match you with their friends. Anyone looking to create a videogame club in Montréal? It would keep me out of trouble.

How would that be any easier?

Since I had also become fed up with online dating, I joined a "gaymer" group on Meetup. It was pretty hard to make my way into the group since they mostly kept to the people they knew best, but I managed to make a decent friend. Of course, he later says that he has a crush on me and tries to court me, so I have to awkwardly friendzone him.Do you guys ever use Meetup.com to meet a bunch of guys at once for like bowling, biking, rugby, whatever?

What the fuck? No. Don't do it. That's a common mindset in the bug chaser/indiscriminate bareback community, but didn't think I would see it here.I'm quite depressed these days, so don't see much trough my question : have you ever thought of getting infected with HIV on purpose?
