That's why Hornet is the superior app! Plus you can browse other cities, not necessarily your own. I might start dating again :P This has been the absolute longest hiatus ever. But then I'm not really itching for a date.

Hornet is a great place to get nudes of cute guys.

It's also the best app out of all the other gay apps.

You'd be surprised! Is it very, very unlikely? Yes. Will you encounter people who think "I'm looking for friends" actually means "lol I just don't want to admit I want SEX RIGHT NOW IN YOUR CAR"? Yes, you will. But it's not impossible :P

So what do I use? :/

Try sex neutral online communities, maybe based on sexuality + actual life interest. It's been a while since I've dabbled, but I know communities like that exist.

But just don't go to sex-driven networks and get mad when most everyone is only interested in trading dick pics and getting it in. That's what these sites are for.
 
Depending on where you are, sometimes you have no choice but to use those sites. I often read people advicing, for example, "joining a gay sports club in your school / area". I mean... that's a great idea! Except there's no such thing around here :P And in the end those sites / apps do have the option to state you're looking for friends. That most people use them for one purpose is different.

I dunno. I go to a gay community and only see flirting almost 24/7 when it's not even focused on that.

Gar Bars != The Gay Community

That's not what I ment with my comment. Ive floated in and out of some gay communites online and all I ever see EVEN WITH FRIENDS is flirting. I mean im not saying everyone is like that but just some ive been in.

Let's talk grindr.

Who uses it? Do you just use it for hookups? Or do you actually find yourself meeting people for whatever—friendships, dating, sex? I've dabbled with creating a profile, but never actually met anyone through it. Just wondering if/how people use it.
Click to expand...

Never used, met my current boyfriend (of recently 2 years) before I had a smartphone. Probably would have used it a lot more before if I had one though. A good friend of mine has a love/hate relationship with it, usually deletes it every now and then. Still managed to meet his current boyfriend through it though. So it's not all bad I guess.

Honestly don't understand the "hate" those kind of apps get, their initial purpose is pretty much hookups, so most people using those will look for that.

My experiences with a local gay interest group kind of soured me on the idea of going out of my way to specifically befriend gay people with a focus on the orientation itself. I had a really weird time with the person running the group (since he was being pretty...aggressively flirty, and I even ended up going out on a "date" with him once), and I later found out that he had pretty much slept with everyone there. I don't have anything against promiscuity or anything like that, but it just weirded me out. There was a hypersexual, almost...incestuous nature to the group itself, but it might just be an exception.

But there have been other similar experiences where I have to counter aggressive flirtation with having to friendzone people, and it gets tiring after a while. I guess that's what women have to go through daily. I hate feeling so alienated from many gay communities, though.

That's kind of my thing with overly flirty groups. I can be a flirt anyone can tell you that. But because im not super good looking or even decently good looking a lot of it gets ignored and I get pushed back. So at that point yes you feel like an outsider cause they already have this flirt circle and there is nothing you can do to fit in unless you suddenly look great.
 
I didn't get the Chris Pratt hype before, but I do now. I just saw Guardians of the Galaxy and he was charming and hot. Great movie too.
 
Pfff guys my nightmare almost came true today, I'm glad it didn't happen.

I was checking OKCupid because Mystic Theurge recommended it and then my father bursts into my room and as my laptop is near the door I panicked and try to close the window but my touchpad slided more than I wanted and just made the window smaller and you could still see what it was. I inmediatly close the window but my father noticed I was hiding something and then I saw that in this window I was seeing this thread and the name was right in front of him and inmediatly closed this tab too. I don't know what my father thinks but I think his first impression is that I was looking at porn (which wouldn't make sense because I didn't lock the door, I had the lights turned on and I was looking at my phone lol). I hope he doesn't suspect that I'm hiding something, but I think he will ask about this on another day.

TLDR; I almost got caught by my father about my sexuality.

I was looking at guy pics, come on, it was obvious.

This thread doesn't give it away but I don't want him to suspect that I'm part of this community, though he doesn't even know what LGBT is.

Motivation to transform your body like that. BAM. Start working out
Nothing wing at looking at pictures of guys
 
Well, just noticed that there are very few people in Mexico using OKCupid, just saw like 15 profiles and then it was just US accounts. Shame :(

My father does not follow the same logic, and the profile say gay anyway. I'm glad that nothing else happened, it could have ruined everything

Maybe? I don't know what that is.
 
Speaking of food, I made the most delicious pizza this evening, supreme.
Mmmm Pizza :)

I wish I could've saved you a slice daripad but I was too hungry.

Also sorry to hear about your situation with your dad. That really sucks:(
 
Wow, I wasn't expecting Guardians of the Galaxy to be so good! Not that I expected it to be bad, but still. Rocket Raccoon and Groot were the best.

Didn't expect much out of the movie either, but man is it one of the funniest movies of the year. I did like Rocket in the movie, though the whole cast was great, and yeah Chirs Pratt is charming and hot, kinda squeed a little inside seeing him shirtless in the movie.

It seems to be working fine for me (had a friend from Grindr over yesterday) so I think I'll continue to use this app. It seems the guys already in a relationship are the ones usually looking for friends.
