writes: So here it goes. I am a single guy with feelings for other guys, but still in the closet and its better that way for me. I am 22 now and I have never been in a relationship before or even had a boyfriend. My life is a bittersweet adventure. I am not your average gay guy. I dont hang out in gay bars or pick up men or cruise. I am not into the whole Feminine thingy. I am just a regular guy who likes relationships, romance and blah blah!. I am doing great in my studies - I mean really great. I am a club president plus other stuffs. I am a normal friendly guy who likes people. Its like I have things going on for me when it comes to this arena. But I guess what I am trying to ask is this; how come I have all the other things but I cannot find love. For GOD's sake I am 22. I am not good at gaydar and the only people I suspect are those who are extremely gay- you know what I mean. But I want just a normal straight acting guy and I cant meet one. It gets frustrating. I wanna have someone who will hold me and tell me he loves me and that I cannot find. The only consolation is from LGBT films - I have watched so many of them- which makes me happy but at the same time extremely sad as I know I dont have that. What should I do? stay unhappy forever? I am reading some of the people's questions here and I think "you must be lucky" cause you even have someone who is giving you signals or who has kissed you or something. But for me it's a sad tale. What am I to do? NB. no one has approached me before. Reply to this Question Share |

I didn't hold on to my first one tight enough and he left me =| but I'm planning to lock the next one up!(not literally lol) and you're in your early 20s! you are at your prime and you still have a lot of time ahead of youuuu and man....the more I read about your question the more similarity I feel xD well Good Luck!

I guess this is a good sign that something wonderful can happen to me out here. I guess I need to be more observant and approachable or whatever I am supposed to be. Thanks very much and I appreciate your views. I am feeling better now.. lol

Surely I wouldnt wanna be like the 36 yr old guy, hahah!. I think what I am digesting from here is, I should try to start something more than just waiting for the water to come my way. I will try to follow the advice. Thank you very much guys. it feels great now.
Muchas gracias

However, there are many gay guys out there, like yourself, who are only gay in the sence that they prefer men as dating partners. It is difficult to identify men like that, since they tend not to run around yelling:'Im gay!'
I think a good idea might be to get out of the closet and confide in a few close friends. It might be easier to share this info with girls, since they are likely to know more gay men... See, female gaydar are a bit more accurate.
Also, don't wait for people to come to you, approach attractive guys and test the waters!
Good luck, remember, you deserve to be happy, but take control, do something from your side t make things better!

Until you walk down the street singing 'I'm a little teapot' no-one is likely to approach you. I suppose you could try approaching other pretty boys instead of waiting for them to approach you, which might cut the waiting time down somewhat..
