Sometimes I get so frustrated I keep thinking I am never going to find a mate? It drives me positively mad sometimes its like ok I want a mate I know what I like but how do I l find one??? Then there is the problem with putting my foot in my mouth, I get around a hot guy and my mouth with not work so I look like an idiot, I blush and find a way to get away so I can cry. How does a guy go about finding another guy to mate with??? Its not like I can go walking down main street with a sign on my back that says "I am gay and looking for a life partner please call this number or something like that.

That could definitely work, but I'd be very careful about who he gets with, as anyone who's slept around, especially as a guy, could be a major health risk when it comes to venereal diseases. It also depends on safe sex practices, but without the risk of pregnancy, many go without protection.

Er..........scuse me.......I thought you had someone in your life already? I know that sounds a bit off, but I thought I remember reading somewhere in this forum that you were in a relationship.

Dating sites I have found to be a mixed bag. Take Plentyoffish for example:

It's free, thats a plus. But without trying to sound offensive to our friends from the US they seem to have a much better grasp of the English language then people from Britain do, and everyone from Britain listens their hobbies as drinking, clubbing, shopping and going out with mates. Then includes 3 lines of dialogue which is all poorly written. And it;s the same for 99% of people and although i'm not open to give up clicking through clones of the same profiles is rather frustrating when your trying to find someone who stands out for you.

I have not heard from my boy friend in around 2 weeks. Yes he would say hi but nothing meaningful he was more interested in playing WoW than me so I broke it off, I want to date a guy not date a guy and WoW.

Anyways the closest bar around is sixty miles away and its a straight bar I don't know of any gay bars, anyways can't go I am to young.

Actually, I would suggest NOT going to a gay bar, as I've had problems with going there. Nearly all of the people that I've met at gay bars are going there just to pick somebody up, not for any real commitment. --Besides, I've found out over time my idea of 'socialising' is substantially differant from what many people who go to gay bars consider 'socialising', and I've found out that I really have no common interests with the people who go there.

If just getting laid is what you want, you may have some luck, though if you want something more, than this is not exactly a good idea. That being said, in some states, dance clubs in some states admit people above age 18, but if you're under the drinking age they will charge you quite a bit more for admission to offset any percieved losses of alcohol related income. --It sucks, but that's the way it is.

You're young and you found a mate already so don't worry it can happen again.
Be patient, and u meet people at "interesting events". Totally dumb example: Drama Club.

Try www.okcupid.com I've found it to be pretty good for finding people with similar interests.
