The
search for your special someone
There's
no denying it: Members of the gay and lesbian community are significant
contributors to the community of online dating. But before you start
checking out the profiles online, let's consider what most of us
are looking for in a date.
5
things not to reveal on the first date
It's
happened to all of us: You're excited about that first date, but
it ends up being a total disaster. You may have a good laugh about
it later, but right now all you can ask is, “What happened?"
Putting
it out there for all to see
For many of us, giving and receiving affection is one of the best
parts of having an intimate relationship, and this may range anywhere
from a hand on your partner's knee to a big, juicy kiss.
He
couldn’t keep his eyes off other guys
We
met at Caribou Coffee—in the gay ‘hood. My first time
there—what better place for an infrequent first date then someplace
I’d never been. But it was better than trying to carry on a
conversation in a smoke-filled bar where I could hardly hear a word.
Isn’t
honesty just plain easier?
So
you’ve had that all-important first chat. You even received
an “I’m glad to meet you” email. Good start. It’s
hard to meet someone who wants to date—especially in the online
gay community.
Can
you be friends with your ex?
Last
year, my ex-boyfriend Ricky came to visit after living in Germany
for three years. I was excited to see him and glad that he contacted
me, but I'll also admit I was hoping we might get ... reacquainted,
so to speak.
Does
age truly matter?
Recently,
my friend Jerry starting dating a man who's ten years older than
he is. These two guys really like each other, they have a lot in
common, and there's a strong mutual attraction; everyone who sees
them together says that they seem really happy.
Ready
for a heart-to-heart?
I
suspect that Cupid doesn’t have a sexual preference; that’s
a human quality. But you haven’t made that heart-to-heart connection
yet.
15
reasons to trade in your boyfriend
You
know it’s time to trade in your boyfriend for a terrier when…
Dumped
and down
We’ve
all been there — dumped and down. The one with whom we planned
to grow old has decided not to love us anymore. For whatever reasons.
It doesn’t even matter right now. We just don’t feel good
about ourselves. We don’t know what to do.
