How to Date Gay!

Enter the Online Gay Dating Revolution

If you have been sitting around debating whether or not to start looking for love online there are some things you should know. The first of those things is that everyone is doing it. You may not believe it, but nearly everyone on the Internet has some type of personal ad. It makes sense for you to have one, too. It's cheaper than having a personal ad in a newspaper, plus you're allowed more space to describe yourself and what you are looking for, and you can add (and view) pictures. The best thing is that placing a personal ad online is going to allow you to hook up with men as close or as far away as you choose. Meanwhile, an ad in the paper will reach your area only.

However, when it's time to jump into the dating scene you need to consider a few things. If you're trying online dating you need to decide what you're trying to accomplish - and consider what you're willing to divulge online. A good rule of thumb is to be as honest as possible. You don't want to end up offering an AOL-type of profile. You know the kind - where they say they're tall, handsome, and have a large dick and then they show up at your door - short, balding, old, and in need of a microscope to take a leak. Think of it like this, adding an inch is okay (because most people will do it) but adding a mile just isn't fair!

Here are some other things to consider when you decide to take the plunge and enter the dating world on the Internet.

You Can Actually Get to Know Him
If most men meet another guy they are attracted to their first response is going to be to flirt and attempt to get to know one another. However, in many cases you don't attempt to get to know one another as well as you should before something happens! The Internet takes care of this issue in many ways. You must agree that it's to your advantage to learn a little bit more about the people (that you want to meet) before you actually do meet them. This means you are going to have 'online' conversations and other correspondence with them. This is going to teach you things about them - things that you may have never thought to ask had you met them in public before you had the opportunity to converse with them.

Chatting, Personals, Email, Oh My!
The great thing about meeting on the Internet is there are numerous ways to do it. For instance, you can check out chat rooms. There are many out there, and tons of them are geared towards homosexual men. Some men are going to love chatting online, while others will not particularly like chat rooms, but fear that there may not be too many alternatives out there. If you do not want to go through the drama and perils of meeting tons of people (that you wish you hadn't) in an online chat room, then you can place an online personal. This allows people to contact you. If you like the person that contacts you then you can email them back - and if you don't, well, then, you can just click 'delete' and you are done with them! It's simple and easy because once you make your profile then you don't have to do anything else. If it's good (and hopefully it will be) then you'll have the advantage of letting the men come to you, instead of having to do all the searching yourself.

Personal Essentials
Whether you decide to hang out in chat rooms, or not, it still never hurts to place up a personal ad or a profile about yourself. There are a few things you are going to need to consider if you're looking to get a good response. These are things that you would be likely to look for yourself, if you were browsing ads, so do the men a favor and see that your ad has everything they are looking for - and more.

Spelling is Everything!
First impressions online are often made by how you write, and your style of communication! A profile written by a man that cannot spell profile is going to spell disaster. No man is going to be interested in another man who is apparently lacking in intelligence, or who cares less about impressing you. The best thing you can do for yourself is to write a personal ad that is laid out neatly; spelled correctly; has accurate punctuation; and is both witty and charming. See that you are clear in the information you give by being precise in what you are looking for in a partner, and what you have to offer them in return. You'll be grateful that you did.

Pictures are Essential
Almost every personals site will tell you that the ads with pictures will get more replies then the ones without. With this in mind, you should have at least one picture - if not more - on your profile. Try to make sure they represent you well and that you are clothed. As nice as nude photos are, if you only have one on your profile - and it's of the bottom half of you - then it's going to be hard to assess the entire situation :). For best results try to go with a head shot and a full body shot. You can save the racy photos on a request basis, and at your own discretion.

Honesty is the Best Policy
No matter what, you should make very sure that you are honest and clear about who you are and what you want. If you're just looking for sex, there are going to be many guys out there that will want to help you with your request. However, there is no need to lead a nice guy on if he is looking for love and you're not! The better you represent yourself in your profile the better chance you will have at finding that special partner that you are looking for.

Dear Friend,

I have a confession to make. There was a time in my life when the thought of being intimate with another man was the scariest, most overwhelming thought imaginable!

I wanted more than anything else to make love to a man - but I was terribly worried that whatever I did would be all wrong!

I desperately wanted to know what makes a man tick - not just his body, but every part of him: his mind; his wants; his needs; his soul - and yes, I also wanted to know what it takes to satisfy him sexually.

The funny thing about being a gay virgin is this: even though you're a man, you really have no clue how to satisfy another man. The thought of going to bed with a man can be nerve-wracking when you don't know what to do. Many men are naturally shy about this, and understandably so. After all, books on gay sex aren't available on every street corner!
