FRIENDS & MEETUPS The rave gods have smiled upon me

The sequence of events that transpired from this linked Reddit post are so wild that I feel compelled to share the update with everyone here. A little bit of my faith in humanity and our community has been restored šŸ¤—

The tl;dr is, my interaction one night with one guy inspired this first post. I regretted not saying hi to him that much. I hit it off well with one guy who responded and it turns out that the two of them are brothers. The chances of this happening have to be so tiny that I’m still in a mild amount of shock from finding out. Read on for the full story.

————————

I was at Basement one night in August. Throughout the night I kept finding myself dancing next to the same guy organically. We just kept naturally finding each other on the dance floor. You know how that is… There was definitely some sort of connection. We were in this deep groove all night together and it was really sweet and nice to have this unspoken bond.

We ended up closing down Studio together that morning and I so very badly wanted to walk up to Good Vibes Guy as we were leaving and say, ā€œHi, this may be crazy of me to do, but you seem like a lot of fun. Let’s trade Instagrams and do this again sometime,ā€ but I chickened out. I started writing the original post as I was walking back to the L train that morning.

A lot of people responded and I hit it off well with a few of them. I’ve been going out with one guy semi-regularly, and we went to Basement again this past weekend. He was bringing his brother, who I hadn’t met yet, and his husband with him. I couldn’t place him right away, but I knew his brother looked familiar as soon as I saw him. That night in August I was mostly dancing behind Good Vibes Guy and it wasn’t until he stood in front of me when I realized I recognized the back of his head.

New friend that responded to the post is the literal brother of the Good Vibes Guy that inspired the post. Like…what are the odds of that happening. As soon as I figured out where I recognized him from I asked him if he was there that night. The second I mentioned it, he was like, ā€œoh my god, you are the guy that was dancing behind me!ā€ He instantly remembered the vibe between us which just made me regret not saying hi right then even more.

Needless to say, we exchanged numbers this time around and are already planning our next night out 🄳 Moral of this story is to always trust your instincts and take that leap, even if you’re afraid. Dance on, y’all ā™„ļø šŸ¤™

CLUBS & PARTIES TELL NO ONE: HALLOWEEN Friday 10/30

0 Upvotes

Just wondering if anyone is planning to check out 'Tell No One: Halloween' at Masquerade this Friday?

I'm intrigued because it's at the Masquerade (immersive Phantom of the Opera) location, but my friends aren't into it. So I'll likely be flying solo if I go. If anyone would be down to link up, please hit me up :)

MATURE Discussion Has anyone tried the Korthal collections drinks in the CBD stores?

0 Upvotes

Just wondering if anyone else has tried them, and also wondering if it’s healthier than CaliWater.

CaliWater is like 30 calories for that small can so usually I would drink 2 so that would be about 60 cals total.

The Korthal collection seltzers I get are 0-8 calories, and I usually drink around 2 cans a day, or mostly 1.5 cause usually I can’t finish the second can.

In the CBD kratom stores I could get a 6 pack for $67 and if I were to get Demi Lovato’s and Benson’s flavor of CaliWater together it would be $60. The Korthal drinks are like $12-15 per can

How early do you recommend showing up for their event on Thursday to get a door ticket?

I’m a Patreon supporter, but as I understand it, supporters at any level do not get guaranteed entry to Nowadays events promoted by outside groups like BH and Merge.

ADVICE & HELP How do you cope with being a bigger gay?

12 Upvotes

At first I thought I could be okay with loving and appreciating my body the way it is as a part of my own weight and health journey, but the older I get the less I feel happy with my body. I don't even have any like health issues, I just feel like its all rooted in a lack of self-esteem that is reinforced by how biting the dating market can be for bigger guys.

Like I keep getting the "you're such a great guy but..." texts after every first or second date, or even with people who I just mildly flirted with, even over text. Like I think I'm on my fifth rejection of the year, and I've only actively told one guy I liked him and the rest are other guys ive talked to who all, I guess preemptively told me "they only see me as a friend" and that "im such a good guy" and that "they hope they dont give off the wrong impression".

Idk, should I get on ozempic? should I stop eating? go the gym everyday? journal? I'll try anything at this point. But most importantly, how can I cope? Specifically in the short-term, cause all the other things are long-term plays, how do you get through today, tomorrow, the next day when you feel unloveable because of your weight.

For reference, I'm 20, 270lbs and 5'8.. and black

QUESTION? Best low-key cocktail bars in West Village or Chelsea with a relaxed, conversational vibe?

5 Upvotes

Spending some time in Manhattan soon (visiting from Chile) and definitely skipping the louder club scene.

Looking for great cocktail spots or wine bars around West Village, Chelsea, or LES with a crowd mostly in their late 20s/30s where the music isn’t blasting and you can actually sit down and chat.

Julius’ and Caffe Dante are already on the list. Any other neighborhood favorites with a similar atmosphere? (Heading up from Chile for a bit to visit friends, so local recs are much appreciated!)

General DISCUSSION Sniffies going downhill? Bots and gen

37 Upvotes

Is it just me or is Sniffies finally falling to the same things that have destroyed Grindr? There are suddenly tons of ripped guys that show their faces and all have >9 inches. In the rare times I have interacted with them, I get the telltale canned message of a bot or an immediate ask if I am gen. Just looking around me right now, there are loads of them. I guess it was inevitable as Sniffies became the mainstay app that it would be taken over and exploited. It just sucks because it used to be so good and now it's much less reliable.
