And let's face it-as time goes on, the inability to meet a quality person can take its toll on our confidence. While bars can be a fun place to hang out with our friends, they are not always conducive to romantic connections.

One major barrier can be figuring out where to meet someone. There are tons of hurdles to overcome that can make it feel like the deck is stacked against us. Seriously, being a gay man and trying to find someone to date is a real chore. As you check yourself in the mirror before getting ready to hit the bars again, you think, “There has got to be a better way than the gay bars! I keep going week after week and no luck. But something deep inside is telling you that the way you have been going about finding a man isn’t working. You are good looking and smart, have a great set of friends, and take care of yourself: A “real catch,” you tell your buds. You are a gay man who has been single far too long.
