well you could always put an ad on your sites, you never know... heck you could make a whole niche site out of it too and best of all, wind up with a hottie or two.
Will someone PLEASE teach the Dawg Man how to pick up?

Dawgy, the best thing to do is be comfortable with who you are, make and keep good friends so that you always have a family of choice around you who love and care for you. Love and sex will follow, happiness finds happiness. Make yourself happy first. And, starting things off, you have us. We all love you. :)
Good one Don -- Most important points.
Hey Dawgy,
I think everyone here has been giving you some excellent pointers in the various related threads you've written lately about your quest for a man.
I can't stress enough that you've got to get out and be forward regardless of what type of a relationship you're looking for.
Dawgy, are you a drop-dead gorgeous guy who dresses flashy? Just wondering, because maybe a lot of guys are intimidated to go up to you. Too stand offish, too flashy, too gorgeous -- God he doesn't want to talk to me let alone jump into bed...
We're all thinking the same things.
Try something like this the next time you go out...
Go up to the guy and have a completely serious facial expression and an extended handshake and say,
"Hi! My name is Dawgy and I'm performing an exercise to eliminate my fear of approaching men whom I find attractive. Thanks for participating."
Then; with a sly smile on your face, go on your way...
It's an instant curiosity generator and it helps get you talking to guys.
Here's something else you can try...
"Hi, my name's Dawgy I'm here for a convention what are you here for?"
I've been there dude and it truly sucks. But I got out there and did something about it. Presently I'm in a real great partnership of 5 years with a guy who is 25 years older than me. So age isn't a barrier either.
cheers & hugs :)
No he isnt LMAOPIP (running and ducking from Dale) j/kQuote:

Actually, I just went to a workshop called "Cruising 101". Don't laugh. I honestly don't know how to flirt. If I have a purpose, like a convention or a club function, I can work a room like nobody's business, but to just go to a bar and meet guys? Forget it. I totally suck. So I took this workshop and the guy said something that made absolute sense to me. He said "nobody ever goes to a bar to be alone". I mean, think about it. If you go to a bar and you are sitting there waiting for someone to approach you, nobody does, look around and see how many other guys are doing the exact same thing. You will be amazed. So you think, would you talk to someone who approached you? Probably. So those other guys will more than likely talk to you as well. And if you offer your hand and say hello, they would have to go out of thier way to be rude to not accept it and say hello back. And we all hate to be rejected, right? But you know, you are not going to fall for every person you meet, and not everyone is going to fall for you. It's not a big deal. If you meet someone you don't fall for, do you think there's something really horribly wrong with them? No, they are just not your type. (not talking about the really scary people who walk around the bar pantless for no reason and stuff like that) So, if you are not somebody else's type, that does not mean there is anythink wrong with you, it just means that you are not their type. By talking to them you will learn if you are compatible, and if nothing else you may make a friend.
One last thought on this subject. If you go to the bar and don't talk to anyone, then you will go home alone. If you go to the bar, and talk to people, you may go home alone or you may not go home alone, you may set the grounds for future meetings, or you may make friends. Think about it. You really have nothing to lose.
And if all else fails, just get a t-shirt that says "Who do you have to blow to get laid around here". At least it will be a conversation starter. (don't think I haven't thought about it myself)
Hey Qunique,
Is that the class taught at Faultline? I have been curious to check it out. So, did you meet anyone at the class?
There are two things working against me for meeting someone in a bar; being shy and being impatient. I have always hated spending the night in the bars, unless I was with friends. And, now that I'm no longer in my 20's or 30's, I really don't find spending time in bars a great option for meeting people. I would rather do something that I get something from, like volunteering, and if I happen to meet someone, great. That way, if I do go home alone (which is usually the case), my primary objective wasn't to not go home alone.
I am still hoping that someday I get over the sometimes paralyzing fear of rejection. As you said, and I paraphrase, you really have nothing to lose by talking to someone new.
Hmm Very good point!!!!! I think maybe I'll start going out more, even alone...Quote:

Speaking of workshops, there's some class at the gay & lesbian center here in LA called 'How to meet real guys in the most superficial city in the world' or something LOL - might have to look into that!
:honest:
Right on! The G&L center here is great. The LA boys of Leather meet at the Ed Gould Plaza and we've always loved the place. The staff is really friendly, the courtyard is a nice place to hang out. I just wish they would open that coffee shop up again.Quote:

So, Jake & Ounique, if you participate in functions at the Center (formerly "Community Center"), are there opportunities to meet a potential ex-husband there?
I had no idea the Center offered so much, the only time I've used the center was when I was 20, I took a b.f. to the clinic because he thought "HE" had V.D. I didn't, hmmmm how did that happen? (that was long before there was a term "safe sex" and rubbers were something used to keep your feet dry when it was raining...we can be so stupid when we're young.
