    Last year on vacation I met a guy. We hung out but nothing happened.
    But anyway I just met someone. He is closer to my age. He has that 'look' about him. I'm not being shy this time. I talked to him twice today and now have an 'in' so I can approach him.

    I'm in a much more gay acceptance place. There are many gay couples here. That's the reason I came here.

    Thailand. It's quite gay friendly. I see many gays openly affectionate and nobody notices gay men holding hands

    I'm still confused about how this works. I was always clumsy when dealing with women but I managed to sleep with eleven of them. I don't want a woman in my life but actively seeking a man. I flirt and slightly turn the conversation to us being together but so far haven't been able to bed a man. I met this guy and will ask him if he wants to go out to dinner.

    I used to work with someone from Thailand, it sounds a lovely place and that it's so gay friendly is a plus. As for picking up guys, I'd love to give you pointers but I've only had success through hookup apps!

    My town at home is too small for me to use a hookup app. I also don't like the look of the guys. Maybe it will work by just meeting him but then I have to go through a long process of seeing if he's gay.
    On my way home there is a totally gay beach where there are gay men only hotels. Maybe...? It's called Jomien beach on the island of Pattaya if you ever get there. I've never been there.

    So I was just reading through all the things a gay guy might do if he's interested in me. The guy I hung around with that I was pretty sure he was gay did ALL of the things suggested: touching, constant text messages with a cutie emoji, frequent dates, eye contact, remember everything I said. We didn't connect. Am I just a total clod? We're still in contact but on different continents.
