I'm really newly out and have only dated one girl for a very short time. The problem is, my ex is the only other gay person I know. When we broke up, I decided I wanted to make new friends in the gay community and such but I'm having a hard time meeting people. It happens to be pride week so I have been trying to get to a lot of the events and stuff but I'm having no luck. I'm even on a few dating sites just to try and meet some people and that's not working either. I know some of my problem is being so shy (it took me 6 months to tell my ex I liked her for crying out loud!) But I don't know how to get past this. I really want some new people to talk to and would love to start dating again but I don't know how to go about it anymore. Any advice for me? I could use all the help I can get!
