    I have been meeting many guys over the past few weeks on dates - lunches, dinners, coffees. As I reflected in my prior post, I am meeting them through date focused apps rather than sex focused apps; while at the same time finding others I have met through LGBT focused charity and athletic events.

    I take time to chat with them and form a bit of a perception of them before deciding to meet.

    Granted, I live in a city that has a large gay community. And I have come away from just a very few meetings disappointed that the person I met came across close minded or superficial.

    So, thus far I have met many people that I feel comfortable building relationships with even just as friends. They appear, honest, understanding, thoughtful and sure of themselves. Now, to be clear, while I am not expecting to find my next life partner at the moment, as I am trying to be very thoughtful about whom complements my own personality while still working through the dissolution of my last relationship, I am finding more good guys are out there than even I had expected.

    I do believe it’s about expanding the channels we use to seek out companionship (whether friends or a relationship), keeping an open mind, and knowing ourselves just the same,
