(27 / M / NYC) outside of partying, what are some of the best ways to meet people in person? I’ve had my fun and am a bit more traditional when it comes to dating, so looking for something more serious.

I've never personally tried them in NYC but have you looked into clubs or meetup groups? Like apps/sites that organize volleyball, dodgeball, tennis etc.

I have a two really good friends who've known each other for years through a random dodgeball game where they met through something like this.

If I moved to a new city it's probably the first thing I'd do. They usually have mingling after where you can befriend folks and then try to meet more people through others' network

Totally agree on sports (& other, organised activities) + volunteering in community

I need to know

Not nyc but my friend joined a gay dodgeball (or volleyball?) league. I’m sure nyc has something like that too.

Look into Big Apple Recreation (BARS) they do gay bowling, kickball, and dodgeball and I’ve met a lot of people that way

The answer is always Sports Leagues.

Am herr ...what do you think

My GF and I are dating for 2.5 yrs , She met an office colleague (he has a GF) recently who she initiated a friendship with.

When I expressed how I felt she keeps saying there's nothing going on. I feel that when start to get emotionally close to some other guy than SO then it's not a good sign in relationship. Am I overthinking? contd.

Well I recently told a guy I have been seeing I have HSV-2. We have not yet been physical but it’s been heading that direction. Man I hate this part - waiting to see what his response will be after he researches and talks to his doctor. I’m on daily meds which help reduce transmission risk. You’d think that since HSV-2 affects 20% of Americans and likely a higher % of gay men, there would be less taboo but it’s hardly ever talked about. Anyone else in my shoes? Or had it disclosed to them?
