How would you compare the gay community in Manhattan vs Brooklyn? Thinking of moving to Brooklyn next year (I want to do it this year but I don’t want to take a risk moving in the current situation)

Not to offend anyone, I have never liked the HK gay culture. Too much focus on body image and extremely cliquey crowd. I prefer a calmer, more diverse neighborhood

Manhattan more white gays. BK more inclusive crowd.

It’s totally a matter of personal taste and just different I think. I just remember the first time in a Brooklyn gay bar a guy said I was so obviously from Manhattan and should go back from where I came. Lol

funny

There’s a much larger gay “scene” in Manhattan with Hell’s Kitchen and Chelsea. Plentyyyy of gays in BK though

There are gays everywhere in every neighborhood, there are more important criteria to base your decision on

Anyone have three kids and working in big law? I just found out I’m pregnant with no. 3 and it’s been a lot trying to juggle morning sickness, but based on my experience, I know this is only the tip of the iceberg of what’s to come. My husband and I are elated, but the anxiety of being a mom of 3 kids and working in big law is preventing me from truly enjoying this news. It would be good to know what it’s really like having 3 kids so that I can evaluate how long I really have left in big law.

She broke up with me last night saying she doesn’t have the emotional energy to dedicate to the relationship and is just walking away instead of putting in the work that a relationship requires. She doesn’t seem like she knows what she wants - after the talk, she said she has strong feelings for me and wjll

How do you make friends as an adult (besides from work)? M31, recently relocated to a new city and every new gay guy I meet just wants to bang. When I tell them I’m also looking for friends, I don’t hear anything back. This is irl, not on Grindr..

We were going to go on a hike and had a hotel booked for a night. Texted him 5 min before arrival and when i was there to pick him up. He hopped in the shower. I got annoyed that he did that because i communicated beforehand to be ready. He didnt like that and said that he thinks that i think my time is more important than his... he canceled the trip and we are not speaking because of this incident... Am i crazy or something?
