I met someone out the other day and had great chemistry. We've been texting and he just proposed a first date at Rise. 😔 Anyone else not enjoy having dates at gay bars?

honestly, just for the sake of not having to deal with straight people. i’m a big fan of gay bars as date locations. that said, Rise wouldn’t be my choice either. counter with someplace like Nowhere or Julius.

Agree. You can suggest a place

Counter propose and select a wine bar. There’s one on 52/10th or wine escape on 44/9 is also very cute.

Agree, start with a wine bar or something and then you can go to Rise or somewhere to make out. Mr Biggs is great. Rise in early evening is empty though, not loud

How do I politely decline that I’m not okay to make out in the first date or when the guy calls me over to his place after we meet/eat/drink? I want to take things slowly & know the person before getting physical. Not everyone might like this but that’s what I am & this whole thing appears off-putting.

Started talking to this guy through group a group telegram and one day he offered to pay for my lunch as I had helped him out with something. Since then he has been offering to pay for my dinners, salon visits, shopping etc and I have accepted 3-4 times. I am in a steady relationship and my boyfriend doesn’t know about this. The other guy just says he likes paying for my stuff and there’s no agenda. Is this a little weird?
