Looking for a bit of advice on meeting guys in a more genuine way. Dating apps haven’t really been working for me, they tend to feel pretty hookup-focused and all about trading pics. Tbh it’s just not what I’m after.
I’m more on the masc side and usually connect best with similar vibes. I’d much rather take the time to get to know someone properly and see where things go, ideally leading to something more long-term if there’s a good connection.
I guess part of the challenge is that I don’t always feel like I fit into the typical gay scene, which makes it harder to know where to meet like-minded people. All my friends and family are straight so I have no experience here.
If anyone’s been in a similar position or has suggestions on how to meet guys who are after something real, I’d really appreciate the advice.

Trying this because the apps haven’t really been it for me. Feels like it’s mostly hookups, people asking for pics, or just not what I’m looking for.
I’m more on the masc side and usually get along best with guys who are similar. Not really into random hookups, I’d rather actually get to know someone and see where it goes, and hopefully it turns into something more long-term if we click.
Also if I’m being honest I don’t really feel like I fit into the typical gay scene, which probably makes it harder to meet people.
Not really sure how else to go about it so yeah, thought I’d try here. If you’re around my age and on the same page, feel free to message.
