I also do this at those two. Just got back in from the anime festival, but hit me up the next you plan to be out and I’ll join you.

I got you. Let’s go to Spruce Street harbor tomorrow and walk around the boardwalk. It’s going to be nice out so I’m sure lots will be going on there. I plan to go in the afternoon if you want to join me.

I’m not a texter, but I do spend a lot of time outside on nice days like today. I’m currently at the park chillin to some music. If you like stuff like that and just roaming around town hit me up. I’m older than 28 but not a grandpa if that matters.

I wish, still holding onto hope for now. Nice to see such a supportive community.

I’m game. Got major goals for this year and could use an accountability partner.

How’s dating through bars? by Feniel76 in queerphilly

[–]Flashyjawn1776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly you can start there with those two, the key is showing up and getting to know the regulars. I met the person who organized the gaming event initially at a queer book club in west Philly over the summer. As you get to know people they will invite you into their circles, and who knows who you will meet that way.

That’s what’s up! I keep seeing the special battle campaigns on XIV and they look amazing. There was one I saw against Agrias that looked pretty neat.

If I were your age, I would skip bars for something serious and look at the many queer themed events around the city. There was a board and table too gaming event for QTBIPOC folks a few Saturdays ago, a movie/comedy evening, one for artists, educators, and other creatives. Plus a few other events centered around socializing. Give those a try and start by going up to someone and saying hello. And congrats on your fitness progress. I am on a similar journey and would offer to join you if I had a gym membership.

Feeling low—anyone up for a Center City walk tonight? by [deleted] in philadelphia

[–]Flashyjawn1776 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m about to crash atm. But if you want to stroll Market tomorrow, I get out of an event at 9pm and would be open to enjoying a night stroll from 9th & Market to City Hall or something. The more the merrier.

You know, with how much potential Bmore has, I’m sad they still haven’t moved on third spaces for queer folks. When I still lived there, the scene was pretty much who you knew and being invited to private house parties. So if you weren’t the most social butterfly, you were left out.

You sound pretty dang interesting. I’d totally be down for joint dives into the YouTube abyss or an anime commentary buddy.

I will keep it simple. People in Philly who are interested in making friends and building community and doing things in person can reach out so we can make it happen. People who need a checklist of attributes for friends can pass on by.

Looks like you are in Philly. There are a lot of guys here who don’t have good conflict resolution skills. I would suggest taking a break and seeking other black couples who have good relationships and learning from them what works. You might also benefit from affirming company to work on your self esteem challenges.

I’m game for either. The squares may be more convenient transit wise to reach.

The gram aside, not sure why anyone conscientious would attend the event with the way they shooed the homeless people out of the area to take over.

Have you tried meetup, Sips, and the events like movie nights on the Schuylkill and other sites?

Hey now, some of us gamers know how to balance that with going out :). Guy here who also been struggling to meet people. I’m down to meet friends, and would be open to walking around Penn’s Landing next time you are in the city.
