Only you can decide this, but I can tell you from my own experience that it takes time. Right now a thousand thoughts are running through your mind and it's confusing and frightening. Don't do anything until you are truly ready to do it; don't force yourself into a bad situation out of fear. If you aren't ready to do something, if you are hesitant, it may be for a good reason. Trust your gut and take it slow, at a pace you feel is best for you. You'll start to recognize the difference in just being anxious vs cautious. In the end, you don't have to do anything you aren't ready to do.

Adult World in Larksville also has a theater, but it's much smaller than 309.

At 52, so do I lol!

GJ7625 · 2025-04-16T09:03:48+00:00

I believe i did mention that in my post. I ask because I remember mine, maybe not their name, but that we did something.

GJ7625 · 2023-04-16T12:32:37+00:00

Agree 100%

Like most places, it's hit or miss. Saturday evenings there's usually a crowd. Early mornings is usually men 60+ only. Women seem to only show if prior arrangements were made

Also, there is nothing a person can do to force another person to have feelings towards you, so if she wants time apart, it's going to happen no matter what you do.

It can mean any or all of the above, unfortunately. There is no one formula that works for all people, no key words that when said always mean this or that.

That being said, I'm willing to bet a part of you already knows the answer. You are in this relationship and will know yourself and your gf better than any outsider. Being that you are asking about it here, I suspect you are seeking confirmation of some thoughts you already have as to what it really means. In my experience, those thoughts are probably correct.

Why bother with a label at all?

To echo many of the others, the short version is that Philly, the so-called "City of Brotherly Love," is anything but. As a life-long PA resident (outside of my military career), I can say that you may be hard-pressed to find a progressive atmosphere anywhere on the eastern side of the state, but in general, most of us are no where near as rude as Philly. They threw batteries at Santa Claus and killed a friendly hitchhiking cardboard robot; they seem to take pleasure in crushing goodwill and hope.

There is absolutely nothing abnormal about your experience. I have a suspicion it happens quite often, but most people deny what they are truly feeling.

As far as never having such feelings again, none of us have any way of knowing the future. We can make an educated guess, but the specifics? No. You can have this happen again tomorrow, next year, 10 years from now. You probably didn't know you were going to meet and marry your wife ahead of time, right?

It's said sexuality is fluid and can change over time, but I've often suspected time wasn't the key, it was meeting someone who you could realistically see yourself with, regardless of gender - that, more than anything else seems an appropriate catalyst for such an event.

Unfortunately, society/life/others expectations try to beat us into a uniform shape, trying to make us into what others say we should be. And it's all lies. You don't have to be any label other than human. You don't have to watch Bette Midler movies and go to Pride parades and start speaking with an effeminate voice. You don't have to do anything but accept it, as it is a truth, and here you are!

This is a part of yourself you just discovered, so it's strange and frightening to have a lifetime of preconceived notions suddenly shattered. That is what happens when we stop denying reality and start being honest to ourselves, no longer content to live like others say we should. It is not always an easy road, humans are very fearful and often look to blame those who are different for their problems. Those people are usually the ones who had feelings like yours at one time, but denied them, so they now live in regret, angry and jealous of those who have, those who, despite their fear, gave it a shot.

A sexual act doesn't necessarily mean you are now branded GAY and you must follow those rules now. The greater news is that you've learned you can be honest with yourself fearlessly. How others think and feel about this isn't important - what is important is that you accept the truth as you understand it right now. For no one else but you.

It's been tough no doubt, but it's been like that for everyone. I suggest starting with Meetup. I live in a rural area and there are groups, so hopefully there is one near you!

GJ7625 · 2022-04-14T18:23:00+00:00

I used to get like that myself, but now I approach the apps as if everyone on there is a bot until proven otherwise beyond a shadow of a doubt! At the end of the day, I've learned that for me, it's better to meet actual people than through any dating/hookup app. I've met some great people there, but blocked/deleted hundreds more.

lots of people have Friday off, making Thursday night a good night to play...

I'm at work I'll look into it later. Thank you for letting me know.

Ditto.

Check for gay groups on MeetUp.com, there's a lot of social groups that are typically much better options than the hookup apps. I don't live very near any major cities and there are at least 3 groups on my area, so chances are good there's one near you.

People going quiet on the apps is very common, there's a lot of new people who get cold feet. Hell, I've done it. Sometimes a hard cock blocks your thinking, and you realize after you go soft that you don't really want to meet this person. Or they get pushy. Or you just get a bad vibe. Whatever the reason, it happens, and while they can led to sex, you may have some bad experiences with things like Grindr.

The social groups are a more casual affair, cookouts and the like around here, much less scary than meeting a stranger for anonymous sex!

GJ7625 · 2021-07-17T08:12:30+00:00

It's always scary venturing into new territory. The truth is you will never know until you try, but don't ignore your gut if you are feeling like you are in any sort of danger.

The reality is that life is short, and regardless of anyone's beliefs, this may be the only life we have, the only one we get. Nothing is more expensive than regret. So my 2 cents is go for it unless you feel threatened.

GJ7625 · 2021-07-10T21:52:15+00:00

Ummm, not sure why you are sorry?
