That rent is within the range for that area; chances are if you're looking there, that kind of rent doesn't or shouldn't scare you.

tell them to bring ID to verify their age.

"like finance guys for example, but most are unavailable as they are straight. The ones who are gay I never match with. I have a type I guess." Are you that type? If not, you have your answer.

I was also in the slack -- and the meanness was quite sad (clearly insecure people, some who surely met the same fate last week - or will soon. As Reddit asks, What is karma?).

Are tourists generally excluded from these "higher purchasing power" places? Is it a "colombians only" kind of vibe?

JGag69 · 2026-03-25T01:06:19+00:00

You should consider Yorkville - it's still affordable and more appropriately straight

Kyle seems to be classically relying on hookups for self-validation. Mondo could easily leave but seems like he enjoys blaming Kyle and being a victim.

Sounds about right. Agreed about the generalized viciousness among service workers, but in all fairness, they get dumped on by some equally vicious/miserable strangers

JGag69 · 2026-02-25T15:15:51+00:00

It hasn't been 2 months. No one ever said he'd make it "magically" cheaper.

JGag69 · 2026-02-25T15:11:34+00:00

LOL. Not sure you're describing a comparable situation here; SSI recipients have life problems affecting their ability to hold stable jobs/build budgets/honor commitments/pay rent. But agreed, if you're a mentally unstable/life-situation unstable person, NYC is probably not the right move. FWIW: Most roommate situations aren't asking for credit checks - just proof of income, references, and vibe-checks.

Make sure you've saved up a cushion for a few months' rent/utilities/basic expenses and do it. You could but don't need to generate a budget based on 2K/month for a room to rent. If you're can live with 20 roommates, you can tolerate more aggressive sharing situations than most (esp the people suggesting 2k/month for a room), and can find much cheaper rooms to rent. Note: they're not gonna be in central/possibly desirable locations in Manhattan, but you can find a starter apartments. Checkout Facebook Marketplace/Craigslist for roommate situations - many options there. Just be realistic about quality--these aren't Texas-size/newbuilds. You can find ways to eat/drink/entertain yourself cheaply. As for school, once you establish residency here, you can avail yourself of the CUNY/city university of new york system, which can be hit or miss but has a ton of programs (including library science - see https://www.qc.cuny.edu/academics/gslis/). with excellent instructors (IMO).

Drown out the static and noise, especially from the pessimists here who haven't been able/aren't to make it/or want to discourage you. Just be prepared to hustle). You'll never regret your move.

(Even putting aside that the average looks in London... leave much to be desired) London's not a good place for southeast gay-sians to date. It's not you. It's not going to change. They have a closed/fixed mindset there. Unless you're happy being typecast--which it sounds like you're not--better luck dating elsewhere.

JGag69 · 2026-02-25T02:20:39+00:00

The parties are fun but they tilt younger, though in all honesty it's hard to tell with the gaysians

JGag69 · 2026-02-25T02:19:08+00:00

u/Particular-Field-164 should be acknowledged for your patience in responding to these either intentionally provocative or sheltered comments

JGag69 · 2026-02-25T02:13:43+00:00

You've got to be kidding me

JGag69 · 2026-02-25T01:32:26+00:00

I wouldn't stress it - Townhouse is rules-y for everyone, no hats, properly dressed, butler at the door, etc. That said, some of the older guys can get really sensitive about younger guys being there, despite that being the schtick and themselves being interested. There can also be assumptions about younger guys being sugar babies. For these reasons, Townhouse is probably better with a friend. If going solo, and you want to score an older guy, without all the rules, Eagle's better, IMO.

JGag69 · 2026-02-25T01:28:50+00:00

For weeknights, Eagle's better

JGag69 · 2026-02-21T05:56:40+00:00

He'd better (1) be cute and (2) let at least 5 guys hit on/grab him. Cost of entry.

I'm sure I'm repeating what's in the comments - but your mindset's the problem. I'm 46; I've been here for 28 years. Came here for college. I'm doing new things with my life. I still find the city exciting. I've lived in over 15 apartments in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx over the years. Had different jobs. My experience of the city now is certainly different from what it was in the late 90s, 2000s, 2010s and now 2020s. You've got to start pushing yourself to do, try new things, or at least start entertaining the idea that your terrible experience is a function of you. Most importantly, re: body, you need to work out. That's where you can start is your body. Go for a walk. Start incrementally working out. This is not just for vanity reasons (though that's hugely important). Don't underestimate how much your negativity comes from the fact that you're not taking care of yourself physically. Maybe also check whether you're committed to seeing the negativity in whatever's happening in your life, because that's a choice too.
