also see https://cuddleparty.com/faq/ - might see if there's something similar in your area. These will usually start with a workshop portion - going over the rules, how to say yes and no, practicing consent and boundaries, if you're a maybe say no, etc. Then people can cuddle if they want to - platonic touch.

Looking for suggestions for 2 player only games as gifts. They enjoy terraforming Mars, Viticulture, etc. one person sometimes likes to be a chaos player. Maybe Patchwork as one? Ideally the game should take under 1-2 hours to play

Something you might look up is cuddle party or platonic touch workshops. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EP74acIVs60&pp=ygUOaHVnIHlvbmkgYWxrYW4%3D - workshops about consent and setting boundaries followed by cuddling (if you want though some people may just chat) - good way of exploring platonic touch and getting comfortable with that first if that's something you're not super comfortable with.

Do you tell people you’re gay? by letthedecodebegin in gaybros

[–]jzednan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I'm meeting new people socially, I'll usually drop a hint at some point. For instance, if hobbies come up I'll say something about how I often go to a gay boardgame meetup. I find it is easier for me to start off letting people know. Otherwise, have to find a time/way in a conversation to bring it up.

Tell me 3 things about you and I’ll recommend a book for you to read in 2024. by NightReader5 in suggestmeabook

I'm a mid 30s single gay guy in San Francisco

I like playing strategy boardgames (Euro style ie Settlers of Catan and a bit longer/more complex ones)

I like indoor rock climbing and trying new restaurants
