I went to a gay bar tonight and it was miserably uneventful.
Believe it or not I am normally a confident person (at least I appear to be) but going to a gay bar made me realize how hopeless I am at this. Even my straight girl friend managed to get with a straight guy!
I have this major problem in suddenly going into defence mode: if any guy looks at me I will instinctively give him a 'why the fuck are you looking at me?' look - I know it's very bad but it's my natural instinct of protecting myself. I'm not looking for one night stands or hook ups so a bar/club probably isn't the best place - plus none of the guys were my type. So firstly what advice would you give and what other places could I go to meet friends?
