Can love be found in a gay bar

[januaryguy]

I met my bf online. If one can find love online, I think, one's chance for finding love in a bar/club is better. You get to meet the person in the flesh. Good luck to you

Sure it can

The first time I was introduced to my partner of ten years was in a gay bar. We didn't hook up then but did get to know eachother through mutual friends at other gatherings. The night we did actually get together was in a different bar New Years Eve - and that was Dec 31, 1996. We're still going strong so, yeah, its possible

I met my partner in a bar 22 years ago. We have been together since. So the answer is an unqualified yes. Be careful believing evrything you hear people say.

I met my guy online, too. So we're tied at 2-2.

Gay sports club here.

I have some long standing sexual relationships with guys I met online, but no bfs.

I don't see why you couldn't find love in a club; the problem is simply that you might dismiss the perfect guy in a club because you're not seeing the real him.

I'm sure it's worked for people, but not me. I met my boyfriend of 2 years through mutual friends at a pool party i was having. Bars are not my scene anyhow, since i seldom drink (i never did like the taste) and cigarette smoke is something i hate. Gay bars don't usually play the kind of music i like (Led Zep, Beatles, Doors, Stones and the like) and you are not meeting a real person. Having to shout over the music does'nt make for good conversation.
If you happen to find love in gay bar, i'm happy for you! But i would'nt go to one with the intent of finding love.

I've only heard rumors about finding love at a gay bar or online I don't have any hard personal facts so I can't say one way or another

i met the guy im dating while we were performing at a club. does that count?

 

[jackoroe]

Yes you can. I met the love of my life at a club. He was a stripper and just gone done doing his thing. We hooked up a couple of times and then he wanted it to be more permanent. And so, we've been together 8 years , now.

I think its possible but there are definitely better venues then clubs...I think times have changed a lot and there are better places to meet guys then clubs/bars. I do have an older friend that met their partner after hooking up with them at a bar, so it is possible.

It's definitely possible--just look at all the posts above from guys who've met their boyfriend/partner in a bar. However, I do think times have changed a lot. Even 10 years ago, bars were pretty much the only public place gay people could meet.

Since that time, two big things have happened: the internet (leading to new ways to meet guys) and increased gay visibility (more people who are out, more and different kinds of organizations/establishments for meeting guys). You can still meet guys in bars, but in my experience loud, dark places full of drunk men aren't necessarily the best ones for meeting somebody for the long term.
