I'm 19, and really really horny. I'm in college, but everyone I know is hetero. ahh! breeders! :-P

I'm just wondering if it's an okay and safe thing to do. any input is welcome.

thanks in advance.
 
WTF is a CL hookup?
Like discrete or hookup on the dl?
Either way, if you're brave enough to go through with it then why not? You need some way to get your sexual urges out other than your hand.
 
Meet in a public place. Tell someone where you are going. Look for other ways to meet people as well. Good luck to you.
 
CL=Craigslist. The Walmart of hookup sites. Not for the inexperienced or the faint of heart.

Before you do anything, you need to give some thought to what it is that you want and what you're looking for.

You're in a major city where there are plenty of universities and guys your age who are looking for someone to date. If not Detroit, then Ann Arbor is a very gay-friendly college town within driving distance. Go find yourself some gay friends and date like your straight friends do. They want to meet you as much as you want to meet them.
 
Oh Craigslist hookup.
Yeah I was looking into that for a bit, but looking back on it there is no way I would have been able to handle something that ridiculous, you may be considering it, but do you actually think you can go through with it?
 
Few things to note if you go through with it:

Lot of guys are fake, or will be real but will chicken out and flake. That might even be you.

Be aware that a guy may not look his pic. He might send one a few years old, photoshopped, or not even him. If so, don't hesitate to leave the scene.

With that above piece of advice, try to meet in a public place first so you can verify the guy is what he says he is. If you must go to his place then don't be afraid to leave. Who cares about offending, he's the ofensive one for lying.

Speaking of lying, tons of people lie about their vital statistics as well as their STD status, so be safe and aware.

Talk on the phone first (verifies a lot), get multiple pics, dont do anything you're uncomfortable with, just use common sense
 
I am by no means the 1 to ask, But meet in a public place like a Mall Or Restarunt
 
If you're just after a hookup squirt.org is a great site for that. I used to use it all the time for finding guys and it's nice because they've got a profile with a pic, tells age, height, weight, race, top/bottom, what the guy is and isnt into etc. etc. It's all about get in, get out sex.

I found my boyfriend on Craigslist but I dont know if I'd wanna try hooking up with someone from there. Too many horror stories about unwashed or demented people. I have also heard some good things though admittedly.

Whatever you choose, I always found it good to chat with the guy a bit on an IM program to make sure he was the real deal and not some psycho before I agreed to meet. Be selective, it's your right in the online world. Don't get too hung up on anyone, and don't feel obligated to do anything.

I personally never met the guys in a public place and it worked fine that way. At first I only had the guys back to my place. When I got more comfortable and more able to discern the good from the bad I was willing to go to theirs. I got a lot of really hot sex that way with really really hot guys.

Play safe though, I was stupid and had a lot of bareback sex. Lucky me, I didn't catch anything, not even crabs but looking back on it now at 24 I can't figure out what the hell I was thinking. On the same note, if you're into being tied up and stuff, don't do that until the second or third date, don't wanna be sold into white slavery :p.
 
I def had a period where I was doing a lot of CL hookups. above posters are generally right that you'll get a lot of fakes and people who are unsure what they are doing. Beware sending out your pics because some people just post ads to collect them. I'd try to get some communication from the person first to make sure they not just phishing. Realize that this may eliminate a lot of potentials so your call on whether its worth the risk. Also, I'd stick to email to begin with and not call the guys who post their numbers on there. The first (and last) guy I did call was actually being pranked by his friends (who had posted an ad on his behalf).

The above was really the closest thing I have to a horror story. I had a lot of guys over and went over to a lot of guys places and never once did I feel in danger. In retrospect, I'd say I was very lucky and probably would be more careful in the future.

A lot of it is just being careful and using common sense. Telling someone where you're going would be great, but you may not be comfortable with that. I'd say to try to get as much personal information about the person as possible like a myspace or facebook and see if it looks legit (employers, schools, etc). Meeting in a public place is also a good idea both to try to asses the guy in person as well as make sure he as GL here as he was on myspace.

I'd probably prefer to go over to their house to minimize any stalking risk or chance that they're scoping ur place out for valuables. Either way, try to keep an eye on them all the time. Be aware of your surroundings. I normally left my wallet in the car and brought my cell phone in with me. Don't accept drinks, or if you do, make sure you watch it from the moment its poured to make sure nothings put in.

Again just use common sense. If I went to a guy's dorm or apartment at UCF (our local state university) I was generally more easygoing. Safe sex is a given, and above all else, if you start to feel uncomfortable about anything, just stop. You met this complete stranger online for NSA sex, you owe him nothing. If something doesn't feel right, just leave right then. Good luck and have fun.
 
my advice is don't do it but if you do meet in a public place and tell a friend where you are going and if your uncomfortable excuse yourself and leave immediately.
 
Note that also guys may give you their number or personal site like myspace/ facebook, but that doesn't mean they'll keep talking to you. a couple guys just stopped talking to me out of the blue. sucked.
 
I decided not to do it. I figure I'll wait some more for a guy I love.

I've always been an idealist, so this seems right for me.


thanks again for your advice, everyone.

Probably a wise choice.

You should still get out there and date and enjoy your sexuality, though.
