How Do You Deal With Being A Single Gay Guy?
You know what’s great? A healthy relationship…with yourself. See what we did there?
Yes, pairing off can sometimes be appealing, but getting that foundation of self-love strong and solid is really what it’s all about.
That’s a lesson far easier said than done, though.
Below, guys sound off on how they feel about the nights alone, the meals for one, and that single life in general:

May 18, 06:53the worst part about being newly single is you have no idea what to do with yourself after being in a relationship for so long. “so how exactly did i use to spend my weekends before i had a boyfriend?”
i guess that’s why we tend to go into another relationship before too long because let’s face it, being on your own isn’t is attractive as it used to be after you’ve experienced something great with someone else.

As for being a single gay guy, lets just say it could be fun and we also have those days. And the idea of also been stuck with with all shades of guys in various/different state of undress most times………………. **sigh**

May 18, 10:14Hi everyone*waves*. Well am single because am insecure and can’t express my feelings. I feel am nuh good enough for any guy….#complicated much

May 18, 11:10I’m gay. Single. Contented but slowly getting fed up. I don’t know how guys (like the ones I read up there) can be single and happy about it for years. I mean, I’m single and not frustrated, but I know I want, scratch that, need a man by my side sometimes. I guess my being single can be attributed to the fact that many guys are only interested in what’s going on with my exterior, no one wants to know about my feelings. It’s sad.

May 18, 12:32Single because gay guys are the worst. Lord knows that’s how I feel. If you aren’t muscular or stupid rich, or particularly endowed in either area, you are almost always given no quarter online.

May 18, 12:40Single life use to be great and fun, I could be totally selfish and do or say whatever I want whenever I wanted. I didn’t have to wake up early to ping anyone or say goodnight to anyone, I wasn’t obliged to do anything and it felt so liberating.
Looking back, I can’t even believe I enjoyed those things. Now I live for the small talks every now and then, acting like a hoe in front of bae, those good nights and good mornings make my day complete (even if I had a bad day), the “feeling loved” part, because you know there’s someone out there who cares about you more than anything. You feel happiness, real happiness and you feel Safe. Whenever you’re around them they make your light up your world, you just can’t see your life any other way without them. …. Ok gotta stop now.
The point is, being single is great and all and you should enjoy it if it works for you.
But I’ve tasted both, and from my rant you can clearly see which I prefer. Relationship is not for everyone, but if you’re lucky enough to find the right person, it’s the most beautiful thing ever.

May 18, 13:01Lucky are the ones in a relationship, who them are their partners, know they are dating..

May 18, 15:08Hmmmm, Dahling is there a story here? ???
BeeJay
May 18, 13:42I don’t believe being single is a choice, I mean what’s the point in being gay if your just gonna be alone forever. Issue here is that most people have forgotten what GAY truly means: HAPPY. it’s supposed to be your license to joy yet in between the random hookups, cheap, meaningless sex and roleplaying all the joy gets sucked up. Folks need to chill out and simply be gay. Shikenan!

May 18, 17:17My relationships don’t ever last, so these days I just work, eat, and attend coven meetings.
Paul
May 20, 12:52Hahahahah @coven meetings.

I cnt say i have ever been in a relationship.
Trust me its boring being alone
U try online,it never works, referals- nothing, your gadar leaves you with just straight men and then you are back to your pillow,vaseline and phone.
E go better.
