Trying to find the one

squashman

Hi everyone. Trying to look for that special somebody but I also want to make friends on the way. For some reason no one I contact want to chat wit me and if they do they don't stay for long. I also seem to find that I'm the only one really making an effort to create a conversation. I'm on a few dating apps and its all the same. I know I'm not the hottest of men out there but I have a huge heart and just want someone to see that for a change instead of someone wit meat if u get me.
Any advice on how to find a guy would be appreciated ?
I live out in the country and no where near a gay scene to mingle wit guys. I'm also very shy and don't know how to even approach a guy hence the use of apps such as grindr. Any advice on this also would be great.
Sorry for the long message.

Hi squashman. Do you drive? Unfortunately where you are based is a bit of a dead zone for LGBT groups so I think you're going to have to go a bit further afield if you want to find any kind of scene. I'd say Waterford is probably your best bet.

Hi ya I drive. I suppose no one knows of any lgbt groups around tipp Kilkenny area. Even Waterford area ?

There is no One imho. There are a succession of ones, some of whom gracefully morph into dear friends. Enjoy your journey: it's usually the real point rather than the destination. And get out of rural Ireland.

yer man!

Work on getting the hell out of rural Ireland for now, I'm in Galway and I'm finding that too small.
