Being bi and pulling a guy

    Hey, I'm bisexual but I've never been with a guy before I'd like to try it sometime though. To be honest I've never actually tried to approach a lad,I am quite shy in that sense but I also come across as a lot more straight rather than bi which doesn't really help much.

    I'm just wondering how other guys approach men and what would you find initially attractive, cheers!

    Where have you tried to meet men or have you at all?

    Well I've been to a few gay friendly night clubs but that's about it, I find it hard to approach random people so I don't really do it that often.

    I guess I come across as straight, and bi/gay lads might be cautious or hesitant to attempt an approach because of that, but then again if I actually went to a gay bar I'm sure they would assume that I'm not straight.

    Well... yeah?! :confused:
    I've never met a guy outside of a gay venue, I don't even look out for them elsewhere I just assume I wouldn't meet anyone outside of a gay venue. *shrugs*

    That can be true, but if you want to meet someone, it's important not to come across as unapproachable either. When I go out, I sometimes see good-looking guys that you'd definitely consider talking to but they just come across as standoffish in their body language. I've observed before where a cute guy is overlooked during the night in a place and you can see the disappointment on his face when it's all over and people are filing out to go home/get a kebab!
