Well, when every guy is out there hitting the racks, dressing well and checking off all the typical boxes in life, you end up back at face. It matters. Employ a plastic surgeon.

You should try to make more friends and hang in there a little longer. If you want for your first time to be special, or at least decent, then you need to wait till you find someone who gets it.

Many of my friends are gay. Most of them, I imagine, would be considerate lovers.

Logic says there are as many "types" as there are people. If you can't find someone to be in love with, first time around, you can certainly find a friend who will treat you with respect.

Try some dating apps/websites specifically for gays - be aware they may be much more "aggressive" than you're used to but at least pretty much every one is gay! You'll at least get more practice at assessing profiles and maybe talking/texting other guys. Good luck!

Op, you should get out more try to meet people that you might be interested in. It doesn't sound like you have really tried to do this. Good luck to you.

Do share with us some wisdom for living single. I don't think you should give up. I think moving might change everything. It sounds like you have a rich social life, which is a good thing. Good luck!
