Hello

This is my first post so be gentle.

I am 32, i am not out with my sexuailty (i am actually bi) though i have done stubble ways to show that i am as you can see my hair colour.

i find meeting people hared because a mix of depression, soical anxienty, shyness, fear etc. trouble is that chatrooms are full of perverts who want to have a quicky and dating sites are full of rude people who dont even take the time to reply to you.

i kinda feel lost at this stage. it would be nice to find someone close to me in both locale and age range. but there we go.

i cant just "go out there" because of my shyness and i end up feeling more alone in crowds.

Hey Buddy
So the same thing that I go though. I have ptsd, I go though life in fear of large group of people. I act alittle younger then I'm but it's nothing I can help. But I feel ya buddy , it sucks to feel like your in a dark room with a small bit of light that you never can achieve

Do you find it harder to find someone that understands? there is nothing wrong with acting a little younger then you are, sometimes i feel Im acting like im in my 20's or something.

Maybe you can try to check those gay dating review sites like http://www.hivgays.com to learn those sites more before joining them.

I dont have much luck with dating sites, its a real killer to my already low confidence and self esteem when no one replies to you, or the people who send you messages only do because they want something that you dont want and only messaged you because of the "shotgun" method and dont read nor respect your profile.
