NICK'S ADVENTURES IN DATING #1: Black Gays in Atlanta Be Like...

Yo Nick I really hope you find a boo the dating scene is tough and I'm dealing with the same issue, but I'm praying for you my bro. keep you head up in ATL.

 

Nick, didn't you just write a whole damn article about "Why do you even WANT a relationship". Now you got a dating "docu-series"? ( STRONG ASS SIDE EYE) Im just kidding man, do you. Wish you all the best. Going back to my quote in said article; Omega LevelFor instance, its SOOOOOOOO obvious Nick wants a relationship. LMAOOOOO...You know I gotta get ya Boi

 

i'm so effing glad I'm out of the dating pool. It's...a lot of work. I'm never going back....you hear that bae...we're dying together

 

I just found out today that he's a virgo, nick will be fine

 

But oh yeah, you did also say in said article; Nick DelmacyLOL I think the only thing that's obvious is that I like dating, not necessarily that I want a relationship.So fellas in ATL, know that if you date Nick, don't expect anything from the sh*t. He "likes" dating. So enjoy your dating him for however long so he can wipe that out and get onto the next dude he dating. Remember how he feels about relationships. So yeah, don't try that ''ish" with him. BTW bro, in bullet point number 2, why do you state Nick DelmacyThese are the types of everyday black men I’d ideally like to meet and dateand have a picture of those dude but, kinda dissing the "fem thot ghetto" looking dudes. Yes, i know its said in jest and the fem dudes wouldn't be my type either. But the attractive, beard having, fedora wearing men can easily be Nick Delmacya gaylebrity, a gay personal trainer, a gay web series actor, a gay fashion label whore, a gay socialite, gay Instagram famous, a popular gay bartender at gay bars or a well-known gay party/club promoter.And those dudes in the first pic you say are "everyday black men" definitely look like the gay socialite, instagram, fashion label dudes. Im just saying bro.... With Love

Nicca which one is it? They in ATL or Not, Im confused!!!! I know I know... Going to sit down now.....

 

This is clearly my next avatar. This young sir and/or mam is a perfect candidate for the title. You never disappoint @DreG

 

I'm a little confused by the inclusion of the Banana clip under 1: The Black Gay Dating Cycle is Typically Short & Stereotypical. The dark-skinned guy catches the eye of the light-skinned guy and has this wild daydream about their fun, passionate relationship ending with the other's untimely death, then comes back to his senses and goes on with his day (which involves showing his coworkers that he's wearing a cock cage, but that happens later in the episode). Unless the clip represents gay males typically entering relationships with the mindset that it will either be unreasonably happy or disturbingly tragic or turbulent. I hope most Atlanta relationships don't end with one half's early death.

 

That video was depressing...I hope all goes well for you, you seem to have a positive can do personality and spirit...have genuinely interesting ideas, point of view, and career so I'd say your chances are much higher than mine. I didn't know you were a Virgo too? No wonder I instantly took a liking to you. Good luck.

 

In context, I think the daydream is meant to show that the guy has an overactive imagination that sometimes triggers when seeing a cute guy. The rest of the episode shows that he tells tall tales about his relatively boring life and attempts to antagonize his family with salacious discussion of his sexuality when they're fairly accepting, as if he wants his life to be more eventful than it really is. I mean, he smiles once he gets off the bus, so he wasn't bothered or at least recognizes that the fantasy was all in his head and not representative of some tragic, expected reality.

 

Thank you for the context, that makes things clearer. I understand life doesn't play out like a fairy tale but without any other context to go on, the point of the video seemed rather dark, as if to suggest the mere thought of getting into a relationship is futile. My initial interpretation, that's all.

 

Dude, I here cracking up at the "Guys available to me here in Atlanta" pic. Reminds me of a LOT of the civilian gay dudes in Fayetteville when I was down there. LOL!!!!

 

Nick I feel you. Woke up feeling the same way today then I saw this. I'm 30 and came into the dating arena kinda late in "gay" life...like mid 2015(29y.o.). So maybe I'm just going through the motions and feel some unreasonable sense of urgency because I hit 30. I went through my month or two of naivety, but I'm well versed on gay life and myself now thanks to experience, friends, and this site. I too am trying not traditionally gay apps, but majority of the guys are basically looking for hookups because that's how most gay men use them...though I have found a couple people that I'm JUST friends with through the app. If I wanted to hookup I definitely know what apps to use now, but I don't want just casual sex. It's hard out here to find a average/regular masculine guy with good qualities [and hygiene] who are looking to be monogamous. I've had about the same amount of success by organic and digital means. I've been running into the guys that are masculine around me...but not their friends--yaaassss, have HIV(NonD--so they say), want an open relationship, won't be sexually compatible in the future (top/bttm), or just "going with the flow"...which is code for I just want a fvck buddy. I'm already open to any race and I am not strict on height and body type. Most recently I shifted from the 20-somethings to 35+ thinking maybe it'll be different. The results are the same. Makes me want to be like these guys out here are sh--, but I know that I exist so others like me gotta be out there somewhere. Our paths just haven't crossed yet. Until then I'm DOLO I guess.

 

In the end fellas, the whole dating thing is interesting to me because while yes we know its some crazy, overly flamboyant, want to be celebrities, weird, or whatever else dudes out there, there are also some that are a real good catch as well.

Im a person that tries to typically always look within when something I am experiencing in life is less than ideal. I know thats some Iyanla sh*t. LOL.

But, I just really do believe that what you "think about, you bring about". And that includes people.

So if you ever find yourself going on one terrible date after another or getting involved with BS guys all the time, you know of course its not them with the problem. The energy that radiates from us comes back to us all the time in every way. Financially, Spiritually, Emotionally, and Romantically.

 

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I can't wait for part 2!

 

I've been volunteering as tribute for years! When I'mma get my turn?

 

"If you really are a prince, I"ll marry you" ;-)

 

Go on honey! Take a chance!

 

Lmao! Somebody gets me

 

So you're looking for a black lumbersexual? Ain't none of those niggas ever been out in the woods.

 

U have my support.

 

I have an imagination like that sometimes... Bananas in all.

Anyways, so I see ATL has a wide variety of men to select from. This was an interesting thread.

The colorful picture of guys was funny.

 

I relate 100%. I've going through the same issues with dating. Never really meeting guys who I were attracted to. The options seem to be so limited at times, but these were the cards that I were dealt so just DEAL with it. That's what I tell myself. I'm online from time to time, but I think I'll challenge myself to get offline completely and get out. Only issue is that I'm not the biggest fan of where I live. This year I plan on traveling more to other cities though. Hopefully that helps not necessarily my dating life, but my overall social life. I heard in a podcast that you only made one post like this LOL, but maybe you'll still give us an update soon.

 

I love the experience of meeting people in person. I am not a fan of the apps because nothing good has come from them in my experience. I have taken advice from the articles written on Cypher Avenue a long time ago and I actually met some cool guys at a birthday kickback. Got a number which is new for me. I just think with meeting people at the house parties that I am able to just really see how men behave and get a more authentic representation of their personalities.

I do have two men that know a really good friend of mine through his boyfriend that are interested in me. They want to take me out for Valentine's Day but I am not really attracted to them so much like that. But I will keep putting myself out there and hopefully 2017 will be a better year for me as far as dating.
