Need some more advice about finding dates etc..?

Ok so i posted this in singles and dating but someone recommended i post it here so that i could get better advice and stuff. Some people have poster stupid stuff like ';buy a dildo'; thats really not why i ask questions, i thinks its really horrible when people be silly or nasty about it.


Someone also suggested local gay youth groups. I dont want to do anything on the internet though as im only 15.


Anything more would be a great help, thanls.





This is what i wrote originally:





Ok so i haven't actually dated anyone in 3 years. I am 15 and male, Im pretty sure that i like other boys so its not as simple as dating someone from school.


My mum and sister are always asking if i have a girlfriend and always saying things like ';i see a lot of girls looking at you when were out'; , this really upsets me as i know that i dont really like girls in that way and would rather date a boy but they dont know that so once again its hindering my from dating someone as i have to hide it.





I really dont know what to do, im not desperate for a boyfriend or anything but i would like it.


Does anyone have some advice, anything would be appreciated, thanks.Need some more advice about finding dates etc..?
Buy a dildo? Not that much support can be had from a dildo and companionship is out of the question... they don't cuddle very well.





Don't worry about boyfriends just yet, and don't worry about figuring out ';what you are';, the fact that you're not kicking and screaming about the fact that you may be interested in boys means that you are mature enough to try some things.





First of all, find some friends in your local area. How? Easy. Sign up for a profile on Facebook or MySpace (set it to private to be safe) and use their search facilities, I'd recommend looking for people around your own age (and if you're not out of the closet and are looking for 'real' friends rather than cyber friends, I'd recommend people who don't ';look gay';). Alternatively, browse the internet for local LGBT youth clubs.





I did both of the above and quickly found a great circle of friends and even had a few dates out of it.





Good luck to you =)Need some more advice about finding dates etc..?
have you come out to your family yet? I'm supporting the find a local gay youth group to join idea or if your school has a GSA, join that. Don't rush into something, make it worthwhile. :)





Good luck.

Hello, Iamamonster - which you are certainly not, by the way! In my view this is a very courageous and poignant posting, indeed.





Remember that, at your age, there is always a degree of doubt as to your true orientation, OK? Avoid the internet like the plague, PLEASE! Whilst there are some genuine people in cyberspace, there also also some extremely dangerous and disturbed ones, too.





Do you really believe that your parents and sister do not realise the doubts you have? Please think about this one most carefully - then show your mother and father this posting - and be totally frank with them. They brought you into the world and they love you, remember? After all, if you feel you might be gay, do remember that this is only a sexual preference: nothing more, nothing less. You haven't suddenly grown four legs or two heads, have you? Of course not!





Please consider these points very carefully indeed, and show your parents your posting - and show them my reply, too. Agreed? Great!





As a father myself, I have tried to give you some reasonably good advice. OK, it might not be the kind of advice you really wanted, but please, once again, consider everything I have said. With age cometh wisdom - supposedly.





Good luck - and do please be very very careful of what you post on the internet. This modern-day invention has much to answer for.





Regards - I wish you well.
Just let them find you. It takes patience, but it usually pays off in the end!
