How should my gay friend and I go about meeting our respective choices?

Asked by D353R7F0XX (25points) August 9th, 2009

So I’m straight and my friend is gay and we both want to pick up partners of our respective preferences. How can we use each other to do this?

Straight bars, find a drunk couple, play divide and conquer. A friend and I used to do it all the time.

Your gay friend could use the fact that he more easily approaches women in order for you to get to know these girls, and the other way around: You could go with him to gay bars and help him get to know other gay guys by asking them for him if they’d like to have a drink with him. (As you’re straight, they will accept this without hitting on you, and further more they’ll think that he’s a great friend because you go through all this trouble just to help him!)
:) Hope that helps

have a slumber party….the old fashioned method that begins with dry humping and eventually ends in insertion…either that or try the popcorn trick.

@augustlan My favorite sibling of all time was to a question about easy dinner recipes and the sibling was about roadkill! I thought htat was hysterical.

Go watch the episode of How I Met Your Mother in which Barney and his gay brother go to a bar to meet women & men (respectively). Take your tips from them. :-)

Do you just want to get laid, or are you looking for real relationships? If you just want to pick up partners, then do whatever you feel like doing. I don’t care. If you’re looking for a real relationship, then you have to start by getting rid of the idea that you have to manipulate them into anything.

No joke, gay bars. I am a gay guy, and there are more straight girls there then gay men. I take my striaght guy friends there all the time.

Plus the drinks are stronger.

Agreed with mowens. Way more straight girls than gay men. Gay bars are perfect. Quite often gay guys go with their straight girl best friend to gay bars…pick up a pair together.

lurve to @augustlan for the siblings!

@D353R7F0XX When I was in college (a few years after Woodstock~) I (straight, white male) had a classmate (lesbian, black Puerto Rican, female). We had several classes together, and had a long lunch break. We would spent many hours together girl-watching, making comments to each other about a particular girl’s ass-ets, or other features. This was years before there was anything close to a gay bar in our little town. But we did go out for a beer one night, and happened to meet a bi female couple. (insert imagination here).

James17555 and mowens pretty much hit the nail on the head! for the initial pick up you 2 both go in together to talk to the perspective, then one leaves and lets the other work their magic.

and gay bars are perfect for you 2! i totally respect [straight] men who are willing to go to gay bars with their gay friends. (cuz most guys are so freaked out by “the gays”) you will get extra points for being gay friendly right off the bat!

mowens's avatar

Are you both guys? Or is it a guy and a girl?

I dont really have any female friends, all guys. Straight and gay. (Im not your normal gay guy I guess) But I didnt even think that you might have been the opposite sex. I do know that straight guys do very well at gay bars, like alive said.
