Station 4
3911 Cedar Springs Rd

Sunday night is 18 & up and Hip-hop night and is usually good time to see young gay & bi guys out.

• Best way to let someone know your interested is to make eye contact. If you can't seem to make eye contact don't push the issue, there is nothing that turns people off more than desperation.
  
  
• If you're looking for love at a dance club or bar then you're going to be disappointed. Clubs are far too noisy to really get to know someone and most people are just out to have a good time.
  
  
• Bars and clubs are very sex charged and sometimes guys go to these places to find tricks and one night stands. If you are open to the idea of "hooking up" always make sure you carry condoms with you when you go out. Better to be safe than sorry later.

Gay.com

This is a big hook up site with a lot of different types of gay and bisexual men chatting. If you're looking to meet friends you may be disappointed. If you are looking for sex, online chats are probably a more efficient way of finding guys.

• Most chat rooms have profile pages so you can see and learn more about people in the room. Be as honest as possible about what you're looking for and what you look like. Post a photo of yourself or keep one handy because you will get more attention that way.
  
  
• If your interested in a particular sex act, or you want to let them know you only have safer sex, always talk about it online before you meet in person. Most guys will be up front with what they will and won't do. If they aren't interested in doing what you like move on—there are more fish in the sea.
  
  
• Before you actually meet in person, tell a close friend that you're meeting someone from a chat room. Let them know where you're meeting (public places are best) and how long it's going to take. If you have a mobile phone ask your friend to call you at a certain time so that they can know your safe.
  
  
• If when you meet they are not what you expected, feel free to let them know you are not interested (in a polite way of course). Don't waste their time or yours.
