Hi, I'm in town for a couple days and wanted to know about good shopping areas or thrift areas to pick up apparel and knick knacks. Thanks for your help everyone 👋 I'll be staying by 7th and Florida Ave.

Hi guys, my chess.com name is normanqing ! Please add me or message me if interested

Hello, I’m in the DMV area I’m 19 does anyone here run or go cycling? I’m looking for friends to go running or cycling with sometime in the near future.

Hey! I am learning both Muai Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in NoVa! Anyone into martial arts and wanna roll with me? !

Hello! I'm wondering if there are any groups in DC or nearby catered to a more sober crowd? I've considered joining a sports league but been told there's a strong bar scene attached to many of them. Whether sports, trivia, or something else, open to almost any possibilities going into the new year - especially if I can try something new :)

Never been to Green Lantern. Are there plus size folks who roam around shirtless? Do they get to take advantage of the shirtless drink free hour? Or is it just limited to people with conventionally attractive physique?

Hey! My bf and I love to ski, but always feel like we’re the only gays everywhere we go out east. I moved here from San Francisco, and miss the weekend trips to Tahoe with friends. If you can relate, hit me up. We’re pretty social and would love to coordinate trips or even plan group trips if there’s interest?

Hiya everyone! So I’ve noticed a lot of people here are looking for a social group to hang out and chill with. Obvs people have recommended sports clubs, but really not my thing and don’t have time just want to skip to brunch. So I’m thinking of starting a rainbow brunch club where we can plan events and have space to get to know each other. Who is in?

Hey guys. I am trying to find a group to enjoy videos games, have evening dinner parties, and attend raves/concerts with - and at the same time develop deep, strong connections with. Any takers, or concepts of how to start making friends like this without joining group sports?

Anyone going to the underwear party at Green Lantern on the 6th of December? I kinda want to go as I’ve never been but not sure what to expect (other than guys in their undies of course) would like to have someone to go with lol.

Does anybody know of any decent therapy groups of and for gay men in DC/Nova? I’ve done years of individual therapy, and am in a good place now. But have been thinking that group therapy for the support and the camaraderie would be beneficial.

is the food good? is the drag good? is tipping encouraged?

Where do you go to practice lane swimming? New to the area (NoMa) and looking for a nearby pool to practice 3x/week all-year long. Public or private, ideally at a walking distance from NoMa or just one that fits well for advanced swimmers. Are there any gay groups for swimming? TIA!

Hey all!

(TLDR: starting a co-werking/study group of gays & queers for laid-back socializing & productivity partners)

I'm 25 and recently moved to DC to start a PhD program at AU. With the amount of time I have to spend on schoolwork and reading it's been tough trying to meet new friends (I have a small cohort and they're nice but it's literally me and four straight men). So I'm thinking about getting a group of gays together who might be in somewhat similar situations to 1. meet new friends and get to know the community better, 2. help actually be productive and get stuff done, and 3. explore the city a little.

If anyone is like me and hopelessly unproductive at home or would just like to make some new connections in a pretty laid-back setting let me know if you're interested! It's DC I know there are plenty of us who either have to study, fairly demanding remote jobs, or are very behind on books to read 😅😂

Don't have a solid structure worked out but it wouldn't be anything too formal. Probably just find a coffee shop, library, or someplace to meet once or twice (or more) a week for anyone who can make it.

Open to ideas for places to meet, ideas about the group in general, and would gladly take help from anyone who'd like to help me organize and knows the city a little better lmao. Feel free to reply to this thread or dm me

Edit: I made this form for anyone interested to fill out and start getting a good idea of what this would look like!

Basically the title. Looking to make new friends with shared common interests. I (36M) love to bike, run, watch sci-fi and dystopian movies, try out new restaurants and traveling.

Hi All!

I got a 100 year old armoire that I would like to have painted creatively. Does anyone know any artist that I could hire to take on this job? I’ve tried thumbtack and task rabbit with no luck. I live at Alexandria.

Happily married w two dogs and no kids. FL is boring. We’re ready for a proper city. Doable budget for 2BR rent 4-4.5k. SO is WFH. I’m an attorney, real estate broker, entrepreneur and will/can do any work that’s interesting.

Kind people w sincere opinions- what are your thoughts? If you were me, what would you tell you?

I did jumped 18000 feet one time in Baltimore and looking for more. Anyone planning to jump? Looking for a partner.

Anyone know of good places to meet guys in a low stress environment? I want to get back out in the dating scene but bars feel overwhelming and the gay sports leagues (Stonewall and Fray) were so cliquey I left after giving them a few tries.

Let me know if you’re interested!

Hey Gays! I work for a large tech company and want to quit and focus on winning in two years, I have some experience with get out the vote and fundraising. Are there any other gays who want to work together to DO something? Maybe starting a super pac and pour efforts into winning! Please DM me and let’s talk about how we come together to do something.

So I'm sure many of us are feeling sad and depressed after the election result. In 2025 I'd like to spend a lot less time doom scrolling and a lot more time building real, in person community. Anyone know of some good DC Area orgs to get involved within?

Where can I get tested without any questions asked? I don’t have a primary care physician and I just want to get tested.

hi DC boys - I was visiting DC a few years ago and met a guy in his 30s who ended up being an identical twin who lived with his (also gay) twin brother. I think one of them was a doctor and/or worked in medicine. we ended up hooking up but didn’t exchange any contact info, which I now regret. long shot, but wondering if anyone knows the guys and could pm to help reconnect

I’m looking for new golf buddies! Anyone interested in playing 9 or 18 holes?

My gay ancestors thought they ate empowering me to think I could install a dimmer. 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️🏳️‍🌈also, I might have burned the the main girlie with the nipple flippers
