dont worry u will find a nice guy ur v cute and there is no rush as ur still young , but u cud also try to see if there is a gay youth grp in ur area where u can mt guys ur age and talk and socialise xx
Maybe you don't/didn't want to go to the GSA club meetings because you just wanted to be gay. This sounds a bit weird, but i don't go to the GSA in mines, I feel like they try to force the gay society down the throats of the straight society. I wan't the straight society to accept us, not back away even further. thats just me tho, idk about you
Austen i have to say you are HOT!!! and that i was the same i did not want to online date but i tryed it and i ended up like a bi guy from my school so completely the opposite of what i was going for lol i when online looking got a boyfriend i "fell in love" with and ended up liking a bi guy from me school
Well....its kinda tough really. I am very insecure about being gay and I don't think I will ever tell my parents I am....but I would like to have a boyfriend at some point, but there are a lot of people in my life that I know won't believe me or accept it, but idk. I know this whole acting straight thing is gonna end soon...I don't know.....p.s.....you are very cute :p
I am gunna guess because this was posted a year ago that you have had a bf or currently have a bf. One would assume or at least I would assume that someone as cute and funny as yourself would not stay single very long but I could be wrong.
hey buddy yea church groups are a great way to meet friends, but honestly the best way to meet cool friends and boyfriends is thru friends! my friends have introduced me to almost all my boyfriends lol if you were older i would date u in a sek..
you should quicky try the gay sex it's amazing it's better than with a girl...I live in Norway it's a pretty gay-bi friendly country, but you can find what's you research in the US.
btw i'm agree with in the web it's full of fake people. you should never trust anyone in the chat forum etc...
You are freaking amazing. I've only watched 2 vids and I like you. You are sexy, funny, and just amazing. Not to mention you have good dance moves. :) Seriously, I like your dancing. I just wish I could be more like you.
Seen two of your videos and I already like you. You are freaking amazing, sexy, and funny. BTW I like your dancing, honestly. :) I wish I could be more like you. heh.
Nice overly exaggerated faces there, made me laugh quite a couple of times. I go to a GSA (although no all clubs are the same), and they are only females. Not only are they females, they are all STRAIGHT. Not that there's a problem with it. I mean I'm Gay (Les, whatever) and I was sort of hoping for a companion that I can somewhat relate to. Well, no luck there. Maybe next year in college.
Usually, unless you have some spontaneously grand idea, you'd be sitting on your ass. The whole time (GSA)
trying to find a gay relationship in high school just plain sucks dearie. for me it was either settle for people i didnt really like or go on the internet (neither of which worked AT ALL :P) i don't know if anythings changed since you put this up but if you act like this in real life im sure you'll find somebody near you who finds you absolutely adorable. i know i do :D good luck! <3
When did you realize how creative and fun you are? Have you ever taken a test for MENSA? I don't know if one can automatically be consider MENSA, or if one needs years of exposure to culture and education before acceptance. Your mind, your creative expression of your thoughts certainly puts you in the high intelligence bracket. Wish everyone could see or stumble on your videos like I did. You have a real gift. Cherish it. Thanks for sharing it with us. Mack

Austen, me again. You better barricade your doors if you don't have a boyfriend yet. The stampede will be uncontrollable. Talk about options before. Take your pick You are so creative and absolutely fun to watch. Your mind is also so quick. I'm really happy for you. You are and will enjoy life so much more than most people. Oh, nearly forgot, your eye movements are perfect for all you say and how you move. You have the total package. Lucky guy who meets you. Mack
im gay, but not out. i so want to be, but im just really worried about how my friends will react. i mean, i think they might already know, but... yeah. and i thought that once i got to college that i would come out, but im afraid that if i do my parents wont pay for it, and then what would i do? plus for now im going to a college that is just 20 mins from my parents house, so i still live at home, and i could get kicked out. i think my mom will be... accepting? but i think my dad might hate me
Thanks for recommending OwlCityMusic. Love their music. I did recognize FireFlies. I'm not sure where I had heard that melody from before, but I sure am glad I got to listen to it again. You are so cool dude. Great videos!
@TheOnlyAustinCusker :) Aww that's so sweet! Well then you just wait and... Well wait some more, or maybe you won't have to wait all that long, but you'll find someone like me, I'm a dime a dozen!
Senior at a small, conservative Christian Academy. I pretty much gave up on having any kind of relationship. Can't wait for college.
And I would be inclined to steer clear of forming a relationship online. It can be dangerous. Not to mention it comes across as a little tacky. I apologize.
I wouldn't worry too much, you'll be going off to college soon, yes? And you seem like a good guy--plus you're attractive, so...
@hughbuddy Wow.... Senior at a conservative Christian "Academy"... God damn, you've got it a hell of a lot rougher than I do. At least I can flirt with straight boys. Haha, :( god I'm such a creeper sometimes!
Yeah I already did the internet relationship. Haha, it was good and the guy is amazingly nice and very generous. I agreed it comes off as tacky, but I've never been one to really care what people think of stuff like that. At least I'm getting some?
@austenwack It's not that bad. It's like...taking a vow of celibacy for 4 years. Which is almost up, huzzah!
For a time, actually, it was recommended, by the principal, that I stay out of the boy's dorm and boy's locker room.
They give themselves too much credit.
Anyway, congratulations on your first [gay] relationship. Sounds like it worked out a whole lot better than mine. Albeit, the guy was straight...anyway
@hughbuddy What ever you do get the fuck out of christianity - most of it is just filled with hatred of gays. Just as they gave the world slavery and segregation. do as we did and burn the bible afteer we shit on it.
its all a learning process. Be sure to find guys of your age and maturity. And dont go too fast and get in too deep - that is a double meaning btw.
And don't ever ever ever let the assholes of the religious right cause you to lose your self respect. Remember that for your life time and things should work out ok.
Oh love the whore-mones comment.
And yeh - on line is certainly bad for younger people gay or str8. go to meet someone - take a friend - gay or str8. preferably a big guy.
Annother piece of info - get the f... out of small towns. College is usually the place where guys really come out , and make friends. I'm sure you can find info if you look around as to what colleges are really gay friendly and open. College will change your life and your opportunities.

OMG...I need to have a pencil and paper whenever I watch your vids...they're brimming with wisdom and insight!
So yeah, I'm 20 years old and I still haven't had a boyfriend, probably b/c I still live in my hometown and I'm only half-out to people. I'm moving away in a few months though. Freedom at last! I was actually thinking of going the online route. Seems desperate, but idk what else to do.
a little? harhar uh.. I know how you mean.. turning to the internet for a relationship is scary.. I always hold my doubts very strongly online and I always scared myself off cause of paranoia of false truth..
I can certainly indentify with your hopes and frustrations in this video. However, it just so happens that I am available—hahaha. I was merely joking. Believe me, once you find an area that has a prevalent gay community, you will have a boyfriend in no time. I only hope that he realizes what a treasurer he has in having you.
And yeahh.. i'll have to read through these comments cuz.. i'm pretty lost and there IS not LGBT or Gay-straight alliance in my school.. I'm one of Three Out people.. and i'm BARELY out. And the other two are just.. No.
I am SO GLAD someone recognized her... Agh! It's the lesser-known people who's fans are so much more passionate! :) Thank you for the wonderful comment. I first read, "youtubeean" as, "U-TOOB-BE-AN" like you intended but then I read it again as, "U-TOOB-BEAN" haha... I then laughed out loud (literally) when you tried to correct with, "...person..." :P That was adorable! Thanks for the comment!!!
"But I think that people like us should learn to love ourselves first before we decide to start dating."
Words of wisdom right there. I think that is one of the biggest advantages being a "hidden sexual minority" can give. We give ourselves time to figure out what we think we want and who we are as people and how we operate and time to observe others and mature before we can get into a relationship. Coming out requires A LOT of self-confidence and that ultimately allows us to be more successful.
"Coming out requires A LOT of self-confidence and that ultimately allows us to be more successful. "
I absolutely agree with you.I have not came out to my folks yet because I still need a home and since I don't know how they'll react,I won't tempt fate.
I know that we're all teenagers filled with hormones,but I think the best think to do is to hold off until you meet the right one.Internet is a bad way to get boyfriends cause there are lots of pedophiles out there so don't.
Yeah, I myself try to be a realist instead of an optimist and would also suggest that you don't tempt fate. If you don't know and you have something depending on it, then don't risk in. Use your head, don't be pessimistic or optimistic. "The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist thinks it will change. The realist adjusts the sails." :P I just read that quote somewhere, I thought it was fitting! Internet is only bad if you are stupid. IMO. :)
There are times when you need to be optimistic,especially when you're feeling down and lonely.Just like what they say,"If you believe you can do it,you CAN do it",the key word here is "do",you don't wait for good things to happen to you,you do good things and they will happen to you.You have do what you need to do in order to get what you want in life.
You're a good person and you deserve someone good.Online relationships,not worth it.Life will get better in college.Trust me.
Aww thanks ShyGuy! :) is that a videogame reference or are you really just a shy guy? :) My personality is something that I am actually mildly proud of so when you complimented me on it, it made me pretty happy to know that other people appreciate it too! :) Being "out" is clearly a big step for anyone just in general and specifically for getting into a relationship, but you could still get in one without being "out". :)
Glad I am not the only person that thinks people on the internet are fakes. I would love to have someone in my life but I also don't know where to really start.
Yeah! Okay, so not everyone on the internet are fakes... Clearly that can't be true and I've discovered some methods to making sure they aren't fakes. Foolproof methods.. Of course.
1. Get them on webcam
2. Get them to take a picture with their name or something on a piece of paper in real life (this can be risky because photoshop, but most people aren't that good.)
3. Get them to mention you in a video of some sort, either youtube or personal. :)
Hahaha... Actually-----I'm just going to leave it there and keep you guessing! :) Thank you for this comment. It was SO nice and SO wonderful! I dunno about kissable, I am not a big fan of my lips, but whatever, I can't change (well I could, but I'm not going to) what I was given, might as well try to get comfortable! :P Thanks again!
I will accept the funny compliment because... I wasn't really trying to be funny. I guess I wasn't really trying to be, "Crazy Cute" either, but---fuck! :) I refuse to accept that one! However, I really do appreciate the comment and I like the compliments (even though I might pretend like I don't... That's just so I don't swell my ego--too much! :P)
When I'm 18 I can go to gay clubs? Really? I thought I had to be 21! "...you have to be careful ...especially because of how cute you are." Psh I am not cute. :P But I will be careful!
"...and you can have as many accepting people around you but that doesn't substitute the relationships you can forge with people who are more like yourself and ultimately the person you create a Loving (hopefully) relationship with." Mmm... Very true. :)
well maybe its different in your state but here in michigan and around my area...the age for gay clubs is 18 and up. lots of fun....but go w/ a group of friends.
there aren't many gay people in my day to day environment. and you can have as many accepting people around you but that doesn't substitute the relationships you can forge with people who are more like yourself and ultimately the person you create a Loving (hopefully) relationship with.
LULZ i have a similar feeling about going online to talk to guys....i am pretty private online...and feel like i have a lot more inhibitions than face to face.
lol i forgot to say... this one time... i went out with this girl... i had no idea she liked me. & well we went to the movies & then when she got home she asked me over myspace if it was a date... i said sure... so then shes like... i LOVE you & if you ont LOVE me back i will cry... of course i said no but i felt SO bad. but yeah ive never been in a relationship with a guy before... well not a girl either being gay lol.
Haha, aww how sad D=! But that's still pretty funny... Yeah that actually kind of exactly happened to me except she just assumed it was a date and she was pretty obsessed with me. In fact she was the girl that I had told first that I was gay and we did it through e-mail and I though that was funny. :)
Ohh! :) I had no idea Owl City was just one person! Thank you for correcting me. I made that mistake with Pink Floyd too which... Was bad... Haha, so thanks!
Haha thanks! :) I try to pick music that I think my viewers will like (not to say I'm picking music I don't like, I'm just... yeah, I guess you'd call it stereotyping) but you guys always surprise me when I pick a song I don't think many people will like and then I get like 20 comments saying, "What was that song?!?!?"Haha it makes me quite happy.
While you can find guys without the groups, I have found social groups (In my case Pride Alliance in College and Gay Men's Chorus of Washington since I graduated college) Were a good way to expand my network of gay friends and the more gay guys you meet the more likely you are to find one with whom a relationship might work out. If you're dead set against it though, I do recommend online dating once you hit 18. I've never tried it personally but its worked out well for several of my friends.
I've heard this advice actually be repeated a couple of times which implies that it is very good advice (even though that fact was evident the first time I read it). Networking is important no matter what you're trying to do. I have indeed been expanding my "gay network" more recently and it has helped a lot. It just kind of started to happen though and I certainly don't regret it! :P
As far as finding someone to love, you might have to wait till you are out of highschool and reach the age of 18. Then you can broaden your social network with college or bigger cities such as San Francisco, New York & etc. Even getting a good job can help. Anyway for now you might have to watch dirty videos, use your fertile imagination and your hands to control your hormones. Best of luck!
Wow! Thank you very much for your advice. :) I like it because it's a little bit odd and twisted at the end and that kind of sings true for basically everything I do... So thank you very much for that. I think I will refuse to move to a bigger city though simply because it kind of scares me unless I am making a crap ton of money.
"...use your fertile imagination and your hands to control your hormones." I only get to use my hands!? Sad day!
Thanks very much for your reply. You certainly go out of your way to reply to those commenting on your videos. Very cool! Your best and safest option for a good social scene would be college if you decide to go. Keep doing what you do.
First, I really appreciate that you recognized that I comment back... Or something. I don't know, that just makes me really happy when I get recognition for something that I really want to do for other people! So I'm recognizing you for being good at recognizing people, that's quite the rare trait actually! :) Second, of course I'm going to college, I'll take heed of your advice and wait until then.
Thank you very much again for the wonderful comment!
sooo austen we are definitely in the same boat because i recently was dating someone but things went sour (who says that anymore..."things went sour" lol) and it ended and ever since then i've been looking but not having any luck what so ever. if we lived anywhere near each other i would definitely come see you...(awkward lol) but i dont so all i can tell you is....msg me, i can give more detail and everything haha
Haha, it's okay. I like awkward situations, they make me think back to them and then laugh at the most unpredictable times, causing a chain reaction of awkward situations because no one understands why I'm laughing and if I tell them why they'll think that I'm just being rude thinking about something completely different then what they were talking about so I kinda have to be awkward and say, "Oh... Nothing, just you kinda slurred a little, and I thought it was funny" or something. No worries!:)
lol you're great! i love awkward situations...whenever i'm in an awkward situation i always say "Awkward turtle" just to make things even more awkward for everyone lol
Lol! :) Yeah... I don't know, awkward situations are always made non-awkward for me by simply making them more awkward. It's like when you multiply 2 negative numbers! :)
You are largely correct about meeting people online. However, I have some married straight friends (3 couples) who met via a matchmaking service and they have been married quite a few years and couldn't be happier. I know there are gay matchmaking services but I can't testify how reliable they are. You probably can't use them until you're eighteen but you're closing in on that day. Good luck with the hormones. I'm sorry I can't help you there.
Ahh yes.... Matchmaking services. See---I'm torn because for a long time I was really considering just waiting until I went to college to do anything, but now I'm just kinda thinking that I'll let what happens happen... I don't really know anyone in town or anything, but--I think that that might change soon. :) I really don't know where this is going, but thank you very much for your comment... The internet doesn't have to be scary if you cover your bases! :) I've got my ways of hormone control!
I'm sort of in the same boat, except I've only came out to my best friend. I feel tht if I have a boyfriend then that will sort of be an easier way to tell people I'm gay.
Btw your like exactly like me, I love dancing and singing too even though I'm not really good at it.
Yeah that would indeed be an easier way. There would be questions unanswered though if you just showed up with a boyfriend or started making out. Like, "Hrm... Is he bi or just gay?" haha, but I suppose it'd be easy to answer those once you had a boyfriend because that'd be A LOT of support. :)
God I am effing HORRIBLE at singing... It's horrendous!
You bring up a good point... If you're desperate for a boyfriend you'll find the wrong guy almost guaranteed. Sometimes it's just better to practice a little bit of patience and diligence! I promise you won't be single forever though. Promise promise PROMISE!
Oh and if there's one thing I've learned from people commenting on this video, it's this: "Don't rule out online as an option... Just be cautious." :) Jus' sayin'.
That's true, I've met a few nice people here and there. =)
But most of them were just out for sex, or were twice (or even thrice) my age, or just completely creepy...
It probably depends on what kind of website you go to.
And I said I 'gave up', but that was more in the sense of putting effort into looking for/finding someone. If it happens, cool, if it doesn't, no prob, you know? =)
I just found your videos today and I'm impressed. You seem very honest with yourself (and with us), and that's, in my opinion, the most important quality a person can have. I believe that, only when you really know yourself, are you able to engage optimally with others, and when you know yourself -- and see your own flaws -- you treat others with kindness and compassion. (Trust me, even though I'm actually a bit younger than you, that comes from a lot of experience.)
On the subject of this video specifically, I can definitely relate to wanting to be in a relationship; all the reasons you mentioned struck a chord with me. I've never been in a relationship either, so I don't have any advice, but I'm sure the right person will come along.
The fact that you've had to wait may actually be a blessing in disguise though. A lot of studies have shown that those who have their first relationships later in life end up happier. (The logic goes like this: the emotional control center of our brain doesn't fully develop until our twenties, and it's hard to have strong relationships before then, and bad relationships before then imprint negatively on our brain, which makes it harder to have good relationships in the future).
I agree. Psychologically it makes sense and you can prove this with classical conditioning. If you get in a relationship at a young age and associate a girl or boy going out with friends without you with cheating on you, you won't be trustworthy later on down the road when that really is all they are doing. The classical conditioning was ingrained into your brain because you had a bad experience with an untrustworthy teenager when you yourself were young. So yeah, I agree! :) Damn you're smart!
I'm glade you can relate to what I am going through.... It's not easy and I realize that a lot of people our age are experiencing this. If we look back even 10 years ago though, the number of guys our age in relationships was extremely small in comparison to what that is which, in my opinion, shows that our road to acceptance and equality is being paved very quickly. So really 16 and 17 isn't all that 'old' to be single, or a virgin or---everything associated with our sexuality.
Okay, well I am thoroughly blown away by your intelligence. To be honest, not too many people devote enough time to their comments and then end up portraying themselves as idiots. No offense. I simply find more interesting comments such as this one to be worthy of a deeper responses. First; I try very hard to be honest with you guys, but I can't say everything that I'd like to because it often times tends to be inappropriate for the 13-17 year old age group that I'm trying to capture.
"and see your own flaws -- you treat others with kindness and compassion." No truer words were ever spoken. In my opinion, the most beautiful thing about a person is their flaws. The flaws unlock the flawless being they have the potential to be and although that might be a twisted way of looking at it, it works well for me. I want to foster relationships with other people based on the universal flaws we have in ourselves that we don't want to admit. This is why I point my own flaws out.
I agree that acceptance is coming quickly, it's never quickly enough of course, but we're definitely getting there. And thank you so much for the compliments. You seem very smart as well and it's fantastic to have an intelligent conversation with someone on Youtube.
Regarding flaws, you're definitely right. Another thing about flaws, and about being yourself in general, is that, in any serious, long-term relationship, the other person will always get to know the true you, so you might as well save time for everyone and be honest with them from the start. If you're a dealbreaker for them, so be it... at least that's how I see it.
Also, thanks so much for the quick response. It seems to me that a lot of video makers think they're above the viewers, but you seem very friendly and accessible.
Oh, and one more thing (god i just can't shut up today): About the internet, it's definitely true that people lie, but in general, i've found that they're actually the more honest and open. I think it's because the communication is less direct (i.e. you can't see or hear the other person), which makes them feel like there's less risk to exposing themselves. so, i'd say, be cautious online, but don't rule it out.
Jeeze! Look at us! We've filled up this entire page with long, awesome comments! I have definitely found that people are actually quite wonderful online. After this video was posted, and about a month later I just started discovering how down to earth and real a lot of people are. It's refreshing and gives me some prospect of hope for our future. I was so afraid that the internet would tear us apart when it was intended to bring us together... I'm glad some of us are proving that very wrong! :)
---maybe a little idolized! But that's just because I'm an attention whore. :P I tend to shut those idolizations down pretty quick though when I open my mouth and people realize I am nothing special to look up to and that they themselves have all the capability to have traits and qualities like me plus SO much more. :)
I don't even know what to say because I just completely agree with you. While I know these things I have already made mistakes. It's strange because interacting with humans so many facets that no matter how much I try to preemptively understand ALL of the facets, I am missing about 70% of them. It's astonishing how complex relationships are to me... Wonderful, but complex!
oh my god do i know, humans are tough. i've made a lot of mistakes (I'm not a very socially-adept person) and hopefully I've learned from them. I've got to go now, but I'll send you a message later... I'm curious to get your feedback on something.
my friend, im old enough to be your pops, but young enough to remember and relate. how i stumbled on your vids im uncertain, but i found an entertaining guy who is funny, down to earth and resembles someone i knew (me)back when things were less accepting. Enjoy the journey. You'll find someone when you least expect it and you'll marvel at that discovery. I've been w/my partner for 10 yrs. good times! give your town a chance, you'll be surprised at the amount of guys just like you. cheers friend!
Wow, You make good Vlogs, Maybe it is because you look just like the guy I had a crush on in high school but never told him how I felt. Anyway, you sound really cool, mature with energy and smart too. First you need to figure out what kind of person makes you happy and what type of people make you feel good about yourself. The "Gay Scene" can be very shallow, so use caution. Meeting people online can be OK, but take your time. Fakers will not spend much time trying to get to know you. Peace Out.
:) Thank you very much. Maybe I am that guy!? Lol, unlikely considering the fact that I'm still in high school. I try to not sounds cool which in the end makes the real people think I sound cool because I end up sounding and not like I'm trying to be cool. Sorry, I hope that made sense. I will use caution, and thanks for the words of wisdom, they will be taken with the utmost respect and studently (not a word, I know, but whatever!) manner. :)
I didn't get into a relationship until I was twenty. I met this guy through a dating service. I fell in love with him after a few months and asked him to be my boyfriend. We were together 12yrst. Then we broke up. Just stay true to yourself and give it time. It's sounds cliche but you will find your guys someday. Falling in love is awesome.
Wow! That's awesome. :) I mean--not that you broke up, but that it lasted for that long and that it could have come from a dating service. What dating service was it? :P
It was quite a long time ago. It's hard for me to even think this but you most likely weren't even born yet if so you were in diapers. I fell hard for him but things changed over time. Basically I asked him to go to couples therapy and he refused so I ended it. It hurt but I think I made the right choice in the long run. I have been single for 7yrs. It's not easy finding the right man especially at 41yrs.
ok so this is like my sixth comment?! anyways, good luck, i will keep in touch. i see alot of myself in you, weird... cuz i was in your shoes too. i was 14 when i was like, oh, im gay... and ever since then it was like, get a bf, get a bf, get a bf :) also, make alooooot of girlfriends :) they know how to hook their gay boys to other boys :) girls have a nack for finding gays for gays... besides, all my girlfriends love me to death and theyre a great way to converse fashion with :) take care!!!
older bfs tend to be better, because they are older, wiser, more experienced, and usually are stable in life with a job and money... not that i condone sugar daddies, but hell, who doesnt want a sugar daddy?! :) i get what you mean by stereotypes, and clubs. you dont want to join something, just so that you might get a bf that way, or stand out. im the same way. but hun, you wont get anywhere if you dont put yourself out there. and also, when you turn 21, more doors will open :)
i guess what im trying to say is, create a group of friends that you trust. hell, i have tons of gay friends. but i wouldnt fuck them. theyre there for support, for my dd (designated drivers haha), for clubbing with. relationships will not, will not, will not, come first. you have 'to mingle to get from being single' haha i totally just made that up lol... im sure youve heard this advice before, but its the truth. hopefully, you will find an older guy who takes you for who you are and loves you
believe me, i know what im talking about haha... been there done that... except for the drugs, and the gpa :) !!! you seem like a nice guy, sincere, and ready to take on the world. thats alright, nothing against that :) but reality is, this world is a bitch :) take advantage of your time at home. when you move to college things will change... i say, start creating a network. other gays whom you feel best with. create accountability with them, its safer that way
see, these damn comment boxes have the stupid word limit lol... anyways, as i was saying. you will get there. dont be hasty, as treebeard says from lord of the rings haha jk... maybe you do live in a small town, yes, but that shouldnt stop you from finding someone there. im sure theres a gay boy there :) going to college is a mind opener, but its also dangerous because if you dont have your wits about you, you will end up spending, doing drugs, late nights, poor homework, and low gpa :)
oh my. you do have a vivid imagination there buddy. and i hear ya about the whole internet thing, its so easy to be fake online. listen! when i started dating vince i was just like you. i didnt know shit. like zero information about anything. i knew what i wanted, i had the concept of what i wanted, so thats what i was aiming for. yes, the romance, the hugs, the cuddling, the movies, the kisses, the holding hands... all the good stuff... which, will come soon enough for you
Do what you like. Just know that you'll never find someone if you don't physically put yourself out there.
Second piece of advice: be patient. I know it sucks, but as an LGBT (especially in a town like yours) you're gonna have to wait a bit to find even someone datable (going out of state for college always helps).
If you wanna talk more (or hear my crazy tale of love for a woman) send me a message. =]
Yeah I want to go out of town for college, but I don't think I could handle it because I adore this town that I'm in even though there really isn't that much of a gay community. I think though, that as soon as I hit college a lot more things will open up because I went to a bigger school in our district today and I saw and talked to 3 guys that I am sure are gay in the period of 50 minutes, so--maybe I just have a jaded outlook on this town and haven't been out long enough to realize it! :) Thx!
So glad to see you're not afraid to be yourself (especially on YouTube).
First piece of advice: If you don't want to go to the LGBT club you really don't have to, but I would at least give it a chance. Hell..if I had one at my high school I would've been there every single meeting. That's okay though. I found a group at my university and met a whole lot of my good friends there.
oh yes, one last thing, if you do decide to try online dating, meet in a public place, and don't go home with that person till you meet with him a good bit. ;)
Both of your comments were wonderful and just made me SO (Underline that SO haha) happy because I refreshed my page and was like, "Come on!.... COMMENT!" and then there it was, it was perfect timing and I was super excited. Then I read it, and it was a wonderful comment filled with sage wisdom (haha) so--yeah I was thinking that I might do some gay events actually. I'm trying to open my mind. Good idea with the public place though, I'm too paranoid to do something like invite them over first day
well, it's good to have an open mind, and you could always try getting a good friend to go with you, like may be a girl friend? (she may feel out of place though:p) online dating might not make you as nervous when you meet. (well, if you're nervous to begin with) and I'm glad my comments helped a little. :D If you need to talk, you can always message me.
:) Okay I will. Haha I posted a comment on your profile because--it was just really awesome that you had something on there. It made me smile. I think I could think of at least one girl friend that would be willing to go, haha... Good idea though! I'll check it out. I feel like I know you in real life. Do I? Haha sorry if I don't, it's just a feeling.
well, I don't really have an experience on dating people over the internet, but I know a friend that is currently dating someone in Europe. So far every thing is going well with them, and they're meeting in December. You don't really have many options besides dating online since you don't want to go to any gay events, etc. You could always start by just getting to know the person really well, but I can imagine why you don't want to date people online. :)
I totally understand what you are talking about. It is extremely frusterating! The hormones are there and you see other people in relationships. It frusterates me too. When I was in high school I never went to the GSA because I thought it would be awkward and was not attracted to the people. I haven't checked out my colleges Gay center either. It fruserating, and it still frusterates me. Eventually you'll find someone cool! Good luck!
If you are out at school, I'd be surprised if other gay guys didn't make themselves known to you, even some of the closeted ones. The larger the school, the better your odds are of finding someone.
That's exactly my point! Haha, my school is tiny, but I don't want to change schools just for a relationship (although I've considered it!) haha. And it's senior year which is just--overrated, but is another reason why I couldn't bring myself to change schools. Haha... I also haven't told everyone at my school even though I'm pretty open about it. At this point I just assume. :) Thanks for the comment though! :P
Super cute. Thanks for sending me this vid. I actually just came out with a relationship video about 2 weeks ago. Have you seen it, you may get something out of it. If you need additional tips or simply want to talk. Just Facebook me ;-)
your become a hit austen :P BAM! hit. just like that.
slightly jelous....
i couldnt watch all of it because it stopped playing at 5:35... which is a great moment to stop at... haha
theres alot out there in foco, make a move... i know theres this one guy that works at claires in the mall the hugged me when i was the easter bunny all the time and hes so freakin cute... but he might be to much... :P
Lol, you totally just gave away my location to all the pedophiles! Jesus Christ Hoagie! :P Thanks for watching though! I feel ultra sexy now because of you. So you should definitely make some videos so that I too can watch them and make pre-sexual comments on them involving exactly where you live. Haha
Lol, don't make it so structured then, just do it when you're hanging out or something. It comes together if you're genuine about it.. I THINK. Haha, I'm certainly not a hit like you said, I'm just talking and for some CRAZY (yet awesomely awesome) reason, people are listening and talking back. It's awesome.
I think you're a bit too old to interest pedophiles. By definition, pedophilia is a sexual attraction to pre-pubescent children. Just guessing here, but I'd say you're well past puberty!
No cute boys at your school?? No cute boys in your town/city? Most people on line are actually not fake! You should trust yourself a little more--if you want to meet someone, meet in a mall or public setting! I mean gee! By the way, I don't know anyone who wants STD's!
Haha, well there are a few cute boys at my school but none of them are gay. OR SO THEY SAY! Lol, well, I kind of have to believe what they say because if I chased after someone on merely my gaydar alone, then I'd be fucked if they ended up being straight, and I'd be fucked if they just claimed they were straight and were really gay because they'd deny me either way. Unless they didn't deny me, but that's the most unlikely out of the three circumstances. D= Haha, ill try the interwebs tho!Thanks!
Great video...again. Very funny and thought provoking. It really made me think about some weird shit. I am 24 years old. I have traveled to many countries all around the world. I would think I am good looking, but if I am going to go that far I may as well be narcissistic and admit to what I actually think, I am pretty hot. Yet I have never been in a relationship. I have never felt the need for one. And I have definitely never felt the need to proactively search for one. Good luck though.
Really!? Haha, that's insane to me, but really cool at the same time. :) Technically you aren't narcissistic unless you are manipulating people into doing things for you because you are attractive, so as long as you aren't doing that you aren't narcissistic. However, I just have a hard time comprehending what you're saying, I mean--it's totally cool but--I just can't relate to it myself. I'm dying right now and have been for about a year, I can't imagine 7 more years of this! Haha.
I just watched your video again, and I think that I understand what you are getting at a little better now. As far as the "hormones" (wink wink) go, there really is only one cure for that. So your predicament is far more dire than I first assumed. And now for the worst advice you will ever get...relationships aren't actually a prerequisite to said cure.
I know it sucks to wait, but your chances of finding a guy will greatly increase once you get out of highschool! Once you go off to college, things will get ALOT better!
Yeah it sucks, but luckily I've got years and years of practice with patience. If I've waited this long, what's another year or two... or three. Haha! Eh? College is going to be scary in terms of academics for me so I hope you're right and I don't let myself get tied down to school too much. :D
Depending on what your going to do, college work will be stressfull and can eat up lots of your freetime. But even with the work, there are still plenty of chances to find a great guy. Who knows? He may end up as your dorm roomate, or a classmate. Trust me, it gets alot easier and more fun!
man i love ur video, and you will find Mr Right when ur not looking that how it happen to me. dont worry u are really cute so it want be long before someone ask u out... :D
Haha--"really cute"--I don't see it! Haha, whatever! Thanks a ton! I've been reading these comments and I absolutely love that people care enough to talk to me and share their wisdom with me. Thanks for the wisdom, it's taken directly to my heart. I'll try to avoid looking for a specific something and just try to keep my eyes open for everything! :)
Alright, I'll try the more formal setting. I'll check out the GSA, I mean--honestly, what can I lose except for my reputation with like 2 people who I don't like anyways! Heh. Thanks for the advice because going to the GSA was one of the things that I knew I should try, but just needed a push to do it. What's an LGBT campaign? I'm assuming G stands for gay but I couldn't piece together the rest, haha! :)
dont worry u will find a nice guy ur v cute and there is no rush as ur still young , but u cud also try to see if there is a gay youth grp in ur area where u can mt guys ur age and talk and socialise xx

Maybe you don't/didn't want to go to the GSA club meetings because you just wanted to be gay.

I wan't the straight society to accept us, not back away even further. thats just me tho, idk about you

Nice overly exaggerated faces there, made me laugh quite a couple of times. I go to a GSA (although no all clubs are the same), and they are only females. Not only are they females, they are all STRAIGHT. Not that there's a problem with it. I mean I'm Gay (Les, whatever) and I was sort of hoping for a companion that I can somewhat relate to. Well, no luck there. Maybe next year in college.
Usually, unless you have some spontaneously grand idea, you'd be sitting on your ass. The whole time (GSA)

When did you realize how creative and fun you are? Have you ever taken a test for MENSA? I don't know if one can automatically be consider MENSA, or if one needs years of exposure to culture and education before acceptance. Your mind, your creative expression of your thoughts certainly puts you in the high intelligence bracket. Wish everyone could see or stumble on your videos like I did. You have a real gift.

Senior at a small, conservative Christian Academy. I pretty much gave up on having any kind of relationship. Can't wait for college.
And I would be inclined to steer clear of forming a relationship online. It can be dangerous. Not to mention it comes across as a little tacky. I apologize.
I wouldn't worry too much, you'll be going off to college soon, yes? And you seem like a good guy--plus you're attractive, so...
Yep.

They give themselves too much credit.

its all a learning process. Be sure to find guys of your age and maturity. And dont go too fast and get in too deep - that is a double meaning btw.

"But I think that people like us should learn to love ourselves first before we decide to start dating."
Words of wisdom right there. I think that is one of the biggest advantages being a "hidden sexual minority" can give. We give ourselves time to figure out what we think we want and who we are as people and how we operate and time to observe others and mature before we can get into a relationship. Coming out requires A LOT of self-confidence and that ultimately allows us to be more successful.
austenwack 2 years ago
"Coming out requires A LOT of self-confidence and that ultimately allows us to be more successful. "
I absolutely agree with you.I have not came out to my folks yet because I still need a home and since I don't know how they'll react,I won't tempt fate.
I know that we're all teenagers filled with hormones,but I think the best think to do is to hold off until you meet the right one.Internet is a bad way to get boyfriends cause there are lots of pedophiles out there so don't.
lamike1982 2 years ago
Yeah, I myself try to be a realist instead of an optimist and would also suggest that you don't tempt fate. If you don't know and you have something depending on it, then don't risk in. Use your head, don't be pessimistic or optimistic. "The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist thinks it will change. The realist adjusts the sails." :P I just read that quote somewhere, I thought it was fitting! Internet is only bad if you are stupid. IMO. :)
austenwack 2 years ago
There are times when you need to be optimistic,especially when you're feeling down and lonely.Just like what they say,"If you believe you can do it,you CAN do it",the key word here is "do",you don't wait for good things to happen to you,you do good things and they will happen to you.You have do what you need to do in order to get what you want in life.
You're a good person and you deserve someone good.Online relationships,not worth it.Life will get better in college.Trust me.

Yeah! Okay, so not everyone on the internet are fakes... Clearly that can't be true and I've discovered some methods to making sure they aren't fakes. Foolproof methods.. Of course.
1. Get them on webcam
2. Get them to take a picture with their name or something on a piece of paper in real life (this can be risky because photoshop, but most people aren't that good.)
3. Get them to mention you in a video of some sort, either youtube or personal. :)
4. Have sex... Repeat the process from 4. :)

While you can find guys without the groups, I have found social groups (In my case Pride Alliance in College and Gay Men's Chorus of Washington since I graduated college) Were a good way to expand my network of gay friends and the more gay guys you meet the more likely you are to find one with whom a relationship might work out. If you're dead set against it though, I do recommend online dating once you hit 18. I've never tried it personally but its worked out well for several of my friends.

I've heard this advice actually be repeated a couple of times which implies that it is very good advice (even though that fact was evident the first time I read it). Networking is important no matter what you're trying to do. I have indeed been expanding my "gay network" more recently and it has helped a lot. It just kind of started to happen though and I certainly don't regret it! :P

As far as finding someone to love, you might have to wait till you are out of highschool and reach the age of 18. Then you can broaden your social network with college or bigger cities such as San Francisco, New York & etc. Even getting a good job can help. Anyway for now you might have to watch dirty videos, use your fertile imagination and your hands to control your hormones. Best of luck!
ekarole37 2 years ago
Wow! Thank you very much for your advice. :) I like it because it's a little bit odd and twisted at the end and that kind of sings true for basically everything I do... So thank you very much for that. I think I will refuse to move to a bigger city though simply because it kind of scares me unless I am making a crap ton of money.
"...use your fertile imagination and your hands to control your hormones." I only get to use my hands!? Sad day!
austenwack 2 years ago
Thanks very much for your reply. You certainly go out of your way to reply to those commenting on your videos. Very cool! Your best and safest option for a good social scene would be college if you decide to go. Keep doing what you do.
ekarole37 2 years ago
First, I really appreciate that you recognized that I comment back... Or something. I don't know, that just makes me really happy when I get recognition for something that I really want to do for other people! So I'm recognizing you for being good at recognizing people, that's quite the rare trait actually! :) Second, of course I'm going to college, I'll take heed of your advice and wait until then.
Thank you very much again for the wonderful comment!

sooo austen we are definitely in the same boat because i recently was dating someone but things went sour (who says that anymore..."things went sour" lol) and it ended and ever since then i've been looking but not having any luck what so ever. if we lived anywhere near each other i would definitely come see you...(awkward lol) but i dont so all i can tell you is....msg me, i can give more detail and everything haha
biggestserver09 2 years ago
Haha, it's okay. I like awkward situations, they make me think back to them and then laugh at the most unpredictable times, causing a chain reaction of awkward situations because no one understands why I'm laughing and if I tell them why they'll think that I'm just being rude thinking about something completely different then what they were talking about so I kinda have to be awkward and say, "Oh... Nothing, just you kinda slurred a little, and I thought it was funny" or something. No worries!:)
austenwack 2 years ago
lol you're great! i love awkward situations...whenever i'm in an awkward situation i always say "Awkward turtle" just to make things even more awkward for everyone lol
biggestserver09 2 years ago
Lol! :) Yeah... I don't know, awkward situations are always made non-awkward for me by simply making them more awkward. It's like when you multiply 2 negative numbers! :)

Lol! yes!!! haha that's exactly what i was thinking :) Now i think i'm going to make situations awkward just for the fun of it lol

You are largely correct about meeting people online. However, I have some married straight friends (3 couples) who met via a matchmaking service and they have been married quite a few years and couldn't be happier. I know there are gay matchmaking services but I can't testify how reliable they are. You probably can't use them until you're eighteen but you're closing in on that day. Good luck with the hormones. I'm sorry I can't help you there.
alaninnh 2 years ago
Ahh yes.... Matchmaking services. See---I'm torn because for a long time I was really considering just waiting until I went to college to do anything, but now I'm just kinda thinking that I'll let what happens happen... I don't really know anyone in town or anything, but--I think that that might change soon. :) I really don't know where this is going, but thank you very much for your comment... The internet doesn't have to be scary if you cover your bases! :) I've got my ways of hormone control!
austenwack 2 years ago
I'm sort of in the same boat, except I've only came out to my best friend. I feel tht if I have a boyfriend then that will sort of be an easier way to tell people I'm gay.
Btw your like exactly like me, I love dancing and singing too even though I'm not really good at it.
Ps. Ur pretty cute :) "akward smile" lol
Canukeepasecret11 2 years ago
Yeah that would indeed be an easier way. There would be questions unanswered though if you just showed up with a boyfriend or started making out. Like, "Hrm... Is he bi or just gay?" haha, but I suppose it'd be easy to answer those once you had a boyfriend because that'd be A LOT of support. :)
God I am effing HORRIBLE at singing... It's horrendous!
P.S: Haha <---Awkward laugh... Thanks! :)
austenwack 2 years ago
I have like the same thing. 17, forever single, haha :P
And you're very right about online stuff = not good, I experienced it myself... Except not with dungeons and electrodes and whatnot you mentioned xD
I used to be kinda obsessed with getting a boyfriend, it was a little sad, really. Now I just gave up. It was way too much trouble, in my opinion.
Goten1992 2 years ago
You bring up a good point... If you're desperate for a boyfriend you'll find the wrong guy almost guaranteed. Sometimes it's just better to practice a little bit of patience and diligence! I promise you won't be single forever though. Promise promise PROMISE!
austenwack 2 years ago
Oh and if there's one thing I've learned from people commenting on this video, it's this: "Don't rule out online as an option... Just be cautious." :) Jus' sayin'.
austenwack 2 years ago
That's true, I've met a few nice people here and there. =)
But most of them were just out for sex, or were twice (or even thrice) my age, or just completely creepy...
It probably depends on what kind of website you go to.
And I said I 'gave up', but that was more in the sense of putting effort into looking for/finding someone. If it happens, cool, if it doesn't, no prob, you know? =)
Goten1992 2 years ago
Hi Austen,
I just found your videos today and I'm impressed. You seem very honest with yourself (and with us), and that's, in my opinion, the most important quality a person can have. I believe that, only when you really know yourself, are you able to engage optimally with others, and when you know yourself -- and see your own flaws -- you treat others with kindness and compassion. (Trust me, even though I'm actually a bit younger than you, that comes from a lot of experience.)
YTGays 2 years ago
On the subject of this video specifically, I can definitely relate to wanting to be in a relationship; all the reasons you mentioned struck a chord with me. I've never been in a relationship either, so I don't have any advice, but I'm sure the right person will come along.
YTGays 2 years ago
The fact that you've had to wait may actually be a blessing in disguise though. A lot of studies have shown that those who have their first relationships later in life end up happier. (The logic goes like this: the emotional control center of our brain doesn't fully develop until our twenties, and it's hard to have strong relationships before then, and bad relationships before then imprint negatively on our brain, which makes it harder to have good relationships in the future).
YTGays 2 years ago
Anyways, keep up the great videos.
Ethan
YTGays 2 years ago
I agree. Psychologically it makes sense and you can prove this with classical conditioning. If you get in a relationship at a young age and associate a girl or boy going out with friends without you with cheating on you, you won't be trustworthy later on down the road when that really is all they are doing. The classical conditioning was ingrained into your brain because you had a bad experience with an untrustworthy teenager when you yourself were young. So yeah, I agree! :) Damn you're smart!
austenwack 2 years ago
I'm glade you can relate to what I am going through.... It's not easy and I realize that a lot of people our age are experiencing this. If we look back even 10 years ago though, the number of guys our age in relationships was extremely small in comparison to what that is which, in my opinion, shows that our road to acceptance and equality is being paved very quickly. So really 16 and 17 isn't all that 'old' to be single, or a virgin or---everything associated with our sexuality.
austenwack 2 years ago
Okay, well I am thoroughly blown away by your intelligence. To be honest, not too many people devote enough time to their comments and then end up portraying themselves as idiots. No offense. I simply find more interesting comments such as this one to be worthy of a deeper responses. First; I try very hard to be honest with you guys, but I can't say everything that I'd like to because it often times tends to be inappropriate for the 13-17 year old age group that I'm trying to capture.
austenwack 2 years ago
"and see your own flaws -- you treat others with kindness and compassion." No truer words were ever spoken. In my opinion, the most beautiful thing about a person is their flaws. The flaws unlock the flawless being they have the potential to be and although that might be a twisted way of looking at it, it works well for me. I want to foster relationships with other people based on the universal flaws we have in ourselves that we don't want to admit. This is why I point my own flaws out.
austenwack 2 years ago
I agree that acceptance is coming quickly, it's never quickly enough of course, but we're definitely getting there. And thank you so much for the compliments. You seem very smart as well and it's fantastic to have an intelligent conversation with someone on Youtube.
YTGays 2 years ago
Regarding flaws, you're definitely right. Another thing about flaws, and about being yourself in general, is that, in any serious, long-term relationship, the other person will always get to know the true you, so you might as well save time for everyone and be honest with them from the start. If you're a dealbreaker for them, so be it... at least that's how I see it.
YTGays 2 years ago
Also, thanks so much for the quick response. It seems to me that a lot of video makers think they're above the viewers, but you seem very friendly and accessible.
YTGays 2 years ago
Oh, and one more thing (god i just can't shut up today): About the internet, it's definitely true that people lie, but in general, i've found that they're actually the more honest and open. I think it's because the communication is less direct (i.e. you can't see or hear the other person), which makes them feel like there's less risk to exposing themselves. so, i'd say, be cautious online, but don't rule it out.
YTGays 2 years ago
Jeeze! Look at us! We've filled up this entire page with long, awesome comments! I have definitely found that people are actually quite wonderful online. After this video was posted, and about a month later I just started discovering how down to earth and real a lot of people are. It's refreshing and gives me some prospect of hope for our future. I was so afraid that the internet would tear us apart when it was intended to bring us together... I'm glad some of us are proving that very wrong! :)
austenwack 2 years ago
---maybe a little idolized! But that's just because I'm an attention whore. :P I tend to shut those idolizations down pretty quick though when I open my mouth and people realize I am nothing special to look up to and that they themselves have all the capability to have traits and qualities like me plus SO much more. :)
austenwack 2 years ago
I don't even know what to say because I just completely agree with you. While I know these things I have already made mistakes. It's strange because interacting with humans so many facets that no matter how much I try to preemptively understand ALL of the facets, I am missing about 70% of them. It's astonishing how complex relationships are to me... Wonderful, but complex!
austenwack 2 years ago
oh my god do i know, humans are tough. i've made a lot of mistakes (I'm not a very socially-adept person) and hopefully I've learned from them. I've got to go now, but I'll send you a message later... I'm curious to get your feedback on something.

Enjoy the journey. You'll find someone when you least expect it and you'll marvel at that discovery. I've been w/my partner for 10 yrs. good times! give your town a chance, you'll be surprised at the amount of guys just like you. cheers friend!
motox67us 2 years ago
Wow, You make good Vlogs, Maybe it is because you look just like the guy I had a crush on in high school but never told him how I felt. Anyway, you sound really cool, mature with energy and smart too. First you need to figure out what kind of person makes you happy and what type of people make you feel good about yourself. The "Gay Scene" can be very shallow, so use caution. Meeting people online can be OK, but take your time. Fakers will not spend much time trying to get to know you. Peace Out.
Tango471 2 years ago
:) Thank you very much. Maybe I am that guy!? Lol, unlikely considering the fact that I'm still in high school. I try to not sounds cool which in the end makes the real people think I sound cool because I end up sounding and not like I'm trying to be cool. Sorry, I hope that made sense. I will use caution, and thanks for the words of wisdom, they will be taken with the utmost respect and studently (not a word, I know, but whatever!) manner. :)

I didn't get into a relationship until I was twenty. I met this guy through a dating service. I fell in love with him after a few months and asked him to be my boyfriend. We were together 12yrst. Then we broke up. Just stay true to yourself and give it time. It's sounds cliche but you will find your guys someday. Falling in love is awesome.
Blueaveo3568 2 years ago
Wow! That's awesome. :) I mean--not that you broke up, but that it lasted for that long and that it could have come from a dating service. What dating service was it? :P
austenwack 2 years ago
It was quite a long time ago. It's hard for me to even think this but you most likely weren't even born yet if so you were in diapers. I fell hard for him but things changed over time. Basically I asked him to go to couples therapy and he refused so I ended it. It hurt but I think I made the right choice in the long run. I have been single for 7yrs. It's not easy finding the right man especially at 41yrs.
Blueaveo3568 2 years ago
ok so this is like my sixth comment?! anyways, good luck, i will keep in touch. i see alot of myself in you, weird... cuz i was in your shoes too. i was 14 when i was like, oh, im gay... and ever since then it was like, get a bf, get a bf, get a bf :) also, make alooooot of girlfriends :) they know how to hook their gay boys to other boys :) girls have a nack for finding gays for gays... besides, all my girlfriends love me to death and theyre a great way to converse fashion with :) take care!!!
robertbrown1988 2 years ago
older bfs tend to be better, because they are older, wiser, more experienced, and usually are stable in life with a job and money... not that i condone sugar daddies, but hell, who doesnt want a sugar daddy?! :) i get what you mean by stereotypes, and clubs. you dont want to join something, just so that you might get a bf that way, or stand out. im the same way. but hun, you wont get anywhere if you dont put yourself out there. and also, when you turn 21, more doors will open :)
robertbrown1988 2 years ago
i guess what im trying to say is, create a group of friends that you trust. hell, i have tons of gay friends. but i wouldnt fuck them. theyre there for support, for my dd (designated drivers haha), for clubbing with. relationships will not, will not, will not, come first. you have 'to mingle to get from being single' haha i totally just made that up lol... im sure youve heard this advice before, but its the truth. hopefully, you will find an older guy who takes you for who you are and loves you
robertbrown1988 2 years ago
believe me, i know what im talking about haha... been there done that... except for the drugs, and the gpa :) !!! you seem like a nice guy, sincere, and ready to take on the world. thats alright, nothing against that :) but reality is, this world is a bitch :) take advantage of your time at home. when you move to college things will change... i say, start creating a network. other gays whom you feel best with. create accountability with them, its safer that way
robertbrown1988 2 years ago
see, these damn comment boxes have the stupid word limit lol... anyways, as i was saying. you will get there. dont be hasty, as treebeard says from lord of the rings haha jk... maybe you do live in a small town, yes, but that shouldnt stop you from finding someone there. im sure theres a gay boy there :) going to college is a mind opener, but its also dangerous because if you dont have your wits about you, you will end up spending, doing drugs, late nights, poor homework, and low gpa :)
robertbrown1988 2 years ago
oh my. you do have a vivid imagination there buddy. and i hear ya about the whole internet thing, its so easy to be fake online. listen! when i started dating vince i was just like you. i didnt know shit. like zero information about anything. i knew what i wanted, i had the concept of what i wanted, so thats what i was aiming for. yes, the romance, the hugs, the cuddling, the movies, the kisses, the holding hands... all the good stuff... which, will come soon enough for you
robertbrown1988 2 years ago
Do what you like. Just know that you'll never find someone if you don't physically put yourself out there.
Second piece of advice: be patient. I know it sucks, but as an LGBT (especially in a town like yours) you're gonna have to wait a bit to find even someone datable (going out of state for college always helps).
If you wanna talk more (or hear my crazy tale of love for a woman) send me a message. =]

Yeah I want to go out of town for college, but I don't think I could handle it because I adore this town that I'm in even though there really isn't that much of a gay community. I think though, that as soon as I hit college a lot more things will open up because I went to a bigger school in our district today and I saw and talked to 3 guys that I am sure are gay in the period of 50 minutes, so--maybe I just have a jaded outlook on this town and haven't been out long enough to realize it! :) Thx!

So glad to see you're not afraid to be yourself (especially on YouTube).
First piece of advice: If you don't want to go to the LGBT club you really don't have to, but I would at least give it a chance. Hell..if I had one at my high school I would've been there every single meeting. That's okay though. I found a group at my university and met a whole lot of my good friends there.

oh yes, one last thing, if you do decide to try online dating, meet in a public place, and don't go home with that person till you meet with him a good bit. ;)

Both of your comments were wonderful and just made me SO (Underline that SO haha) happy because I refreshed my page and was like, "Come on!.... COMMENT!" and then there it was, it was perfect timing and I was super excited. Then I read it, and it was a wonderful comment filled with sage wisdom (haha) so--yeah I was thinking that I might do some gay events actually. I'm trying to open my mind. Good idea with the public place though, I'm too paranoid to do something like invite them over first day
austenwack 2 years ago
well, it's good to have an open mind, and you could always try getting a good friend to go with you, like may be a girl friend? (she may feel out of place though:p) online dating might not make you as nervous when you meet. (well, if you're nervous to begin with) and I'm glad my comments helped a little. :D If you need to talk, you can always message me.
DK383 2 years ago
:) Okay I will. Haha I posted a comment on your profile because--it was just really awesome that you had something on there. It made me smile. I think I could think of at least one girl friend that would be willing to go, haha... Good idea though! I'll check it out. I feel like I know you in real life. Do I? Haha sorry if I don't, it's just a feeling.
austenwack 2 years ago
well, I don't really have an experience on dating people over the internet, but I know a friend that is currently dating someone in Europe. So far every thing is going well with them, and they're meeting in December. You don't really have many options besides dating online since you don't want to go to any gay events, etc. You could always start by just getting to know the person really well, but I can imagine why you don't want to date people online. :)
DK383 2 years ago
I totally understand what you are talking about. It is extremely frusterating! The hormones are there and you see other people in relationships. It frusterates me too. When I was in high school I never went to the GSA because I thought it would be awkward and was not attracted to the people. I haven't checked out my colleges Gay center either. It fruserating, and it still frusterates me. Eventually you'll find someone cool! Good luck!

If you are out at school, I'd be surprised if other gay guys didn't make themselves known to you, even some of the closeted ones. The larger the school, the better your odds are of finding someone.

That's exactly my point! Haha, my school is tiny, but I don't want to change schools just for a relationship (although I've considered it!) haha. And it's senior year which is just--overrated, but is another reason why I couldn't bring myself to change schools. Haha... I also haven't told everyone at my school even though I'm pretty open about it. At this point I just assume. :) Thanks for the comment though! :P

Haha, well there are a few cute boys at my school but none of them are gay. OR SO THEY SAY! Lol, well, I kind of have to believe what they say because if I chased after someone on merely my gaydar alone, then I'd be fucked if they ended up being straight, and I'd be fucked if they just claimed they were straight and were really gay because they'd deny me either way. Unless they didn't deny me, but that's the most unlikely out of the three circumstances. D= Haha, ill try the interwebs tho!Thanks!

Great video...again. Very funny and thought provoking. It really made me think about some weird shit. I am 24 years old. I have traveled to many countries all around the world. I would think I am good looking, but if I am going to go that far I may as well be narcissistic and admit to what I actually think, I am pretty hot. Yet I have never been in a relationship. I have never felt the need for one. And I have definitely never felt the need to proactively search for one. Good luck though.
goatfcuk 2 years ago
Really!? Haha, that's insane to me, but really cool at the same time. :) Technically you aren't narcissistic unless you are manipulating people into doing things for you because you are attractive, so as long as you aren't doing that you aren't narcissistic. However, I just have a hard time comprehending what you're saying, I mean--it's totally cool but--I just can't relate to it myself. I'm dying right now and have been for about a year, I can't imagine 7 more years of this! Haha.
austenwack 2 years ago
I just watched your video again, and I think that I understand what you are getting at a little better now. As far as the "hormones" (wink wink) go, there really is only one cure for that. So your predicament is far more dire than I first assumed. And now for the worst advice you will ever get...relationships aren't actually a prerequisite to said cure.

Depending on what your going to do, college work will be stressfull and can eat up lots of your freetime. But even with the work, there are still plenty of chances to find a great guy. Who knows? He may end up as your dorm roomate, or a classmate. Trust me, it gets alot easier and more fun!

I'm assuming G stands for gay but I couldn't piece together the rest, haha! :)
