This is my first posting. It's almost a year now that I have come out to my wife, family and friends. I'm happy that I have finally done that. This site is one of the first sites I found when looking to communicate with others that understand what it feels like to be bi. Where I have enjoyed the various articles along with reading other postings. I find when attempting to contact others with no other agenda other then to meet, talk and simply share with someone that understands, I get very little response. When you go on and look at different profiles most begin with a nude photo. Believe me I have looked at plenty of nude males photo's :) Is there anyone that enjoys communicating first? I live in Henderson, NV. Am currently traveling the US and I have looked at many different cities on this site along the way and most are looking for a hook-up. If anyone has any tips on meeting other Bisexuals without that being top on the list, I would welcome it.
Thanks

Congrats on being open about your sexuality. It, our sexuality is only one aspect of who we are, but it is an important part of us. Did your family have difficulty accepting you being bisexual?
I've been openly bi since I was around 14. So my family and friends, lovers, etc. have always known.
I also see that sort of 'hook-up' mentality a lot. I think the chat rooms help with building up relationships here and on other sites. Also just making it perfectly clear that your priority is communication. Do you have a regular male partner?

That's also my advice to you....most definitely get into the chat room here. State clearly in your profile (sorry I didn't read it before posting this) that you are not interested in unsolicited PM's for hookups or cyber. The chat room here is awesome for getting to know others on the site, personally I have made some great friends in there. It's a way to freely discuss what is on your mind, and just in general have a good time with those who understand what you are going through. Good luck and hope to see you in chat :)

Thanks you guys for that suggestion. I will begin to do that more often (the chat room)
To answer biandu's question: I do not have a male relationship. I am still married and continue a physical relationship with my wife. She's straight. We are continuing to unfold all of this a day at a time. I did meet one guy from the site in NYC whom I continue to email, which has been lovely. He's married as well however not out. Nothing sexual has taken place, just communication.

Yes, the chat room is great here!
There's a lot of people who have strong opinions and only a few trolls. Don't let them chase you off. Most of us are nice.
If you want, you can look at my profile for further inspiration. I am here for similar reasons.
