After being openly gay most of my adult life, I've had a few (3) experiences with women in the last couple of years.
The first happened truly organically, unplanned, for the first time in 25/ almost 30 years. She's back in Brazil, someone I stay in touch with but unable to visit since Covid is still a disaster there.
And more recently, with a married woman from the opposite coast at a clothing-optional resort. Also with what may be my closest friend since Covid. Who herself is 90% lesbian (as if these things can be quantified).
As I got older, I stopped looking for "types" of gay men and aspired to see attractiveness across age, body type, ethnicity in guys. So this just expanded across gender and surprised me what I really was attracted to. With women of a certain age, not especially young. Who can handle my total honesty about how sexually active I've been in the past with men. And may still be.
I acknowledge how ignorant I am of a woman's body. And bring humility and humor in being guided past or through this.
Which app(s) out there seem to best apply to my situation if there are any? I tried to scroll through this section to find a prior similar thread, but no luck. And I'm trying to keep my tone respectful, not egotistical. Plus avoid mistakes some guys seemed to have made with prior threads.
The pandemic has changed our perspectives of sex and romance. I feel open to new possibilities. And wanting to avoid the cliched NSA gay hookups that feel empty. Maybe the polyamorous label is Pollyanna...but we shall see.
Any suggestions on apps, next steps, what I should be asking myself? I appreciate your insight...and just taking the time to read this verbose post.
