apps have been a wasteland for me. i'm mostly into soft mascs / stems and somehow every match is the opposite of what i asked for (which is fine! just not what i'm looking for).

local lesbian bar is messy and kind of cliquey so i bounced after two tries. i live in a decent sized queer-friendly city and still feel like i'm hunting ghosts.

where did people actually meet someone. hobby groups? work? mutual friends? i need ideas that aren't "just put yourself out there"

    mutual friends. slow and annoying until it isn't. the dates start warmer because someone already vouchsafed that you're not a goblin.

    hiking meetup. not explicitly queer but the overlap was high. also you immediately know if someone can handle silence.

    work, unfortunately. do not recommend the stress. do recommend the proximity.
