The world is an exciting place when you first come out. It may be kind of scary, it's certainly liberating and your options seem endless. And when it comes to dating, your fresh approach and positive attitude welcomes a whole host of personality types. Here's a look at some of the guys you date when you first come out — you know, before you get heartbroken and jaded.
1. The Closet Case
You may be out, but it wasn't that long ago you were in denial, too. You can sympathize. And lend a helping hand.
2. The Gay Rights Advocate
There's something magnetic about someone so vocal and supportive of their community's rights.
3. The Sex God
You're new to the whole gay thing, and this guy knows exactly how to show you the ropes.
4. The Older Guy
Now that you're out, you're so ready to date a sophisticated older man. He has a lot to offer and you're ready to learn.
5. The Gay Friend
If you're newly out, you may not know a lot of other gay people. So your go-to gay friend can seem like the logical dating option.
6. The Guy Everyone Else Has Dated
Some guys just have a thing for fresh meat. And if you're new to the scene, you're on the menu!
7. The One You Think Is The One
Your first love. The one who says all the right things, makes you feel all the warm fuzzies.
8. The Bad Boy
It can feel so so good to be so so bad.
9. The Heartbreaker
Your first heartbreak is painful and awful. But without dating The Heartbreaker, you'd never learn to pick yourself back up, get back out there and find someone who deserves you.
