Friendship is underrated

So a lot of us on here are bi , many are married including myself and don't want to change that.

But one thing I need and I believe others do is someone to chat to about your other life ...

Now maybe this is a friend with benefits or maybe just someone you can talk to send a message to knowing both your secrets.

There is a big stigma about mental health with young men (or older!) and even though I won't mention celebrity names there have been suicides that one of the main causes has been their secret life.

So ideally someone in South Wales / Monmouthshire for me but if anyone ever needs someone to talk to or meet up for a coffee / beer then send me a message !

And let's use this post for others to meet others for friendships.... and maybe with a little fun !

It's very important to have friends.

Many years ago I saw a guy in his car at a local cruising place, when I got to closer I recognized him as someone I had worked with, it was a bit of a surprise to see him there but we started talking and it became clear he was having problems, we chatted for over an hour, we shared lots of interest and exchanged numbers and now over twenty years later we're still friends and talk most weeks. Unfortunately he still suffers mentally but I'll always be at the end of the phone for him.

It can be a very lonely life even if you're married or have a partner, being gay, liking man sex or whatever was hard in my younger days, it's better now but there's still so many haters that enjoy pointing fingers and making people feel uncomfortable or worse.

I like this site because there are so many nice and considerate people who are going through similar things and it does feel like your not alone in the big bad world.

I feel lucky that I dont suffer from mental health issues myself but have friends and family who do so have some understanding of the problems they can face.

However I sometimes feel a little lonely and so seeking out other mature married guys as online friends who would like to message chat about our secret bi and cross dressing sides. Not looking for just salacious chat but others who share the same pleasures.

It would be nice to think that meeting would be possible but it would be very unlikely that I could get away at the same time as them on the odd few occassions where I get an hour or so free.

Suits me, but it is essential you have some buddies who you can chat with that know your situation and you can confide in. They will also require support from time to time.

Talking and opening up after a good session is the best stress and anxiety relief going.

Have a kiss and a cuddle then bingo, off we go again.

Have another chat, kiss, caress, fondle, lick and probe and you’re ready again, up it pops!

I think it's good to have a local male fwb, for normal chats as well as fun. I'm married and I've been looking for a similar married guy for a while but most men are into 15min fun sessions and not socialising in general.

What a great post! While I don't necessarily suffer mental health issues I am in that category of guys who are bi and live a secret life within the confines of a loving family. There are a 'few' gay puritans on here who would banish bisexuals as they see them as self-indulgent and hedonistic. I believe that married bisexuals can be at 'risk' of mental health due to fact that they are having to hide their sexual identity, which can increase an individuals anxiety and stress. So having someone in a similar position to share issues and to affirm one's sexual identity can quite literally be a life line. I too am happy to chat to guys who need that additional support....

In the age of social media and an interrupt driven society it's great to have a friend to chat to and enjoy a pint with. They're far and few between and perhaps our closest are those you choose once about each decade or phase in life.

Great idea - I suppose when you get married, and over time you lose those friendships that you use to have, those friends have moved on too. Be nice to have a pint and a chat with a pal who shares similar ideas.

A great post and never a truer word, I am suffering at the moment after losing my partner a few months ago but the pain and guilt remains with me always. My partner whom I loved dearly didn't know my bi side and I could manage to cope with it whilst she was alive but it haunts me now,someone to talk to and have a beer with and who also shares the secret would be great for me. The winter nights I'm dreading so long in the house alone with no one to talk to is a nightmare for me

I’m seeking a local pal ( non sexual ) to just enjoy a pint and easy going fun conversation even find a few things in common with interests maybe even a work out gym mate or hiking buddy or just that once a week drinking pal in a local pub or making up a pub quiz number.

I am divorced, bi, but not "out" even to family or close friends (except one, although even he doesn't know I'm on this site). That can be quite a lonely place to be. Importantly, I have other interests and activities with different people outside of what goes on on this site.

Meeting for sex is all very well, but having some friends who are in the same or similar situation would definitely be helpful.

I just can't become romantically attached to guys, and I think that's why I shy away from gay guys. Not because I feel threatened in any way, but because I don't want to hurt them, you know? If they become romantically attached to me, I just couldn't reciprocate.

That said, I'd love to meet a guy who I could be good friends with. I think that's what I've really missed out on, because - let's face it - bi guys tend to vanish as soon as they've shot their load. They have other things to attend to, like showering vigorously before their wives get home, so she can't smell their sin!
