Specifically, ones for relaxing, sitting out on green space, and people watching. And maybe near a lake, stream, or river. I don’t know if you’ve ever been to Deep Run Park in suburban Richmond, but somewhere like that.
Are there any groups or organizations for socializing with or meeting other LGBT adults? Im talking mainly about meeting friends and building support networks, not dating.
My partner has been talking about having kids, and he thinks he would make a good father. I’m not opposed to raising children, but I understand the sacrifices needed.
My hang ups stem from finances and the social difficulties of navigating a world where children of gay male parents may be bullied.
I’m the primary breadwinner, so if we want kids, I feel that he would need to double his income for us to afford adoption/surrogacy. He does not seem interested in putting in the work to make more money, though.
So to me, it feels like a hopeful fantasy rather than a commitment to being a father. If he can’t put in the work to make having a child possible, would he put in the work to being the best father he can be? Anyone else been in similar situations?
Yesterday, I saw two guys on horses galloping down Silver Hill Rd in rush hour. What was that about?
