Looking for LGBTQ friends!! ❤️

Hi! I’m a 23F who lovessssss EDM music and events. I’ve been going to them alone which I don’t mind , I love the vibes and just being able to dance the night away by myself but I do wish I had an inner circle of my people. Ive been trying to look for women or men around my age who are into EDM and also LGBTQ individuals but have not had any luck.. I don’t live in ATL but in the outskirts so maybe that’s the issue idk just want to find like-minded people.

Anyone know a good place I could go and meet people? The gay bars/clubs don’t tend to have much of a EDM scene I’ve noticed.

Thank you for all the love and comfort.

I recently lost my cat 3 months ago. It was very sudden and unexpected. I was at a Florida trip with my friend & as I got to my friend’s house I received a call from my parents. They told me that my cat had passed away and from what it seems it’s likely he had a heart attack. My dad said he was on his daily walk & chasing birds until he started walking sideways and eventually fell over. He tried to give him CPR and rescue breaths because he was having trouble breathing. I could not believe it, I instantly broke down and fell to my knees, crying so hard. I never thought I would come home to loosing my cat.

When I was leaving to the trip, I did have a weird feeling. I said my goodbyes to him and a kiss on his little head as usual. But the way he looked at me, it felt off? I’m not sure but as I closed the door I literally stood still trying to analyze the weird feeling I had , like something was going to happen. I shrugged it off so I wouldn’t worry as much since I’m already an over thinker lol.
But never in a million years would I have thought it was going to be my cat passing away. I was very heartbroken.

Scout was my best friend, companion and my comfort. He was my first cat so I learned a lot with him. I was always a dog person but I realized during my time with Scout, I became a cat person. Scout was different from all the other dogs I had growing up. I got him during a low period of my life, where I was very depressed. During the time I spent with him, he was a light in my darkest days because of his goofiness and mischievous behavior. He was very talkative and loved to constantly headbutt. He wasn’t much of a cuddle bug but he never failed to let me know he was there with his presence and comfort. Each time I was sad or upset , he would sleep right above my head or come lay on my chest.

Recently , I had a dream where he jumped on my bed and came straight to my chest to lay on it and I could’ve sworn I felt his fur. It was weird but beautiful. I can tell I’m grieving because when he passed away , that first week I could hear his meows and I would almost call his name but I remembered he wasn’t here anymore and it would break my heart every.single.time… The house feels so quiet without his presence. I feel so many emotions still and I cry a couple times a week. I hold our memories close to my heart. I miss him so damn much. I know it’ll take some time to heal that part but I wish I could see him again. He played an important part in my life. But I like to think he’s in a happy place full of birds and tuna his two favorite things.

See you on the other side, Scout 🤍🕊️

Feeling Sad About A Connection

I guess I need some advice on how to move on from what I felt for someone. So to put it simple I met this very beautiful woman and I let her know that the first time we saw eachother. We talked a little bit then cut it off short cause I was running late to an event. I ended up running into her again and she remembered me and my name 🥲 anyways we hit it off again and exchanged numbers. We started texting on a daily basis, getting to know eachother, this and that and I let her know that from the moment I saw her I thought she was very pretty and I would love to get to know her on a deeper level but I wasn’t sure if she was into women. She stated she was not romantically attracted to women and she was very sweet about the whole situation and we ended up agreeing on being good friends. We started hanging out every week and even went on a weekend trip together after knowing eachother for only like 3 weeks lmaooo which it’s very hard for me to feel that comfortable with someone and she even agreed it was hard for her too but we just trusted eachother a lot. We also slept together in the same bed multiple times and nothing ever happened so I felt comfortable within our connection.

ANYWAYS, so everything is good at the trip until I notice she starts acting very flirty and a bit touchy. I was like ok cool she probs sees me as a close friend or something idk didn’t think much of it the whole trip. I get back home , found out about something that happened at home and broke down infront of her and she was there comforting me the whole time. I slept in her bed that night cause I could not drive back home as I was not emotionally well but left the next morning to go home.

I end up feeling very overwhelmed with everything going on and also surprisingly questioning my attraction towards her as in I felt like I was starting to catch feelings. We had a very good connection and I felt very comfortable with her from the start, but I genuinely thought I would never catch feelings since we agreed upon being good friends only. Well I let her know and you know she says she doesn’t feel she can reciprocate what I feel for her and that she’s into men, she saw me as a close friend only. Which I let her know it’s okay and I understand I just needed space to grieve from personal issues and also space from the connection since it was starting to get a bit overwhelming in terms of feeling confused on her words but actions spoke differently.

Now this is where it gets interesting, after a month of no contact because I needed space , I text her again and let her know that I miss her and the friendship. That it’s not even about the feelings I had for her , I’m way past that it’s more of the close bond and the value it held to me. I let her know we don’t have to be as close anymore but I would love to be travel buddies or somewhere where we share common ground. She lets me know that she has to be honest with me and it’s time for her to open up, she says she started sensing attraction for me when we slept on the same bed but on a soft intimate way. Also said she always found women attractive but never acted on it due to her religious upbringing. She mentioned feeling a stronger alignment with men due to family and things. And idk the whole paragraph made me tear up because it’s the exact same way I felt when I was in the closet not knowing I had something for women too. I’m not saying that’s her case but it definitely had a sentiment of self acceptance being an issue in her part. It’s like the paragraph was centered on her feeling something but because of religion and what was taught to her , she finds it compromises her values and feels it’s wrong to do. Idk how to feel I’m just sad about everything, it just hit close to home cause I have religious trauma too and I felt everything she said 100% , and I definitely don’t wanna be the one to push her into something she’s not comfortable with yet. So I just wrote that I understand her but also can’t be in a friendship where I’m not fully accepted for my identity and valued for who I am rather than what society says. Truly wish her nothing but the best ❤️❤️

LGBTQ R/B or EDM Clubs in ATL??

So lately I’ve been getting into the clubbing scene (even tho I swore I would never😭) but honestly it hasn’t been too bad maybe because I’m actually going to clubs where I enjoy the music?? Anyways I know ATL is like the gay capital of the south but I have been having trouble finding friends or romantic interests especially femmes 😔

Like where are yall at haha, but I’ve been looking online can’t seem to find a chill r/b studio/lounge with DJs playing with a LGBTQ community same with EDM. I’m tired of being hit on by men at clubs.. like it’s actually starting to get a bit annoying🫩😭

Price Advice: $2000 2013 Kawasaki Ninja 300

Owner was selling it for 2,500$$ but made a deal on 2,000$$? It is a clean title, checked VIN number already. Needs a new clutch which I can do , they’re a mechanic so they’re working on fixing the throttle cable as well. It is at 32,000 miles though…

I had another deal with another owner, 2017 Yamaha R3 $3,000 at 7,000 miles. Only problem is it is far and I would have to rent a U-Haul to get it to my house or something and that’s already an extra 100-200 I think idk.

23F SoloRoo Advice?

Hey yall I am a 23F! Recently I’ve been getting into the EDM scene, to the point I want to go to a club that plays any type of EDM music every weekend lol. I’ve always been obsessed with electronic music but haven’t really had any friends or partners that are into it as much as I am. But lately have been going alone to clubs and just vibing to the music and meeting cool people. I’ve been wanting to go to Bonnaroo for a few years but haven’t had the courage to take that step forward.

I figure I should just live my life on my own terms and go solo since no one around me is really interested in it. I just don’t know what to expect. I’m not really a smoker or take any psychedelics because of my anxiety, I do drink occasionally but honestly I get high already from the music and the vibes. I just love electronic music so much!! Most of my favorite djs or artists will be there so I’m really pushing myself to go but I am kind of nervous to go alone. I know that once I’m there vibing I’ll get comfortable but I guess it’s safety I am concerned about? I plan to stay only for 1-2 days. Not the whole weekend!
