Your situation happens all the time. Men who are mostly straight, often married, but know that they have an interest in man-on-man sex. I think that you are doing everything right by persuing personal ads. Yes, it's kinda spooky to have sex with a stranger, but the first time is the hardest. As for a first meeting with someone you met thru an ad, be sure that it is in a public place so that you can get to know him a bit before you go someplace private for sex.

Another possibility is a gay bar. Look them up on the internet and go to one. While most men are there to hook up for sex, you can socialize and get to know some men.

What I wouldn't advise is doing nothing. Your interest in man-on-man sex isn't going to go away, no matter how deeply you try to bury it, and it could drive you to risky things. One of the most notorious recent cases was Senator Larry Craig who was arrested for soliciting sex in a restroom. Don't let this happen to you.

Send me a Private Message if you want to discuss this or anything else.

Please, be VERY careful. If you consider it as a possible relationship, not just a "hookup," and are honest about that you might approach potential meetings as just that, without the mutual expectation of immediate sex.

All the best!!! And, do let us know what you decide and how it goes.

I hear ya pal. Same boat here. Although I have had a feww guys want to get together from here and flickr. I haven't taken anyone up on it yet but am thinking about it.

Would you do it if you had the opportunity?
