Dating apps have revolutionized how gay men hook up. Gone are the days of dark, smokey bars and online chat rooms making small talk with strangers. These days, all it takes is the swipe of a finger to locate your next bedroom conquest, zero feet away (and up!).

But despite the simplicity of modern hooking up, dating apps actually create confusion, particularly when it comes to labeling a relationship. Because what do you call the guy who you’ve been having sex with every weekend for the past month and a half? Is he still just a f@¢k buddy? FWB? BF?

According to a study released by the dating app Grab Him, 71 percent of gay men say they’ve found long-term love online. So how do you determine if the guy you’ve been casually boning is boyfriend material?
We’ve created this handy flowchart to help you figure it out…

It took you two years? LOL
Seriously Queerty is fun and it is great way to engage gay people in all
kind of discussion, from politics and gay rights to work out and make up.
But some of the articles as you rightfully noted, they are really for the
the Gay Bimbos of the world……… Has anyone ever used Gay Bimbo before?

Unfortunately for those of us with bf’s, it also presents a lot of temptation. My now ex after 6.5 years is with the guy he first started messing around with after meeting on Scruff as a fb while I was out of town. That lead to a continuing theing which lead to me getting dumped. Who am I kidding? Its not the apps, my ex is a scumbug cheater who will eventually do the same to his new “misteress.”
