Also, if any shy guys would like to meet me earlier, I work in the building next door and finish at 17:15/30 so can meet you for a quick coffee/drink beforehand. Just message me in advance! 🌸🙂

Hello Guys!
안녕하세요

This is a general food and drinks gathering, a chilled group for gay and bi men to meet each other in a relaxed non-judgemental environment.

Kimchee Restaurant was launched in 2011 to introduce adventurous Londoners to the exciting flavours of Korean cuisine at a reasonable price.

Korean food is largely undiscovered compared to its Thai and Japanese counterparts. Barbecued meats and fish, marinated tofu, spiced soups and fragrant stews feature heavily on any Korean dinner table. Kimchee, a spicy, crunchy, pickled cabbage, is Korea’s national dish and a popular accompaniment to any meal, alongside a big bowl of rice.

Kimchee serve a range of meats, fish and vegetables marinated with authentic Korean flavours, cooked in their open-plan kitchen with a traditional charcoal grill. Their wide range of delicious starters and sides complete the meal.

I will probably go for a drink and a dance after, either El Grande, Scala or Eagle (if it's on) or possibly even a singsong at nearby Central Station karaoke, feel free to join me :-)

DETAILS

To keep things light and simple, numbers are limited to 6 places so do register early to avoid disappointment! And if you're unable to make it this time, we will be trying out a couple more ideas and scheduling in some more meet-ups in the coming weeks so we can meet up on another occasion!

I'll bring a large sign so you can quickly find us on arrival and stickers will be provided on which to write your name. Being shy and introverted can mean you’re concentrating so hard on getting the interaction right, you often forget their name or forget to ask (I’m prone to that)!

I don’t charge fees for attending our meet-ups. All I ask is that a one-off discretionary donation is made for your first time. This is to help cover the cost of running the group. Meetup groups are not free to run and cost £180 over the course of a year. I've put a link below (Paypal) where you give a one-off donation of £10 (or any amount) to help out. The group will always remain free so there is no obligation but it would be greatly appreciated. The link works on both desktops and smartphones.

Shy Bis & Gay Guys

Shyness and social anxiety can hold guys back from forming meaningful platonic and romantic relationships. It can be tough enough ‘coming out’, but being introverted can make it even more of a challenge and sometimes you need a gentle push.

So, whether you consider yourself to be ‘gay’, ‘bi’, ‘bi-curious’, ‘pansexual’ or any other label; whether you are ‘in the closet’, ‘out’ or in the process of ‘coming out’; whether you are vulnerable or feel at risk, this group brings us together. We embrace those who have experienced depression, anxiety, loneliness or isolation, especially if you may be considered on the spectrums of ADHD, Autism & Asperger’s, Bipolar, OCD and/or Schizophrenia.

You may be a highly sensitive person who experiences intense highs and lows to an extreme degree. You may be an artistic Creative with a vivid inner world hidden and locked away. You may feel easily overwhelmed by large groups of people, unsettled by the turbulence of the LGBT dating scene or sidelined/neglected in a whirlwind of rapidly spinning social circles. Anxiety may have even prevented you from moving forwards in friendships and relationships with other people because you are afraid of either hurting or getting hurt. This Meetup group is designed for you!

Have you ever taken years to build up the confidence to go to an event only to be disappointed? Want to attend an LGBT event but held back by your shyness? Simply come as you are. There is no need to pretend anymore. This is a get together for people who do not want to be on their own, to feel comfortable and foster a nice, friendly circle of people. And if you would like to come but do not feel like talking much, then that is cool, too! Take it at your own pace.
