Shine & Dine @ Las Iguanas, Waterloo

30/8/2019

Hi guys!
This is a general introductory drinks and food gathering, a chance for us to get together and meet one another, relax, have a laugh and make some new friends and acquaintances along the way.

We'll have some twilight drinks and food by the river in Las Iguanas, Waterloo (next to the Southbank Centre). Las Iguanas restaurant is home to fresh & authentic Brazilian, Mexican & Latin American food & cocktails. London’s Southbank Centre is home to a slice of Latin American life, at Las Iguanas situated on Festival Terrace.

At 10:30 pm, I'll be continuing the Latin fiesta over at La Cubana Waterloo (www.cubana.co.uk/location/waterloo) a brisk 5-minute walk away, where I'll be playing keyboard with a 5-piece salsa band. Free entry, fab cocktails and live music until 3 AM!

To keep things light and simple, numbers are limited to 10 places so do register early to avoid disappointment!

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.
