#59: Are Gay Men Capable of Commitment?

How come it seems SO difficult to find men that are interested in commitment or monogamy?


Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to connect with a man that wanted all the same things that you do?


Today, Danny welcomes you to have a conversation about commitment in the LGBTQ+ community, specifically with Gay & Bisexual men. It is often said that finding commitment in the Gay community is a rarity, but that is not necessarily the whole truth. There are several men who are looking for commitment, most just don't know what to do with it when they have it. The LGBTQ+ community has put an emphasis of sex for a long-time and therefore, many people fall into the trap of casual connections resulting in frustration, lack of fulfillment, and loneliness. For several of you, it is possible you have fallen into the, "if you can't beat them, join them" mentality.


Have you ever stopped and asked yourself, "what if I stick to my boundaries and not tolerate anything less than my desired outcome from a relationship?" If you have, this episode will provide you with some tangible steps you can take!


In the episode, you will learn:

  • The 3 lessons that will change your dating life
  • Understanding why commitment is important
  • The greatest lesson you can apply to your relationship
