I have tried gayquation (sorry, not going to reveal who I am). I can attest the good part of the service: the staff working on my case is very nice and also he replies quickly.

But after a few months exploration, I have to admit, this business mode just won't help you find a boyfriend. Save your money and energy. Maybe go to gym, or go to bars. If you want a "your type", you need to go out and meet people by yourself.

There are reasons for this:
1. People on this service are generally more picky than people you could meet in real life. Think about this, they pay hundreds of dollars to match makers. What's the point for not getting their "type" but getting a regular man that could be found on app?

2. They do not have a big enough database. Who would really pay for a matchmaking service? The super picky ones or the super desperate ones. People who are attractive do not have problems findings someone they want, for relationship or for hookups. This is just a cruel human nature. They do not need services like this. Especially when the matchmakers' work is to exhaust all the profiles on the apps just to find guys for you.

Most Gay guys are highly expressive and they do not have an exclusive network for gay men. Only if you want to find the "dl in closest ones". Why don't you go to apps again then?

Also, think about this business mode. If everyone can easily find his "type", this service will no longer survive.

I'm sorry to point this out to all Potential buyers. This service does not work. You will be disappointed by all the guys they provide you and think they are all "too average" or even "below average". If you do not think this way, you shouldn't be the one needing a matchmaking service. Do not expect this service to have magic power. You have to meet guys by yourself. Go to gym, go to bar, go to gay sport event, go to anything that helps with boosting your confidence and helping you socialize with other gay men. This is 2023, life is short. Don't waste your time and money on nonsense.

To the business owner of gayquation. I am sorry I said a lot of bad comments on your service. It's not that you guys didn't try. It is just that matchmaking does not work for most people anymore, especially for gay people. I have the screenshots of your staffs telling me "gays are just super picky", "your area has little number of gays", "you are attractive but you also have high standards", etc. there are even close to racism comments (well, the gay community is with a lot of racism I understand).

But did you realize that's the reason why I signed up to begin with? It is because gay guys are picky. It is because I don't live at the center of a metropolitan city (but I'm also not too far from it, let's be honest, 20 mins drive is nothing). It is because I have some standards (but shouldn't I?) it is because all these that I signed up. Apparently, this service is not the solution.

P.s. I am not an angry desperate man who cannot get a man. I get men, but through socializing at gym, bar, and events. It was difficult to begin with, but it worked out well. Guys, again, just go out and meet people and be hopeful with yourself.

Wanting to meet someone to love and to share life with in that exciting and romantic way is something everyone deserves to experience. I figured out that I was gay when I first started college. I was scared that I would never be able to find the man that I was meant to be with. Yes, there are apps and dating sites, many that have a lot more sophistication than the sites that first came online when I came out in 1995. Back then, and more so now (that everyone has phones that have apps), the algorithm of the computer does not best help connect the hearts of two people. Generally, it is not leading to love. I tried the dating sites and found more heartbreak then the dream. Then I thought, there has to be something better, and I began to find all of these dating services that would help with the right match, but who did not have a focus on, and in some cases would not help, gay men, and cost thousands of dollars. I wished that there was something for me, specific to gay guys and affordable.
Four years ago, I discovered Gayquation, and it was exactly the type of guidance that I needed. Not only did they help me find an awesome guy, but, given that I worked in the public spotlight, I was out, but not put your picture on a dating site out. Thats where the service really helped. I found people to date that I could start a conversation with immediately, not about the superficial but to matters of the heart. The coaching services helped me out greatly as I had not had a long-term relationship before. I learned the key was pacing the enthusiasm that comes when first meeting a person so that you aim for success over the long haul and not cause burnout. My coach Nick helped me through the challenges of a long-distance relationship. He taught me about accountability in a relationship. He taught me about what all gay men should have the opportunity to learn when they were teenagers, to learn to express the love that comes naturally from within and be able to use that to build into a relationship. There is a saying that many gay men who grew up prior to the Obama administration, before gay marriage was accepted by the majority of America, are reaching back to our time as a teenager and trying to grasp at the time lost to where we could have learned how to love, date, and dream about being married to the most wonderful man, a man you had not yet met. The time of exploring who you are attracted to, dating and the fumbles often associate with a time earlier in life happens to many gay men at a later time than others. Like many who have seen it, I was so moved by the CGI animated short film, In a Heartbeat. (If you havent seen it take a look, https://youtu.be/2REkk9SCRn0) For many it shows what should be, I have viewed it as what I wish I could have figured out before I was in college.
This is where the Gayquation team helps. You cant go back in time to and relive those years when you could explore what being in a gay relationship is all about. Gayquation helps bridge that gap, saves time and emotion by being your teammate in finding your partner. They are also your big brother, there to help you navigate the world as you aspire to find the most valuable resource, love. Their services made a difference in my life, thanks to them I met the man of my dreams.
