Like many here in GLBT I'm a young, bi-curious guy wanting to experiment with men. Unlike some, I'm not looking to simply suck/get fucked and leave, I would prefer to talk to the guy online at first, before meeting and getting down to action 
What I would like to know from the more experienced guys here is......what is the best way to go about this? How do I get the ball rolling?
I'm not a big fan of Craiglist due to the impersonal nature of the site. Locally at least it seems that most guys are looking for some quick fun without any chat. Also, I'll likely be heading down south next week, does anyone have any recommendations as far as the gay/bi pub/club scene goes? I've been thinking this week might be my best chance yet of making something happen, but have never been to anything on the gay scene before.
Any help much appreciated
