If you want my opinion (and you're reading my blog, so I assume you do), the hardest part about being a gay Mormon is dating.  First of all, let's talk about finding someone to date.  There are ways, I've heard of Tinder and Grindr, although I will never use them, and I know social groups exist to help gay people meet, but it can be hard to find someone, but even so, the dating pool is smaller than the straight dating pool.

Then let's say you actually do find someone, now you have to go through the checklist: Are you attracted to each other? Are you compatible? Do you have similar feelings about dating, marriage, and sex?  Are you both comfortable with people knowing you're in a relationship?  Can you communicate? Are there complications that will eventually get in the way of the relationship? There are a lot of very different opinions and very different individuals who are all swirled together in the LGBT community.

I don't want to sound depressing, because I believe in love.  I have this (possibly crazy) belief that two people can find each other, and can make it work, but it takes a ton of communication, and a huge amount of honesty and humility.

I haven't found it yet, but I keep having this hope wake up inside of me that someday I will.
