Hi there
I'm in Sydney but I understand the fear of going to an event on your own! I've been hiding away for a few years but a friend has recently adopted me and forced me to leave the house. It's scary, but worth it  Best of luck. B

All I can say is I know what you are going through. When I first discovered the b/f lifestyle it was not here in Australia but over in the states. I got to know people, firstly through sites like this and then I met them in person.. It is amazing, I have met a lot of people on this site in person and I have to say they are the most amazing group, they have helped me to grow and to be able to discover myself completely. So all I can say is whilst yes it is daunting if the Aussie scene (and I will admit to not knowing much about the Aussie scene even though I am here) is anything like what I discovered, then go and enjoy yourself. Let us know how you get on maybe next time my g/f comes over from the states we can drop in and say hi.

Welcome to BFP!
Melbourne is a beautiful city, I would love to go back there again. When I lived in London and we had a very active forum and a lot of social events every week (that were originated on the forums) - we would arrange "Hand Holds" for new people wanting to come out and join us. A person (or people) who knew the crowd/the venue/the location would arrange to meet newbies at a specific time and location; and take them to the event, introducing them to a few people as they went along. This was really really helpful for getting over that first hurdle of walking through the door and up to a group of people - on your own.
