Why I Created This for Gay Men

I’m Lonay, a gay relationship coach, RTT® practitioner, and hypnotherapist. I work with gay men who are tired of chasing emotionally unavailable men, repeating the same patterns, and feeling like love is always just out of reach.

I created this free guide because so many of my clients come to me asking:

“Why do I attract emotionally unavailable men?”

“Why do I keep ignoring the red flags in gay dating?”

“Is there something wrong with me?”

The answer is NO, there’s nothing wrong with you.

But there are patterns, beliefs, and nervous system responses that can be understood and changed.

This guide is a gentle first step in that direction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1 – Why do I keep attracting emotionally unavailable men?

Often, we’re attracted to what feels familiar, not what’s healthy. If you grew up around inconsistency, emotional distance, or conditional love, men who are emotionally unavailable can feel strangely “normal.” In the guide, I break down why this happens and how it shows up specifically for gay men.

Q2 – What are some gay dating red flags I should look out for?

Some red flags in gay dating include: constant mixed signals, avoidance of emotional topics, only wanting to meet on their terms, disappearing after intimacy, or never making concrete plans. The guide walks you through specific red flags in gay relationships and early dating so you can spot them sooner.

Q3 – Do emotionally unavailable men change?

Some men do change, but only when they are genuinely willing to do their own inner work over time. The problem is that many gay men wait and hope for change while abandoning themselves. In the guide, I share a grounded perspective on this question and what you can focus on instead.
