Hello All! M25 here. I am interested in the lifestyle, but have never tried. I am hoping to go to PB for the first time when the weather gets nice. However, I don't want to go all alone and wouldn't mind meeting some people there. But, I am straight... so I don't want to accidentally get mixed up in anything I am uncomfortable with (not judgement, just not for me). From context, I have picked up that I should avoid the far end of the beach? I am open to any advice for a first timer!

Also, I am a bit uneasy about talking to people., soI am not sure how/if I should. Should I just completely keep to myself?
