Where do you find decent people?

I really want a fling or something similar. I don't want to get into a serious relationship because I don't think it'd last at 17. But I've been so unlucky with guys everything that could've possible went wrong, went wrong. How do you find decent people? I tried a dating app but got age restricted I didn't really get on with anyone there anyway. Any ideas? I need plans for this summer.

Define what you mean by decent. You're also under age, what's the rush?

Decent: no knives, no druggies, no fraud boys, no young offenders, no rapists, no roadmen, no sex offenders, no nonces. There's no rush I'm just bored.

Yeah because nobody I meet at 17 is going to stick around forever so it doesn't matter too much. I just wanna meet people.
I have just come out of a fling (for him) which he said was a relationship. If you have any feelings, it sucks to be used.

Your risk, I suppose.

I don't get attached very easily. I just want something temporary,

You have trouble finding boys who aren't into crime, fraud, rape, etc?

I don't think you need a dating app and you are very young. It's best if you make friends as everyone else through contacts at School/College or maybe the gym if you are attending one. The more you socialise the more chances you have to meet people at your age or maybe a little older. I can't tell you whether they will be decent though.

Not dating apps places like this or in real life, starting with hobbies is good so if you like gaming online etc

Yes.

Are you sure you're not overreacting? All boys your age are like this?

Just talk to people with whom you have common interests and passions. That's the only way I know how to tell whether someone is legit, get to know them first. What interests you?
