The bars and night club scene isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, however it is fine to flirt in this situation. Bars and night clubs offer a fun and relaxed atmosphere and often have many interesting people. However, there are some precautions that should be taken before you start fluttering those eyelids.
The bar and nightclub scene will likely involve alcohol. You need to be aware of how much you have had before you start flirting. Keep in mind that after about 3 or 4 rum and cokes, everyone starts to look slightly more attractive. They also seem much more interesting. You certainly don’t have to have an alcohol free night but just keep an eye on how much you do take in. It does affect everyone’s judgment.
Also, when flirting in this venue remember, this is likely the first time you have met this person. Take things slow and be direct. If you don’t want things to progress past a certain point then put the brakes on. A little embarrassment and ego bruising now can save you from some dire consequences later.
Finally, have someone with you. You don’t have to spend the entire evening together but check on each other from time to time. Those with bad intentions are a lot less likely to approach those in a pack.
Using bars and night clubs for flirting opportunities is fine provided a few precautions are taken.
