    Any straights here venture into them?

    I have a date with an incredibly awesome girl tomorrow, with her and her friends at a gay bar.

    Should be interesting.


    EDIT: I KNOW Speedy will have a coment for this. ;)

    i work in a place where i am the only non-gay guy. I go to gay bars all the time. you might feel a little uncomfortable at 1st but since you are going with a girl you might not get hit on. the whole gay bar/straight bar thing is over done. just relaxed and if some guy is giving a blow job to another guy in the washroom don't look it is rude. have fun

    also walked into one with a group of guys in manhattan on new years eve once. bartender comes over and says a dude from across the bar wants to buy me a drink. me, being the "non-chalant blind drunk alchoholic high on new years" person that i am, scream across the bar my appreciation and thanks. bartender tells me to take it easy, it's a long night. at about that time i realize the circumstances and scenery in which we just walked into. my friends were all outside placing bets on how long i'd be in there before i figured it out. 14 minutes. god i was drunk. got a free beer though.

    Sounds similar to my experience. :D

    I did something like that once in Greenwich Village NYC. I was thirsty and needed a drink went into this bar I think called The Monster? While walking in had an eerie feeling something was up, all eyes on me kind of thing. Ordered a beer and took a closer look at my surroundings only to notice was nothing but men in there. I did one of those beer flying spills all over the guy next me and shouted "Oh Shit there's nothing but men in here". The place grew quiet, finished my beer and I apologized to the guy with beer all over he replied "it' ok honey, want to help me clean up" I told him thanks but no thanks and hurried out of there.

    My brother in law and sister who stayed outside knew it was a gay but said nothing. They wanted to know how I would handle being in there.

    Peace

    I had a friend in college who is gay and occasionally I'd go to the gay bar with him and some of his straight and gay friends.

    Gotta say, for a straight guy, gay bars are actually a GREAT place to meet chicks.
    Not sure why, but I met quite a few straight chicks in that gay bar.

    I dated one for a while and when people would ask us how we met, the whole gay bar story was always fun. :lol:


    Bottom line. If you are straight and have a gay friend, go with him sometime because the (straight) chicks in gay bars are incredibly easy to approach.

    LOL!!! Almost!

    Really it was a bar of nerdy gay guys acting goofy. No one came on to me. It wasn't bad at all and date went AWESOME!

    She was not what I expected. Very shy in person. We had only been texting before and she seemed very out-going and sarcastic. In person she was georgeous! Her friends, straight and gay really liked me and she was already texting again me barely 10 minutes after I left.

    I sense a second date soon. Gay bar, where ever, it was worth it! 8-)

    Years and years ago my husband and his friend found themselves in a gay bar down in San Diego (they had no clue). The first tip off was when the waiter asked if they wanted a cocktail. How often do bartenders or waiters use that term?? :D:lol:

    Had to go three times because of all the drinking. I was the only one in each time.. wheew! 8-)

    I was so focused on her and her friends, I didn't even care what else was going on around me.

    My buddy was disturbed by two dudes humping on the dance floor. lol.

    So gay bar girl is going really good so far..


    But she's on the other side a of the world for a few weeks!!! I'm loosing my mind! We haven't spoke in a week. She's on vacation and I don't want to trouble her with a text that will probably cost her a buck, IF she even can get it.

    Do I still try to send the text, or chill the hell out for another week???

    I will go with chill out for a week. only because i would probably text, and I always do what you are not supposed to do.

    so just chill gets my vote. ;)
    Peace, Love.

    I know. I kind of just want to know she's still alive though.. I guess if she couldn't get the text and I didn't know she couldn't, I'd just worry even more though. :?

    well, then again, if she's not alive, your text wont bring her back.
    ;)
    that's what i told myself a few weeks ago when i was in a similar situation, minus the whole gay bar thing, ahaha :D

    lol, true.. I'll probably break before the end of the week. Don't want to bug her until her vacation is winding down. Don't want to ignore her either.
