What do you men think..... (55)
jlb684: ....when you see a woman alone in a bar?
I ask this because I am not comfortable going to a bar by myself. I only go when I am with others. But it always presents a dilemma for me when I travel, which is mostly alone. I will soon go to an island and I know the days will be fine by myself. I'll go to some beaches, walk around the town, and enjoy the outdoors. But at night, when the town is lively and music is pouring out of the bars and clubs, I know I will want to enjoy the nightlife, but I can't comfortably do this alone. I tend to think that a woman alone at night is viewed as being on the make, wanting to be picked up. But maybe I'm a bit old-fashioned in this regard. So I ask the men here....what do YOU think if you go into a bar and you see a woman by herself?

In all reality do what you want to and don't worry what guys think , they will think what they want to anyway ....I ask this because I am not comfortable going to a bar by myself.

jessejess47: well take me with you ,problem solved.....
What's your preference? Naxos or Skopelos? I want to go to an island that I haven't yet been to, but if you'd prefer Santorini or Mykonos, I don't mind.

For whatever it's worth, you're right most men would think that but should not stop you unless you feel totally uncomfortable. You only live once and you never know a soulmate could be right next to you. At least give yourself the opportunity, go check it out 1/2 hr., if you don't like it leave. If you're still uneasy call 1-800-dr-bombay

I don't feel that it would be a big deal in a vacation atmosphere, nor, for that matter, otherwise. JMO. Sit at the bar and chat with
the bartender while enjoying the atmosphere, and maybe you'll hook with some other women in the same situation who you can speak with, who knows?

Thanks for the responses. Interestingly, my thoughts are being substantiated by what you men are telling me. There IS a stigma associated with being a woman alone in a bar. I don't plan on drinking it up every night I'm on vacation, but I do know that I will want to get out at night and enjoy what everyone else is enjoying, at least once or twice. So I will take the advice about giving it a go, knowing that I can simply get up and leave if I feel too uncomfortable. After all, it's my vacation and I'm entitled, right? Right!

I have to say i just assume their waiting for their boyfriend/partner etc.
If a woman came upto me to say hello in a bar i wouldn't be thinking anything other than "hello" and make her laugh until her boyfriend arrives.
It's real easy when you don't have esteem issues

I think the location makes a difference. I wouldnt go onto a bar in the city here alone but have done on holidays.
Cant beat sitting in a comfy chair on a balmy night sipping a cold glass of wine watching the world go by.
I remember sitting on the verandah of a hotel in Sorrento, a half bottle of wine in front of me, looking out over the bay and toasting myself, yes, myself, I reflected on my life and how far I had travelled and congratulated myself. It was a lovely feeling.
Go for it girl.

Toasting yourself and congratulating yourself over a bottle of wine in Sorrento....I LIKE the sound of that, Vonney! Here's another toast to you.
