I feel like majority of people who go out on the weekend with friends typically don’t like to be bothered? Most of the time my friends and I will only stay in our little group and try to not approach people out of respect and not wanting to come off as weird. But on the other hand, I feel like we miss out on meeting really cool people! Of course all scenarios are different, and no one wants to talk to someone who is belligerently drunk – but what is the overall consensus when approaching people when going out??

Why would you go to a social event to not be social?
It’s really a mixed bag. Some do it to meet others. Some for other reasons.
I mean, people like to be approached by people they’re attracted to. I think that’s the rule of thumb. It doesn’t matter where it is. If whomever is being approached thinks the approachee is attractive/confident/not creepy—it doesn’t matter where it is.
Sometimes I see groups of girls looking mean and cool at the bar, I dont talk to them. I look for girls who seem approachable.
You’re out in public at a place where people socialize and drunk. Sure it can depend on the vibes and atmosphere of a bar. Definitely yes a busy loud club is a place to meet new people. I’d say a bit less if it’s a small chill local brewery. But I’ve chatted with people randomly at either.
