Unfortunately bars are the only place I feel at home anymore. Anytime I almost feel like going to the meetings again, I head to a bar instead and stay until its past my bedtime. I used to be uncomfortable unless I brought friends, but I am regular enough that the waitresses take good care of me on my own too (and I tip well).
I did at least meet the girl I'm curently seeing in a bar. Fun for now, but I don't see it going anywhere.
