New research has found that over half of people in the UK aged 18-30 feel unsafe or uncomfortable on a night out, with a further 43% admitting to having been left on their own in a bar or a club.
I don't know if that confirmed why it must be to some people a good idea to stay at home and do something instead rather than going to a bar or club and being left on your own. I have few friends anyway and if I went there alone I might start feeling like some weirdo sitting on his own staring at all the other people having fun and chances are I doubt anyone will walk up to me and interact with me or I might come across people I don't know there I may feel uncomfortable with. I seem to think sometimes these places can become places where someone will look at you and feel threatened and then start intimidating you especially if they themselves have had a bit to drink. I maybe slightly over-reacting on this, as I know people just have a drink and a laugh with friends for the night just to get away from the problems we don't see in their own private lives but that's how I feel.
I was never a bar or club person even though I went to one club once and didn't like it because of the flashing lights and maybe the noise inside and so I spent the rest of the night outside the club until the people I was with had finished.
