I got a piece of advice once, "Never date a guy you meet at a bar." Is there any truth to this?

Yes, people who hang out in bars tend to be alcholics
-
You might date him for the fun of it, he might not be a good prospective husband!
-
I'd never date a man I met in a bar
-
I don't like using the word "never." You might find a nice person such as yourself just looking to find a mate. You just have to use common sense in weeding out the losers- who usually reveal themselves pretty quickly. It's like people who say they would NEVER date anyone from the internet. If I'd listened to that advice, I wouldn't have met the love of my life. Keep open all your possibilities and trust your instincts to tell you who and what is right for you.

Let me buy another drink and we can discuss that theory...Wow you have beautiful eyes hun...hey bartender another drink for the beautiful lady... Compliments and drinks will get a guy past most of your defenses(if he is good enough) Plus when your drinking you sometimes end up with someone you would not normally be with and might regret.
-
NOPE..im a bartender and i meet lovely ladies at the bar all the time..im a true gentelmen but never a gentle man!
-
Yes,only because I never go 2 bars.
-
hell yes!!!! This a bee hive for the sex only, no strings mentality!

I think it depends on the bar. The sports bars and grills are okay; the meat-market dance clubs? NO. I learned that lesson the hard way.
-
i met mine in one! but we were both sober
-
Could be but I married someone I met in a bar, long, long ago and it's worked out pretty damn well.
-
This way of thinking is very common, but what most forget is that they may meet the same guy in the supermarket, at the gym, on the beach or during a walk in the forest. A guy that may be just once or five times in a year at the bar...does other things too.
-
it all depends, i met one of my best guy friends in the bar, he is like my brother, so i guess finding a guy to date could all work the same, it depends on the circumstances that surrond it
-
Nope. He could be a great guy. But if he turns out to be a drunk, don't whine, you knew the chance existed.

I met my guy on msn but we met up many other times in the club and danced and hung out and talked. We started off easy going and neither of us really wanted anything serious but our relationship grew and we fell in love. We've been together for a year now and he's the best thing that ever happened to me. We rarely go out as often as we used to now we tend to stay in and have a few on those nights when we want to.

Never is a word that limits possibilities. Although you're probably not going to find someone worth your time at a bar, it is still possible. Sometimes, regardless of where you meet, there may be someone just like you who actually wants to be in a committed relationship.

i've dated guys i've met from the bar and they turned out to be sweet and they start courting me... =) maybe it's ok to date a guy you meet at the bar, but just don't put all your trust on him. just enjoy his company... =)
-
I went home with a guy I met at a bar over 21 years ago...He's still here:)
-
As long as you can accept the fact that the night you met, all he wanted was sex, then you're ok. Men go to bars to get drunk and try to get laid. and that's all. No one goes downtown looking for their soul mate.

Can you believe that someone would come to a bar to find a spouse?!
